THE RECORD BREAKER! 30 hours of me nonstop and awake (that's right, didn't sleep and didn't leave) to bring the metal! Special thanks to DJ Doom, DJ Speedy, DJ Detektiv, DJ Panchito, and DJ SpicyPumpkins (sorry about any misspellings) for coming in and helping out. Most importantly, rest in peace Ronnie James Dio, you will be missed by all of us. This show was now for you. Here's all 30 hours of charting, done here because it would take forever to make an actual playlist. Have a good summer!

Hello radio peoples! This week during finals weekend I will be attempting to break the WONY record for longest consecutive show. As of right now the minimum 29 hour marathon will be starting Saturday around noon. Listen to us as we try to make history or something!

If you listened to my show at all last semester, then A) Hi Mom!, and B) you know the deal. My music collection has become so extensive that I like to challenge myself with my playlists, and will usually only play any given band once a semester. Exceptions include Rush, which I play every week, rotation, holiday specials, and requests. To give you an idea of what to expect, and because I like lists, here's what I've played so far this semester. (Last semester I played "Schism" by Tool about 6 times, so don't be afraid to request! Except "Schism")

3 Inches of Blood

Since I've managed to obtain a fairly expansive selection of music, I've decided to challenge myself to only play one song by any given band this semester (excluding Rush, of course). For those that are curious, here's a list of bands I've already played. This doesn't mean I will refuse requests for them, I just won't be adding them to the playlist I make up beforehand. Also, rotation bands don't count.

The Accused
AC/DC
Acid Bath
Alchemist
Annihilator
Anvil
Ark
The Beyond
Bigelf
Biomechanical
Black Sabbath
Blind Guardian
