Casey Kasem will die in the next few months … this according to a rep for Casey’s wife Jean.
As we reported, Casey and Jean were sued by a former caregiver who claimed she was mistreated and cheated by Jean during her employment with the couple. The housekeeper, Hilda Loza, sued in small claims court and the case was heard Friday. …

Can't you come up with anything or anyone else?..........Sheesh!

I often listen to his old countdowns Saturday mornings on the SiriusXM 70s channel. You’re right. A trip down memory lane.
Gee, I saw a school play by 1st graders that was much more believable than that phony act performed for the TV cameras today.
Why not the Top 50? Or the Top 75?
Top 40 makes no sense. So you are in a band that records a catchy song and it makes it to number 41 in the Billboard Hot 100. Not a shabby achievement. Yet it never really was a hit because Casey Kasem never introduced it on the radio. Not even a sappy long distance dedication from a knocked up waitress named Gladys Knoblock in Joplin, Missouri to some truck driver hurtling down I-10 someplace in Tucson, Arizona desperately trying to get the heck away from Gladys. (Song was "Don't Give Up On Us Baby" by David Soul.)
Why you might not even have bothered recording the song at all!
The Top 40 is just so...arbitrary. A kick in the stomach for recording artists that fell just short of it.
I need to know...why the Top 40?
Like zoiks, man! Who will take over the role of Shaggy?!
Because that's how many songs were in a radio stations playlist. 40 new songs from the top of the charts. That way as soon as a song dropped out of the top 40, a newer song that was maybe number 48 the week before now entered the Top 40 and would get airplay. 100 new songs are too many to play at any given time what with re-currents (last years songs) and oldies to play too. If a radio station played the top 100, you would never hear your favorite top 40 song (the ones that grab the most listeners) more than once a day.
Thank you Inyo, for finally telling me who this person is. Never heard of him.
You welcome. I know the feeling. Still trying to figure out what Kim Kardashion (spelling?) is famous for.
Typical current day FReeper response that is to be expected........ Just curious, where did you hear what you claim you heard? The only thing I know about Kasem was his radio program.............
I know he specifically endorsed Obambi along with most of the rest of Hollyweird
Casey was in a classic movie, the Incredible 2-Headed Transplant.
She went LEZBO years ago.
Sorry, I’m a moron - I don’t get the punchline (understood the English and Danish parts).
Mr Kassem was originally from Egypt. He (when he told it) thought that you told them where you were from, and they would bring you appropriate food.
“She went LEZBO years ago.”
What a shame.
