Mike Murphy is a lifelong Chicagoan who went to his first Cubs game when he was in kindergarten, and has been going to Wrigley Field ever since.

Murph merged his love of sports and radio in high school at Lyons Twp. H.S. in LaGrange, where he played on the school's baseball team and was the first DJ on the school's brand new radio station (WLTL-FM). He did this while attending as many Cubs games as he could so he could sit with his buddies, the "Original Left Field Bleacher Bums".

Murph attended Southern Illinois University for four years, and quickly realized his playing days were over. He decided that he better concentrate on radio at WIDB-AM. Back in Chicago, it was Murph's goal to be the "Voice of the Fan", with a "Fans Talking to Fans " style. He has done that now on Chicago airwaves for almost 20 years at WLS, WSCR and now ESPN 1000.
