Another change, per the Sirius XM Lineup & Guide is: Sunday is now 10 am EST, instead of 9 am as it previously was.
Here are all the episodes (all U.S. EST):
Friday 9 pm (same) Saturday, 11 am, 5 pm (same), Midnight Sunday, 6 am (same) 10 am (change from 9 am), 4pm (same), and 8pm (new) Monday, per Laura, 1 am EST and as previously pointed out, 1 pm (change from 11 am)
Total 10, down from earlier in 2023 when it was 11 with Tuesday 6 pm dropped
If I missed anything or misrepresented, please feel free to correct.

It also plays at 2am central Mondays but it doesn't show up on the schedule.

So that does make 11 total--that sure is a lot of replays!

Hopefully they go with 12/28 because it'll be closer to Christmas, and with them calling it the "12/27" chart most likely, it would be even closer.

Any word on a special for 12-29-23? If not, they will end the year with 1988. They can go with 12-31-88 (12-30-88) to them, which is a "frozen chart" duplicated from 12-24-88. I am hoping for a special, just in case they do 1989 in the first few weeks of 2024. 1985 is a good choice for next week since 1986 won't be in the rotation in early January. 1984 could be played in January, but hopefully not on 1-5-24.

I'm hoping they just repeat the Big 1000 or something, without their yapping.

It would be great if there is a special on 12-29-23, because if 1988 is played on that date, the next year in rotation would be 1980, which we had last year, the first Friday in January 2023. 1987 would follow, which wouldn't be too bad since 1986 was played on 12-1-23. I won't go too far in the future, but next would be 1984, and 1983 was played on 12-8-23.
I will keep checking the 80's on 8 Home Page and notify if I see anything.

I can’t complain much about a January 1980 Big 40 show, given that it naturally can’t replicate songs from a countdown they played shortly before. (If we get a December 1979 AT40 then it does feel somewhat redundant, but 80s on 8 can’t necessarily be blamed for that as the various Decades channels don’t seem to coordinate with each other.)
At least we probably won’t get January 1983 or 1986 given that we just had December countdowns from each of those years, as well as from 1982 and 1985 which would mean repeating most of the same songs from January of the following years.

Yes, but if it is played on 1-5-24, it is exactly a year since it was played. With nine other years to play, something different?

I just checked the Facebook Page for 80's and 8, and as of this writing, there is nothing about any special for next Friday, so I am guessing we will get a regular show that day. 1988 won't be a bad choice, because 1989 was played rather recently, so not likely for 1-5-24. Mixed reactions to next in rotation: 1980--no songs on this channel, but will be lots of repeats for folks like me that listen to Premiere that is doing 1979 this weekend.

I just checked the app and they uploaded this special called the "Big 80s New Year's Number 1's". I only listened to a bit of it but it's not a countdown.
I finished going through it and all it is is every New Year's #1 in the '80s. It doesn't even last an hour. If that's the special then it's a little underwhelming.

No Alan for '12/27/85' errors should be way down

Can't wait to get what'll essentially be a repeat of 12/24 last year followed by a repeat of 1/5/80 to kick off the new year.
