What kind of odd time system is this? (Japan) *SOLVED*

I'm to understand that the above link lists a bunch of times for three different radio shows...

But uh, they list what appears to be some odd times. 28:00~29:00? 25:00~25:30? What madness is this?

    ... Y'know, like, I'm aware of 24 hour way of keeping time and stuff... but... those numbers exceed the number 24... O_o

    Are you sure those are supposed to be times?

    That link leads to a 403. And my bet would be the site is talking about times during the radio show. So, x happens 28 minutes in, y happens 29 minutes in, etc.

    It looks like someone simply can't tell time, or something. In Japan, you occasionally see 24:00 used instead of 0:00, and I've occasionally seen extended time used, like a nightclub open on Friday from 20:00-30:00 (6 am, the intent being that Friday night is all night long). That might be the case here, since one line says, 'every Saturday from 28:00-29:00' Or 8/25 Saturday, 2 hour live broadcast! 27:00-29:00' These aren't part of Sunday morning, they're occurring during Saturday night.

    The dark hour(s).

    Sorry, too much Persona 3 for me.

    There was a steam sig here. It's gone now.

    Ah, I see. That's probably it. Thank you.
