I'm very proud to say that I grew up listening to WFMT. It was constantly on in my house. And,…read morewhile many classical radio stations -nationwide or in Chicago - have moved online or dissipated, WFMT has persevered. I think that this fact speaks volumes about its leadership and listener base. The format is mainly classical music, although they do lean towards folk music on some evenings (um, no thank you). WFMT has it's own traditions, such as all commercials are read, not recorded. There are no irritating commercial breaks. And, it's funny when their stuffy voices read Red Lobster commercials. I especially enjoy celebrating the birthdays of familiar composers. And, on those days, expect to hear a day devoted to some of the more famous pieces and work of Bach/Mozart/Rachmaninoff. Today, in my house, the tradition continues: I get the chance to share my love for this station with my children. And, I want you to know that I totally could have blended my feelings for this station with some Haydn wordplay, but chose not to (you're welcome).

I grew up listening to WFMT and it's still the station I have on most of the time, especially in…read morethe car on my way to and from work. Classical music is the soundtrack for my life. My favorite hosts are Carl Grapentine, Suzanne Nance, and Candice Agree. During the morning and afternoon rush hours, they play mostly shorter and lighter works that are enjoyable to listen to while driving. I can thank my parents for introducing me to classical music at an early age. They paid for piano lessons and later on, violin lessons. The violin became my primary instrument, leading to several years playing with the Civic Orchestra of Chicago and later on, the NU Symphony. Because of this early exposure to classical music, I find that my life is immensely enriched by having access to it on the radio, and WFMT helps fulfill that need. I don't agree with people that say this station plays a limited selection of music or that the presenters sound monotonous. WFMT has an extremely diverse schedule, offering everything from opera to folk music, symphonic works, chamber music, and choral and organ music. Much like the changeability of Chicago weather, if you don't like what's on at the moment, come back a little while later because it will be something different.

Yo, who thought it was a good idea to model an entire radio station around songs everyone was sick…read moreof by 2002? I want the names and socials of everyone who signed off on this. And yeah I'm reviewing an FM radio station despite satellite radio being all the rage. But I ain't that bougie. Like a lot of older millennials, I was excited to learn that Chicago would be getting its own hip-hop and R&B "throwback" station about a year ago. I've heard similarly formatted radio in other cities and was envious. What I did not expect is that our incarnation of this would be f**kin' whack. It's become a terrible joke that every time I tune in, they're either playing 1 of 3 Ja Rule songs, "Creep" or "Waterfalls" by TLC, or "Juicy" by Biggie (y'all bogus for actually making me sick of Notorious B.I.G.). I'm convinced they spin a damn wheel of up to 5-6 songs to determine what gets played. This station is basically a time warp of B96 in 2000, when they were "Hits and Hip-Hop", but with an even shorter playlist. I can't fathom how you have up to 3 decades worth of music at your disposal, yet you chose to be this redundant. Since they did not have any on-air personalities for the first few months after their launch, I held out hope things would get better. They managed to dig up the corpse of Ed Lover, which at this point is Ken Griffey Jr. on the White Sox (a recognizable name nobody really cares about anymore), and got him to do their morning show. They paired him with the proverbial "nails on the chalkboard" voiced Jen, who's way too bubbly to be partnered with the grumbling old man that is Ed Lover, and makes for an odd sounding experience. Alas, the repetition in their music selection has not changed, and it's time to admit this is just who they are. The only reason they're not getting 1 star is because of their "BMX Four" who do mixes on Friday and Saturday nights. I've always been a fan of Julian Perez and DJ Nonstop. This is the only time you'll hear any variety on this station. Ever since Entercom took over CBS stations, a slew of bad moves have been made (nixing J in the morning on B96 and bringing back Drex, & everything they've done to 670 The Score). This was one thing that should have been a positive, but just another colossal disappointment.

I like your DJs and many things about your station; but you play too many commercials, and then, torture us with the same crap - too much Tom Petty, Pat Benatar. And then 'Rhapsody' - hell I used to like that song; now I hate it - and you have ruined Zeplin for me, for life: I used to love them - and so, on and on .

Their disc jockeys jockey up a bunch of classic rock. It makes me feel old what they consider "Classic" rock. Their DJs are pretty funny, but vapid. I generally change the channel when they come on. I'll stick around if they play some Stairway again, or some Skynyrd. Is it just me, or does there seem to be a lot of commercials on this station? I was hoping for more country and western music, instead of Tom Petty again. They do play a lot of his stuff. WDRV used to broadcast from the Hancock building, but now they're in Prudential Plaza, with their antenna on top of the Aon Center. The station is owned by Hubbard Media, and can be tuned in on a smart speaker.
