OK, let's try this again. From the top, slowly.

I know for a fact that the first playing hit at about about 6:45 am eastern time, give or take 15 minutes. I know this for a fact because I was the one who requested it. I requested it before I left for work (at about 5:35 am EDT) and I wanted to time it so it would play close to the front of my shift while still giving me time to set up my systems for my daily tasks. I succeeded beyond my wildest dreams.

The second instance played right as my shift was winding down. 6:30 pm, give or take 10 minutes. I was working a 12 hour shift on Saturday (I'd gladly provide computer logs and shift reports were I so inclined. But I'm not.) and thought "What a wonderful way of finishing off the shift! I started it with Mr 10%, and someone finished it off for me! How nice of them!". 12 hours from 6:00 am makes 6:00 pm. And I made a point of staying because I liked this song and didn't want to miss it the second time.

12 hours. 11.5 at minimum. Not 6. Not 8. And certainly not back to back.

Unfortunately, the history logs from the station cut off at just after 8pm CDT (that's 9 pm EDT), or I'd cut and paste them, thus leaving out any doubt.
