Casey's Top 40

1989-1998


Casey's Top 40 was a CHR/Pop music countdown program that was hosted by Casey Kasem for the Westwood One radio network. Kasem joined Westwood One after eighteen years of hosting American Top 40 for Watermark/ABC Radio Networks.

Casey's Top 40 premiered on January 21, 1989 nationwide and took the place of American Top 40, which was taken over by Shadoe Stevens after Kasem's departure, in a significant number of U.S. media markets. The show ran until March 21, 1998.
