  • More Popular Replacement: Bob Kingsley was this to Don Bowman, having helmed the show for considerably longer and playing roles in its expansion and success.
  • Replacement Scrappy: Many longtime fans of the show dislike Kix Brooks for his high, whiny voice and "chummy" attitude towards artists, not to mention the corporate decision to cut the show from 40 to 30 because program directors were "uncomfortable" with the newness of the 31-40 songs. Meanwhile, many professional deejays hate Kix for quickly rising in the ranks of professional radio hosts despite a lack of experience.
  • Suspiciously Similar Song: Late in the Kingsley era, the commercial bumpers were often sound-alikes of country songs.
  • Values Dissonance: Many of Don Bowman's jokes certainly wouldn't make it to air today, such as the time that he read a listener complaint about his jokes on-air and said that the letter looked like it was written in crayon.
