What's that? You want two hours of hits, headlines and hijinks from this day in 1984? Well, I suppose we could throw an #OffTheChart together. Get over to madwaspradio.com, we'll be there in five minutes. #MadWaspRadio offthechart.show/27-july-1984… pic.twitter.com/G1odYp7rYw

It's Tuesday, so it's #OffTheChart day! Join us at 9pm on @MadWaspRadio for incendiary trains, a song that jinxes careers, songs to annoy Frankie, the missing link between Stars On 45 and Mel Brooks, and some hits from this day in 1984 if there's time. offthechart.show/27-july-1984… pic.twitter.com/j4HKVG6jlr

One final call for requests for the #OffTheChart summer special - we need them pretty much immediately! Favourite '80s summer records, or records that remind you of summer in the '80s, if you please. offthechart.show/summer/

Right, come on then, #OffTheChart time! We're going back to this day in 1983 on madwaspradio.com - tune in now and speculate about what kind of technical cock-up made it sound like it was recorded in an Anderson shelter this week. offthechart.show/13-july-1983… #MadWaspRadio pic.twitter.com/J1jI88IAAY

It's #OffTheChart day again on @MadWaspRadio! Join us at 9pm for capital punishment, a political car crash, an unexpected newsflash, the most boring piece of music in the world and, if there's time, some hits from this day in 1983! offthechart.show/13-july-1983… pic.twitter.com/1j74rGJaB8

It's Tuesday, so it must be #OffTheChart day! Hang on... *checks notes* Yes it is! Join us at 9pm on @MadWaspRadio for 2 hours of 1987, including glass eyes, prostitutes, sharply-worded letters, a Blue Peter presenter who fell 27 miles, and fried chicken. offthechart.show/6-july-1987/ pic.twitter.com/gEntDph1Wf
