2002 RADIO MORNING SHOWS: A topic we haven't covered before - Demented Hits from Radio Morning Shows. There've been a ton of them - "The Devil Went to Jamaica," "Squirrels" and "We Love Barney Fife" for starters. Some surprises too. Our historical recap of The Years of Dementia reaches 1971 - an offhand guess I made that year about the show's future would come very true eight years later. Jan 11, 2020
