Pergolini will be in charge of the countdown of the 40 most-voted songs by listeners every Sunday from 10 a.m.
"With his renowned passion for rock and a unique way of telling the story of music, Pergolini brings rhythm, context, and a critical eye to a modern radio classic: the stories behind each hit, anecdotes, surprises, statistics, and the adrenaline of discovering which song reaches the #1 spot each week," the station highlighted in a statement.
