He's spoken of Metallica and Slayer, but I've never heard anything from him about Megadeth. I'm wondering if I emailed him, he'd play some on his radio show. Just curious...
Email him, because he will answer. The worst he can say is he'll never play it, but if that happens, at least you won't have to wonder about it anymore.
I emailed him once to ask if he ever listened to singer-songwriter/folk music. I mentioned Patty Griffin, and I really expected him to say that folk music wasn't his thing, but he replied that he owned a Patty Griffin album and "should get some of that on the show." I'll be very surprised if he ever figures out (or remembers) a way to fit her in, but if anyone can do it, Henry can.

I don't know if he listens to Megadeth or not, he listens to a METRIC FUCKTON of music from pretty much every genre there is. I'm going to guess he may have a personal opinion of Dave Mustaine’s frequent "I was unfairly kicked out of Metallica and they stole my music" whininess but I’ve no idea if he is a fan or not.
I wouldn't personally "request" anything because he has indicated, even in a light hearted manner, that he doesn't "do" requests but I don't think that includes being reminded of a band he may have let fall by the wayside in the flood of music that flows through his life. :)
Go for it. I've emailed him a few times and received an answer back for each one; he's very generous with his time. :)
