20 The Countdown Magazine - 20 The Countdown Magazine (12/6/25)

This week on 20 The Countdown Magazine we’re bringing back a listener favorite from last month. It is our special 40th anniversary episode where Jon Rivers, the man who launched the show back in 1985, joins William Ryan III to look at how the show started, how it grew, and how Christian music has changed over four decades. It is packed with great stories, a few laughs, and plenty of moments that remind you why this show has lasted forty years. If you missed it the first time, here is your chance to catch it. If you heard it already, it is just as fun the second time around. 20 The Countdown Magazine is listener-supported.
