With Rich Appel
that thing with Rich Appel is the only classic hits radio show that brings back the sound - not just the songs!
If you loved the era of fast-paced top 40 radio - where DJs talked up to the vocals, acappella and “shotgun” jingles stood out, and the commercials were almost as good as the hits - you're sure to like that thing with Rich Appel.
that thing is a three-hour celebration of that radio every weekend, highlighting those jingles, commercials and all the hits, with features such as “The Slow Dance Make-Out Song of the Week,” “A Year in an Hour” and “The World’s Shortest Countdown.”
that thing specials include May and June's “Class Reunions,” April's countdown of the annual “I.R.S. (as in, 'It Really Shoulda' been a bigger hit!) 10-99," and Super Bowl weekend's "Tele-lection" counting down our listeners' all-time favorite TV show themes.
that thing is built on a foundation of songs carefully (and cleverly) selected for events, birthdays and anniversaries from each show's air dates. It all happens at the Chestnut Cabaret, where Inga handles the refreshments and Rich serves up the music. You can also join the fun on that thing's Facebook page.
that thing with Rich Appel airs every weekend on over 100 radio stations worldwide, many of which run it twice or three times weekly, and several of which air a fourth "best of" Classic thing hour every week.
What is it about that thing with Rich Appel that turns listeners into "Appleheads"? You'll just have to tune in to find out!
