Shep was on the radio for over 30 years.
Although he was involved with writing books, movies, and countless magazine stories, this is the medium from which many of his fans remember him. Most notably for the WOR New York Years.

Shep's 'favorite' part of the show was the commercials.
He always considered them an unnecessary interruption to his train of thought and flow of material and many times commented so.
