The Midnight Special
Rich Warren
Celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, The Midnight Special has stayed current through decades of change. Rich in tradition and history, The Midnight Special retains its timeliness, delighting listeners with gentle irrelevance or touching them with candid observation.
In 1953, Mike Nichols, (then a WFMT announcer and now one of the most respected stage and film directors), developed The Midnight Special as a showcase for recorded folk music. Over the years, The Midnight Special has evolved into an eclectic mixture of song and story that attracts not only a loyal following, but also new, younger listeners with each broadcast.

Weekend Edition
Liane Hansen
Weekend Edition Sunday premiered on January 18, 1987, and was the last of NPR?s major newsmagazines to hit the air. Since then, Weekend Edition Sunday has covered newsmakers, artists, scientists, politicans, musicians, writers, thinkers, theologians and all manner of news events. Originally hosted by Susan Stamberg, the show has been anchored by Liane Hansen since 1989.
Senior News Analyst Daniel Schorr and Puzzlemaster Will Shortz have been with the program from the beginning, and a wide variety of commentators and essayists help round out the weekly offerings: humorist Andy Borowitz slings satirical arrows at big-shots, celebrities, and politicans of all stripes; Diane Roberts takes a sometimes hilarious, sometimes poignant view of life in the South; and transplanted Brit Tim Brookes offers his impressions of life on these shores.
Weekend Edition Sunday is heard on more than 500 NPR stations across the United States, and around the globe on NPR Worldwide.

All Things Considered
Robert Siegel, Michele Norris and Melissa Block
At 4 p.m. CDT on May 3, 1971, the first edition of All Things Considered went on the air. In the more than three decades since, almost everything about the program has changed -- the hosts and producers, the length of the program, the equipment used, even the audience. But one thing remains the same: the determination to get the day's big stories on the air, and to bring them alive through sound and voice.
