According to KZOY's website, they have apparently dropped both shows and the Daily Dees, as the show's midnight to 5:00 AM slot now just says "More Music Overnight". I can’t really say I blame them.

In the 1985 show, Rick mentioned the adult contemporary chart before playing “Sugar Walls.” Is this the only time he’s ever referenced that specific chart while doing a Top 40 show?
Aside from when Ryan Seacrest was filling in for Casey, I only remember him mentioning it once. And that was in 2004 when he was talking about Foreigner having a hit on that chart.
It’s also extremely rare to hear anybody on the radio say “hot AC.” I was listening to the Country Top 30 and they interviewed Maren Morris this weekend who mentioned the hot AC chart.

KKMK is playing 03/09/2002 tonight. The sure shot is "A New Day Has Come" by Celine Dion. This is the 4th airing of this show in retro-Dees, the most recent being 03/06/2021.
Cher is listed as a co-host for this show.

I'm only here for the last hour after AT40 80s ended on WQSR, but no Cher yet that I've heard.

Cher is listed as a co-host for this show. That came from the info you passed along to me a few months back. If in fact she's not a co-host here, then that guide is wrong, too.

I really enjoyed the 1990 show, which I did not hear in 2012.
It was nice to hear the full version of "Sacrifice." Lately I've just been hearing it as part of a medley.
Sad to think that the guest Tommy Page would go on to commit suicide in 2017.
Also, I believe I heard that staff member Madeline Minch, who went out on the street to get people to sing Madonna songs, had died in the last 10 years.
Odd version of "All Around the World" played. Later that year, Shadoe Stevens would regularly play a weird version of another of Lisa's songs, "This Is The Right Time."
Rick talked about Ellen K. When did she make her first WT40 appearance? Aside from guest hosting, she'd go on to have "The Rhythm Countdown With Ellen K" and now has her own morning show.
Another future countdown host, Hollywood Hamilton, also appears in the show.
From 32 years ago, the drop pieces of "The Simpsons" are still fairly relevant today, although Homer's voice sounds a lot different now.
Finally, funny to hear Rick point out that a lot of songs were either moving up or down just one notch this week. That'd be a weekly feature in the 2000s.

So I can guess Mar 17, 2001 is new to the app though Yes. Nearly all Dees 2K app selections will be new (I think maybe one or two...ever? have not, and that's in a nearly five-year span).

The app has updated Dees 2K to March 17, 2001. The other two are still pending. The 90s now show March 15, 1997, only previously played in 2009 on XM. (SS: Real McCoy "One More Time") Still waiting on the 80s...apparently we're doing this piecemeal today. ETA: Now finally up, the 80s have March 11, 1989 (it's captioned as the 18th, but the Sure Shot is "Like a Prayer", which makes it the 11th) - this being its third time up, most recently in June (?!?) 2018.
