Due to the holidays, I don't have a lot of time to listen but assume Doot Doot is #1. Nice site!

Over three hours for 10 songs x 2 hosts, who has the time? 20 songs usually averages 75- 80 minutes playtime. The other hour and a half plus is banter. Good idea to include the scroll bar for FF purposes.

Spoiler alert: The Motels, Depeche Mode, Roxy Music, "I Want Candy", "Melt With You" and "Bizzare Love Trangle" get left off the list in favor of "Down Under" by Men At Work. Ouch.

Phew! I thought you were going to say "get left off in favor of Doot Doot".

I haven't heard the whole thing yet, but with the exception of The Pixies, I would says that what I heard were solid new wave hits. One suggestio would be to tighten it up a bit. American Top 40 always did 40+ songs in three hours. Even with the trivia, this could be two hours with 20 songs.
