Today we are going to discuss the different nationwide country music programs that are aired on the radio. There are many different types of shows. For example, there are countdowns, a show that lets you listen to the music live from the country musician’s concerts, and just plain playing country music, call in your request shows.
The first type of country shows we are going to talk about are the countdowns. The first countdown show is the American Country Countdown with Kix Brooks. This show is hosted by Brooks & Dunn’s Kix Brooks. Kix started doing this show a couple of years ago. Every week he counts down the hit singles out on the radio, along with chatting with the country stars. The next countdown show on the radio is Bob Kingsley’s Country Top 40. Bob has been hosting this show for four years. The show counts down the top 40 hits in country music and of course Bob talks to the country stars about their music. He also takes some requests from listeners to play a song that has some meaning to them. The next countdown show is Country Countdown USA with Lon Helton. This show is hosted by Lon Helton and every week he has a different country artist helping him countdown the week’s hottest hits. Lon also talks to various country stars about their music and concerts.
The next type of national radio show is The Road. This is about going to a country musician’s concert to hear what their music sounds like live. They move to many different artists in one show, that way the country fans that can’t make it to the concerts are able to hear what their music sounds like live.
The last type of show is the request shows that mostly play music. The first show is the Bo Reynolds Show. This show is hosted by Bo Reynolds and he has been on the radio for over 25 years. On this show, Bo talks to different country artists, has many contests and has live requests over the air. He also plays many other songs while on air for four to six hours. The next show is The Big Time with Whitney Allen. This is another show request show that is on every night. The host is Whitney Allen and she talks about what is happening in country music. She does take requests and has many contests. The last show I am going to tell you about is After Midnite. This show is hosted by Blair Garner and he plays music for the people that are up after midnight. He takes requests and does contests for the people still listening to him.
So now you have heard about a few of the shows on the radio and can decide what you want to hear. I hope you will enjoy.
