Chris's Billboard Top 3000 Countdown Podcast
My name is Chris, and this is a fun and informative discussion of Billboard's Top 3000 songs of all-time, based on rankings from the first Billboard U.S. Hot 100 chart in 1958 until the end of the year 2022. Each episode will have me talking about a set of 20 songs in countdown fashion, Casey Kasem style.

Such an incredible set of 20 songs as we dig deeper into the Top 2000 in the rock era, over 65 years! The Beatles are here, of course, plus 7 bridesmaids (songs that peaked at #2). One of the greatest funk riffs of the 70's, a classic cover of one of the most iconic folk songs of all time, and some slippity-slide hip hop from the 90's. And that goofy talk box instrument.
Two special segments on Yacht Rock, is it a good name? Is it a good genre? Is it even a genre?
Come be a part of the greatest countdown podcast ever! We have fans in over 75 countries and over 1000 cities worldwide.
