This weekend was Casey Kasem's last Show

Tuned into ABC World News tonight and they said it was Casey's last show this weekend. He left fairly abrubtly even catching many stations by surprise. Someone please tell me what show he was still hosting. He left AT40 five years ago. My brain must be on snooze. I'm embarassed to admit that I wasn't even aware that he was still on the air. Was he still on in Providence anywhere?
 
AT20 was Hot AC, AT10 was AC. No stations in Boston, Providence, or Cape Cod carried these shows. 106.5 WBMW may have carried AT10, but I'm not 100% sure.
 
Hopefully when the time comes Seacrest will know when to leave. Like maybe next week.
 
AT20 (Hot AC) used to air on 96.5 TIC in Hartford, Sunday mornings 9am-noon. I listened to it on average about once a month via the stream. I will certainly miss it.
 
If anyone's interested, I am listening to 96.5 TIC right now and I just heard a promo for AT40 The '80s. They apparently picked this up in place of the retired AT20. It's on Sundays at 8am beginning this Sunday. I wonder if it's the same countdown each week that Sirius XM '80s on 8 airs? I'll find out this weekend.

As far as Casey's retirement is concerned, he certainly couldn't have picked a better weekend to do so. For it was on Independence Day 1970 that he began the "American Top 40" franchise.

Yeah and coincidently he stopped broadcasting when the King Of Pop died. That seems eerily fitting.
