I've been a regular listener of CT40 since this past December. It's been a little challenging to find radio stations and times that play this show since Fitz took over, as there's no directory on the website.
Fitz is pretty good, IMO. Fun to listen to. He does a great job. Bob Kingsley's shoes aren't easy to fill. I'm glad the show has continued since his passing. I much prefer CT40 to ACC (2006 to present).
Anyway, many of us know the current situation regarding Morgan Wallen. His song in this week's countdown at #26 was indeed skipped. Not surprised.

It will be interesting to see if next week that Morgan Wallen's song is off the chart completely (already has for the Billboard charts, I wouldn't be surprised if Mediabase 24/7 does the same thing).

This weekend (5/15), Rascal Flatts' song, "How They Remember You", dropped from #2 to #23. That's quite a fall! But what's more remarkable is, just last week they jumped from 7-2! Listening to the next show, I certainly didn't expect to hear that song before the halfway point.

Can you imagine listening to a countdown show where a song you like is at #2, and then disappears the following week? We'll, that's exactly what happened on this past weekend's Country Top 40. The song? "Forever After All" by Luke Combs. It shot up to #1, spent 3 weeks, fell to #2, stayed for 2 weeks, then off the 40 completely. Wow.

Bump, after almost three years! Currently listening to this weekend's show, and "We Don't Fight Anymore" by Carly Pearce and Chris Stapleton plummeted from #3 to #39. But here's the even stranger stat: It had jumped from #10 to #3 the previous week, earning it the Leap Of The Week!!! What a crazy turnaround. Fitz also mentioned this week that it has been in the countdown for FIFTY weeks, almost a full year.
Fitz is a treat to listen to, along with all the country hits out there.

This week's country chart from Mediabase gives me flashbacks to Billboard's chart dated 10/30/1982. Only one song fell, which was last week's #1 to #2 (like that 1982 chart), and everything else held position or moved up slightly. Last week's #2 fell off the top 40.
