Comments

• Shep seems to be distracted by some activity in the studio near the end of the show and wanders off-point, leading to not quite the big finish he might have intended. This show contains a great description of hot, humid summer nights in the Midwest. Shep reads article about Joseph Weil written on the eve of his 86th birthday - Weil was born 1875 which makes the article from 1961(?)

Brass Figlagee Award

"I will award the Brass Figlagee. . ."

• He reads a snippet of article about the celebrated Chicago bunko artist, Joseph "Yellow Kid" Weil, offering a Brass Figlagee to anyone who knows how he earned his nickname.

Sorry, Not Available

"Can you imagine 4,000 years passing, and you're not even a memory?
Think about it, friends. It's not just a possibility. It is a certainty." - Jean Shepherd - 1975
