<p><strong>Episode 93: The Week Ending July 29, 1978 Magnet and Steel, Stuff Like That</strong></p><p><strong>Well if you thought the show was gone, you’d be a fool to think it’s over. We’re not sure if you really missed us, but boy did we miss you, and at least we’d like to ask if we can still be friends.&nbsp;Please stay a little bit longer.&nbsp;It seems like lately I’ve been bluer than blue, but I’ve had enough of that, and I’m not gonna let it bother me tonight. As we listen to the Billboard Top 40 from the week of June 29, 1978, it reminds us of listening to the songs on the FM radio. The songs still sound the same.
