Another reliable chance to hear the entire show will be WTOJ Watertown NY. According to their facebook page they will start 1976 tomorrow morning at 9am.

Last year, some station called Hippie Radio aired the entire Top 100 of 1978 on New Years Eve. I'm not sure if they are still an AT40 affiliate or not.

Next Sunday will be another year enders. I'm thinking about doing the 1973 countdown I reworked where Casey plays back the top 80 and not just the top 40.

Is that a misprint, or is the Lost 45's countdown on New Years' Day really a Top 200?

It appears that was some sort of typo on the WMGN page. Show will air at the normal time -- roughly an hour from now, as I write. Oops! (Interestingly, the "On Air Now" box on the main page says AT40 is on, but it's not. So, confusion reigns this weekend.)

Does anyone know what time this show will start? I don't see it on the website. Find another station, because that one played the 3 Hour version on Saturday. I guess it's gonna be the same on Monday. The time is 12:00 AM (Eastern, in fact not Monday but Tuesday at 00:00 hours), or 9:00 PM Monday (Pacific).

WPNC is playing the Top 100 of 1978. I'm assuming that they started the show at 5:00 (CST), in which case, it would be the severely edited six-hour version. Kind of a disappointment, as I was hoping they'd play the 1976 show.
I wonder if there are any stations that are going to play the full 1976 (or 1985) show over the next few days.

WPNC is currently airing 1977. The next show looks like it will start between 2:45 & 3:00 eastern.

Now WPNC is playing the 1976 year-ender. Like the 1977 show, it looks as though this is the three-hour Top 40 of 1976, edited into three hours like it was in 2009 (and the way it is heard on the iHeartRadio channel during regular rotation).
I'm guessing the Top 36 of 1979 is coming up next.

This is the only time of year (minus the occasional long-distance dedication or extra) when we can hear countdown songs from the opposite time of the year. I just heard John Travolta's June song "Let Her In," which reminds me of the end of the school year and the beginning of summer. "Rhiannon" was a June song as well. We'll have lots more June songs for your December listening pleasure, such as "Sara Smile," "Shannon," "Silly Love Songs," and many more. In June, the only December songs we'd hear would be extras and LDDs. I must admit that the Travolta song was a guilty pleasure. Because I was not a TV watcher, I never recalled hearing the name until mid-June 1976, when "Let Her In" made the top 40. I am sure my 8th-grade classmates, most of them avid TV watchers, had heard of Travolta as far back as Fall 1975.
Have a happy New Year.
June-ingly years,
Bob R.

Nope, part 2 of the top 80 of '74 (the top 40) is starting now on WPNC. ...checking in again, after actually doing real-life things for a few hours, I see that WPNC is now one-third through the top 40 of '73. Oooh, that means the big 'whaaat?' at #2 is coming up in just under two hours. So they seem to be going backward a year at a time, with the exception of 1975, which was for some reason skipped.
