I was introduced to Chicago radio station WFMT‘s Midnight Special by my parents back in the 1960s. I introduced Mia to the show soon after me met. Here is a list of some of our favorite songs and comedy routines from the show and where they can be found on the internet (mostly YouTube). This is just a beginning. It is nowhere near complete. I will be adding to it as I find more bits online and time permits. Suggestions are welcome.
