I don't think I'm being biased when I say that several long-running WFMU DJs have permanently transformed days of the week. Sunday afternoons are associated w/garage rock (Bill Kelly), Saturday afternoons are associated w/greasy RnR (the Hound), and Sunday mornings have long been reggae time (Jeff).
