Episode 731 - The First Hour Of MTV Worst To First Part 1 w/The ATTT All-Stars

It’s that time of year again, folks! The time has come to summon the ATTT All-Stars for another one of our patented over-the-top All-Stars episodes. Longtime listeners of the show know how this goes. Shannon Hurley, Dustin Prince, Matt Dinan, Joe Lavelle, David Daskal and Gabe Scalone are on hand, and fans of the Old Boy Himself Ryan Blake fear not, he’ll be joining us for Part 2 of this mega episode. It’s the All-Stars, and they’re here to help us celebrate the 45th anniversary of the birth of MTV. On August 1 st, 1981 at the stroke of midnight, the world of music and popular culture at large would never be the same, as MTV was born. We’re getting in the wayback machine and taking a look at the videos played during the first hour of MTV, and we’re ranking the songs using our patent pending Worst To First format. Part 1 of 2 features the bottom of our list, and picks 16-9. Things start off rough but as we do with the Worst To First format, the songs get better and better as we go along.
