I briefly caught a few minutes of the ACC year end countdown this morning. First off, I thought it was strange that it aired this weekend rather than last weekend. Secondly, I thought it was even more strange that a guest host was doing the show! Two years ago, Michael Jay hosted the 2005 year end show when Bob first made the switch. And now Kix isn't even on his own year end show? The host was a woman who, in the 20 minutes I listened, never gave her name. I thought it was quite strange.

Bob was known to do the countdown the first week of January sometimes so that really isn't unusual. He did the Top 50 of 2003 the first week in January 04 as a matter of face, whereas everyone else had already wrapped their year end shows up.
As far as the guest host, all I can say is wow! There really seems to be no interest on that show being anything respectable anymore. Not hosting your programs year end show is the equivalent of having Kenny Albert fill in for Joe Buck for pbp in the Superbowl this year.

For some reason back in the late 90s, there was a year when Dick Clark did not host the year-end edition of his "U.S. Music Survey" countdown. Jeff Robbins, his usual fill-in, did the show, explaining that "Dick was in NYC for New Year's Eve." Made no sense since the year-end show is usually done a couple of weeks in advance of the holidays.

Yeah, thats what's odd about this too. I don't know when they would normally record the year end shows but it could have been done anytime probably in the last 3-4 weeks. I am sure they could have gotten hold of BB's year end country chart and gone with it. It isnt like the show was live and he was tied up when it would normally run.
Really Busch League, IMO.
