Their goof-up does come with a price, however. Since they wasted time with about fifteen minutes of a different show, I guess they need to play catch-up, which means cutting out chunks of the show at random times. For instance, I believe they went from the outro to "Soul Kiss" into the middle of "Sleeping Bag" by ZZ Top (skipping over "Lovin' Every Minute Of It" by Loverboy in the process) and just now, they jumped from "One Night Love Affair" by Bryan Adams to David Foster's "Love Theme From St. Elmo's Fire". I seem to remember another one earlier in the show, but I'm not sure. Yeah, that's probably the reason. Missed the earlier 'chops'.

A bit of a jump there, cutting off the end of Brian Adams and the beginning of David Foster. Maybe the board operator is still imbibing... They also went from the outro to "Soul Kiss" into the middle of "Sleeping Bag" by ZZ Top (skipping over "Lovin' Every Minute Of It" by Loverboy in the process) earlier in the show.

On the plus side, you WWIS listeners got to hear the one and only "Summer (The First Time)"!

Waiting to see if they delete the hour 3 extra to make up time. Did they play the hour 2 extra? To me, that would make more sense than chopping up the countdown. Nope, they're playing the Survivor extra. Hour four's going to start really late.

I'll go with a computer glitch with WWIS problems with missing #20 and going from Bryan Adams to David Foster. There's no board operator as everything is loaded into a computer system that WWIS is using so there's no need to sit in the studio to baby sit the show although you can baby sit it by listening to it somewhere else like another room at the station or even from home. The segments of the show were put into their computer system earlier in the week. The person who loaded the show to the computer probably put the 70's show segment in by mistake. I also noticed it was a couple of minutes after 1 p.m. local time before they started the show. I don't think that led to the later problems.

On a related topic, I wonder why WWIS doesn't move the show an hour earlier this time of year. WWIS-AM is a 'daytimer' (per Radio Locator) and sunset in Black River Falls today is 4:35PM (yuck!). Which means that the station goes 'dark' at 4:30 in November. I guess the station doesn't care that their over-the-air listeners (all five of them ) don't get to hear the entire show this time of year.

I listened KOKZ, they're playing opt xtras. And opt xtras use 1984 bumper jingles, since that formerly aired in 2011 before.
Burning Heart - one week away hitting countdown. #1 rock - Stevie Nicks - Talk to Me

That record would next be matched and then broken by Whitney Houston, who was in the countdown with the first of what would be seven straight #1’s. Casey also led into “Sleeping Bag” by saying that ZZ Top’s “La Grange” was “the most successful #41 hit of the rock era” as it was on the Hot 100 for the longest. What he didn’t note was that the song was part of the 6/29/74 AT40, when due to time constraints relating to Casey’s acting and the Billboard production schedules, the AT40 staff had to produce a chart based on educated guesses and they incorrectly thought “La Grange” would make the top 40.

My guess for the first weekend of December 2023 (December 2-3, 2023): December 1, 1984 (last played in 2016).
