Talk Stations Doing Retro Top-40 Weekends



I wonder how many other former top-40 stations now all-talk have
 done Holiday weekend "Retro Top-40" weekends. And of those, how many
 others besides WABC and WRKO have used talkmasters to introduce the
 music.

It would be one thing if these stations had a talk host who was once a
 top-40 "jock" either at that station (before the format change) or
 elsewhere, but having talkmasters who are very experienced at hosting
 talk shows--but know nothing about trying to do music shows--just
 doesn't cut it.

Perhaps WODS-103.3 could do what it's sister WCBS-FM in New York has
done on occassion--and that is, to do a retro weekend with the actual
 "big names" from the past. It would be MUCH better than what WRKO,
 WABC and maybe others have done.
