Totally '70s was an all '70s music channel on Sirius Satellite Radio channel 7 and Dish Network channel 6007. It was replaced by The 70s on 7 after the Sirius-XM merger.
The Totally 70's Satellite Survey, host by Dave Hoeffel, spun the Top 30 Hits that made the national charts during a particular week from the 1970s. Dave's show ran Saturdays 12 pm - 3 pm ET, Sundays Midnight - 3 am, 8 am - 11 am & 9 pm - Midnight ET. Being the only Totally '70s DJ who didn’t flunk math, Dave was assigned the enviable position of counting down the hits of the '70s every weekend. All the while sprinkling in a healthy dose of those "oh wow!!!" Satellite Survey "extras." Dave's ‘other jobs’ involved a web-based radio and music industry hub, and he operates a DJ entertainment company.
'70s icon Barry Williams (Greg Brady on TV's "The Brady Bunch") hosted The Real Greg Brady’s Totally '70s Pop Quiz starring Barry Williams Saturdays 8 pm - Midnight ET, Rebroadcast: Sundays 2 pm - 6 pm ET; and Mondays Midnight - 4 am ET. Barry, the one and only Greg Brady of Barry is well known for his portrayal of Greg Brady on the hit television series the Brady Bunch. He released a CD entitled The Return of Johnny Bravo in 1999, with pop songs that hold special meaning to him. Barry authored a #1 Best Seller: Growing Up Brady - I Was A Teenage Greg with 300,000+ copies sold. He starred in Bob Fosse's Pippin on Broadway and more than 75 other productions. He performs regularly in Las Vegas, as well as for corporate events, and in theaters around the country. For more, see BarryWilliams.com
The rest of the weekday lineup included Magic Matt Alan (of Los Angeles and New York fame) from Weekdays 6 am – Noon ET, Saturdays 3 pm – 8 pm ET. "Magic" Matt Alan started in show biz at the age of 10, swallowing razor blades in front of an audience of Boy Scouts. At age 12, Matt became America's youngest talk show host, at an AM station in Everett, WA, verbally abusing telekinesis acts like Uri Geller. Matt is a lover of the good life, whether it's a well marbled Cajun rib eye steak, a fine cigar or a perfectly shaken martini. You could count on Magic Matt in the Morning to be drunk... with passion.
Matt is no longer a fan of '70s music these days, and spends much of his time on-air demeaning the music he apparently can't stand to play. "Oceans of elevator music all day long" is his current appraisal of his assignment.
Ron Parker Weekdays Noon - 6 pm ET. Ron Parker has won several radio talent awards on both the West Coast and East Coast and was thrilled to be a part of the decade that really matters! Ron is also an avid Meteorology buff and wine connoisseur who regularly attends wine tastings. He’ll easily find you a good California Cabernet. Guess we can say he knows his millibars and his wine bars! Ron is also a family man with two felines he considers his kids named Mewsic and Michelle.
J.J. Walker (also known as The "Jammer" OR "Double J" in the 80's on New York City's WHTZ) Weekdays 6 pm – Midnight ET, Sundays 11 am – 2 pm & 6 pm - 9 pm ET. Totally '70s fun-lovin', night-time DJ-on-duty, Brother J.J. Walker was a SIRIUS staple for well over 5 years, entertaining listeners on Sirius 7 with wall to wall commercial-free '70s hit music! Previously, he rocked old fashioned radio for decades in New York City, Miami, Detroit, Philly, DC and KC. He hates sushi, can’t recall being abducted by aliens, but has vivid memories of his 1972 Dodge Dart Swinger.
Jay Thomas Saturdays 8 m - Midnight ET. The two time Emmy Award winning actor has starred on television in memorable roles such as Remo DaVinci on Mork & Mindy, Eddie LaBec on Cheers, Jerry Gold on Murphy Brown, and many others.

Time to break out the bell bottoms and lava lamps and get down! Nothing but pop, rock, soul and disco hits from the decade that brought you Watergate, Pop Rocks and a lot of polyester. Totally!
Musically, Totally '70s played the full spectrum of hit songs from 1970–79, spanning pop, soul, rock and disco, and including many of the abundance of cheesier hits of the decade, which are spotlighted in a bottom-of-the-hour feature called the "Jukebox from Hell".
