Kim Komando To Host 2025 Radio Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony.

The Museum of Broadcast Communications has named Kim Komando, 2021 Radio Hall of Fame inductee and one of America’s most successful self-syndicated radio hosts, as Master of Ceremonies for the 2025 Radio Hall of Fame induction ceremony. The event will take place on Thursday, Oct. 30, at the Swissotel Hotel in downtown Chicago.


Tickets are now on sale at radiohalloffame.com, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the Museum of Broadcast Communications as a tax-deductible charitable donation. So far, 350+ attendees have confirmed, making it the second-largest attendance in Radio Hall of Fame history.


A trusted voice in technology and digital lifestyle content for more than three decades, Komando hosts “The Kim Komando Show,” the nation’s largest weekend radio program. Her show airs on more than 420 stations and reaches an estimated six million weekly listeners. She also produces the “Daily Tech Update” and “Digital Life Hacks” reports, heard on nearly 400 stations across the country, and hosts a weekly tech-business program on SiriusXM.


Komando’s media footprint extends beyond radio. Her daily newsletter, “The Current,” boasts more than 700,000 subscribers with one of the highest engagement rates in digital publishing. She has written a long-running column for USA Today since 2002 and contributes to the Daily Mail in both print and online editions.


“We are delighted to have Kim Komando serve as our MC for this year’s Radio Hall of Fame induction ceremony,” Dennis Green, Co-Chair of the Radio Hall of Fame, said in a release. “Kim has been a visionary, trend-setter, and entrepreneur in the digital space before the explosion of all things digital. She has informed and educated audiences across the country like no one else in the genre, and her Hall of Fame career shows no signs of slowing down. Kim was inducted in Chicago, and we are honored to have her back to host this year’s show.”


Kraig T. Kitchin, Co-Chair of the Radio Hall of Fame, added, “We’re grateful to Kim Komando for helping us create a special evening for each of our 2025 inductees. She knows the hard work and dedication it takes to achieve the recognition of such an induction.”
