How to read these playlists...

Programs air on Friday and Saturday nights in the US starting at Midnight Eastern Time (5 AM GMT). Friday Midnight is the start of Saturday morning, and Saturday Midnight is Sunday morning. If you are in Central Time subtract 1 hour, in Mountain Time subtract 2 hours, in Pacific Time subtract 3 hours, or add 5 hours for GMT.    Some stations shift the program a few hours later. Your mileage may vary. 

Each program runs a total of seven hours although not all stations carry all seven hours. The last piece at the end of each hour is an unannounced 40-sec fill segment that is not heard on all stations.
