The iheart content is simply run over the local ads on those stations. I don't believe there is a requirement for how much must run. I just think Saturday and Sunday nights may have more ad time because they don't always have the shows, and for AT40 to run on time you are limited to just 5 minutes of local ads per hour. If the hour is typically scheduled to have 10 or more and the traffic director (ad traffic not car traffic) doesn't adjust for weeks they put it an extra AT40- thats how you get these long shows

Prediction for next week's show:
1st Guess: 11/9/74 2nd Guess: 11/11/78
I think it should be a 1974 show next week--the only reservation I have is that it means the last 4 shows (and 5 of the last 6) will have been from between 1970 and '75. Guess that means we'll be due for a late 70's run in the next month or so?

Guess that means we'll be due for a late 70's run in the next month or so? Not sure that'll include 1978 next week, though, since it'll only have been two weeks since many stations played it as a "B" offering. More likely in another week or two. Also, if Premiere continues to do as they did for the last couple of years, starting next week or the week after there may only be only one regular A show, from any year, offered each week until the year-end show, with the B shows to 70s affiliates (and maybe some 80s ones) consisting entirely of holiday music.

Did Premiere do the intermediate hour opens differently on 10.14.78?

Loudermilk writing "Indian Reservation" to free himself from captivity.

Not sure why--sounded a little strange after hearing it the one way several hundred times by now. I'd be curious to know if it was intentional or an oversight...

I'm thinking that it was some time in 1975 that they found out it was a hoax--if so, this would likely have been the last time this story was told by Casey.

So the cause of the long-running shows is nothing more than WODC setting things up so the nighttime special airings are allowed to run over without dropping any optional extras. The extra ads due to the timeslot normally having more local ad time available (because it isn't normally scheduled for syndicated programming like AT40) is why the optional extras were being dropped in the first place, and it's why the shows are running so far over now that the optional extras are being left in. The 10/14/78 show ran so extremely far over simply because it had four hours' worth of extra ads instead of the usual three hours' worth.

Predictions for extras: Queen - We Will Rock You/We Are The Champions Player - Baby Come Back Rod Stewart - You're In My Heart Since both shows have been played in the last 3 years, the optional extras will likely stay the same. If that's the case, the 11/5/77 extras were: * "Baby Come Back" by Player * "You're In My Heart" by Rod Stewart * "(Love Is) Thicker Than Water" by Andy Gibb If it's the 11/12/77 show, then the extras played two years ago were: * "Just The Way You Are" by Billy Joel * "Wasted Days & Wasted Nights" by Freddy Fender (original extra) * "We Are The Champions" by Queen Again, this assumes we will get either the 11/5/77 show or 11/12/77.

Assuming that the Milwaukee station is right, I think it'll be 11/5/77. A show played just two years ago is probably too recent an airing for Premiere to rerun, unless it's a "B" show coupled with another.

If it's 11/5/77, it's a repeat from 2011, and 11/12/77 was aired in both 2010 and in 2012. Either one would be sort of a strange choice--why not air 11/19/77?
