Radio Again distribution

In 2006 Hartwest entered into a distribution agreement with Choice Ventures, a new audio distribution company founded by Mark Tepper. There was an initial offering of 2 sets of shows - 4 programs in one set and 8 in the other. Each program was on its own audio CD packaged in cases containing the CDs and liner notes written by Eugene B. Bergmann and excerpts from his book "Excelsior You Fathead - The Art and Enigma of Jean Shepherd."

Ultimately they released five 8 program sets and four 4 program sets
for a total of 56 shows under the "Radio Again" label.

In general, the programs, after Shepherd's music theme, are monologues, with commercial breaks (but no commercials); Shepherd muses about whatever strikes his fancy, ranging from his youthful experiences as a tuba student, to the time that he and an army buddy went to a tattoo parlor but chickened out. The humor is remarkably fresh and current, with only a few "dating" references.

"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
