I wonder what you think his best radio show broadcast was? [For me it was either Indiana Blizzard, Company Picnics, or My first drink at a bar. ;) ]
Around the time of this show, or maybe a few years before, Coke had a promotion related to collecting their bottle caps. There was the logo of an NFL team inside each bottle cap. You had to remove a cork covering from the inside of the bottle cap to see the team logo. My dad worked at a US government facility. He brought me to work with him a few times. He put a magnet on the end of a string, and I fished the bottle caps out of the Coke machines at his work. I completed a certain number of sets of those bottle caps, and I received an official NFL football! It was a real nice football, and I used it for many years.
Thanks, Shep. Rest in peace.❤
Thanks SO much for your GS posts. This man was a genius-the Ernie Kovacs of radio? But beyond that . He was the heart of what became “free form FM” circa ‘66 in San Fran.
LMAO!!!!! This is one of his all-time BEST STORIES EVER!!!!!!
*I haven't listened to this yet but it's the great Jean Shepherd, so how can I go wrong?! Bless you for uploading these masterpieces of American Radio Culture! (New Sub here)*
I remember listening to Howard Stern once who crapped all over Jean. What a POS! OMG he could spin a story. I seriously miss radio like this. Fantastic human.
Thanks, Shep. Rest in peace.❤
Ahh, Shep! What a voice! What a storyteller! He told a story spontaneously every weeknight for years and years on WOR in New York! Jean Shepherd once organized a patriotic event called Operation Stomp! Anybody remember it? Hit like if you do!
I used to listen to this guy on WOR 710 on the AM side in New York as a kid! I remember the creeping hand of death segment that he used as a ad for his show.
Are there any recordings of Gene Klavan?
Used to listen to him when I was a kid. Never would have heard The Armenian Jazz Sextet without him. Never would have had a 3" "Go fly a kite, buddy" kite either.
Kudos to the creator of the lovely little movie "A Christmas Story"!
Oh, you poor, sad people who only know Jean Shepherd from the Christmas Story! He was so much more than that!
@@JumpingJesus4 I admit that I was introduced to Jean Shepherd by the Christmas Story movie. I didn't know about him in the 70's. I lived in South Jersey, so I didn't hear him on the radio. However, I found these recordings on TH-cam, and I have been listening to them for a number of years now. I'm trying to get caught up on all of these shows that I missed. He is a master story teller.
I'd love to hear the second part.
That American song at the first is the jingle for Arbisol shaving cream.
I love this and am going to send to Hubby who has an affinity for bears! 😊
I am reminded, our human nature never changes.
I love listening to Shep! Very interesting to listen to real news from this time especially since I have been studying in depth modern post WWII history…
I thought Jean Shepard was a female country music singer- is he a cross dresser ?
@@davidrice3337it kills me that she pops up when I look him up💀
@@davidrice3337Do some research, PLEASE. Shep is a legend
5:26
Actually 5:31…….😜
Posted a comment saying I enjoyed this that YT removed as h-te sp-ech. Go figure.
One thing about Shepherd. He most certainly had political viewpoints, but I don't recall any of them being expressed. Anyone?
The "traditional profession" Shep declined to name was "wrecker," and I don't mean the guy who drives the tow truck, either. If they could afford ships, they probably would've been pirates, but due to circumstances they had to make do. ='[.]'=
My uncle Mike is a really good storyteller, but not as good as Shep. Shep was the greatest storyteller of them all.
"Tail over teakettle" is the polite version.
Four stars for this fellow!
The Limelight was a tiny club. So why is he always yelling on these live show episodes?
41:31 I can chalk up yet ANOTHER piece of education i get from these recordings of Shep's shows (side note although i appreciate the stimulation of learning, i am unfortunately sacrificing much needed sleep in the process😢). I thought i had heard the newscaster mention "Reddish Lion" meaning the UK. I thought that i has mis-heard that, so i googed it and turns out that "Red Lion" refers in general to the Pubs in the UK, but also Red Lion is a historic reference to attributes with the lion being noted for courage, strength, and valor and red symbolizing warmth, passion and hospitality. And wow, the newscaster chose to corrupt the term to "Red-ish Lion" Eee-Yo!😮
Hey, Dapper Gent: Thanks for not only downloading this but also providing a time stamped description. I was having trouble trying to follow Shep's thread. I came to the comments to see if anyone had the same reaction, but no one else seemed to care, but your Description reinforced to me that this segment is indeed a miscellaneous rambling but can indeed be chronicaled. I'm 39 minutes into this, and so far, the only part i liked was his "serenade" at the beginning, so at least there's that😂 Edit: Ha! Boy, did i speak too soon! 39:52 newscast contrasted that US Congress was working while Eisenhower played golf😂 Then 39:58 newsreported that both Houses of our esteemed Congress seemingly "got together" to pass a Bill to allow Eisenhower to cut sugar imports from 39:52 C * u * b* a. I'll bet today's congress might not have done the same. And wowee! 41:31 newscast said Reddish(?) Lion [England] said it was time for "SOMEONE" to take a stand against the "Bearded Bad Boy(😅)" of the Carribean for taking control of a Dutch oil company's facilities in the capital (H) and to try to stop another plan for said island nation for a potential defense agreement with an eastern block nation😮. Then woah, as for the "missing reconnaissance plane" : "anything can happen"😮. So, if i did find Shep's prose lacking here, the news made up for that😛
WAAAAA!!....... WAAAAA! GE-GE-GE- GE-GE-GAAAaaaahh....😂
Some Medieval knave had to stick his tongue out to see if it would stick to a battle-axe in ten degree (f) weather.
I too, am a natural rubberneck. We humans are a fascinating study.
When I was a kid growing up in NJ, I used to grab a radio and hide it under my blankets when I was supposed to be asleep and listen to Jean Shephard.
me too!
I suspect Shep identified as an atheist.
Gots ta gets me some McCleans toofpaste. Edit add: all kidding aside this was a deeply moving experience Jean shared. I was in tears at the end. Thank you, Dapper Gent, for again uploading a unique phenomenon, Shep, the one and only.
I used to listen to him and wor radio as a kid

20:15: In the "Dune" books by Frank Herbert, they used ornithopters on the planet Dune.
I lived in NJ in 1969, and I was excited that the Mets won that year. Now I live near Chicago, and the 1969 season is still remembered as a disaster here because the Cubs collapsed, and the Mets won.
In 1973 I changed a set of rod bearings in a car port in Phoenix Arizona when it was 115' F in the shade. Just when I thought I couldn't be more miserable a drop of dirty oil fell straight into my eye.
34:35: My dad was a ham radio operator, but I have never been a ham. I had a CB radio in my car in the late 70's and early 80's. One time when I was driving in the mountains of West Virginia, I started hearing transmissions from other parts of the US. They called it "Skipland."
14:34: I have played several games of Monopoly where someone actually won the game. It usually wasn't I who won the game. I have never played "Monolopy." 😁
This was featured in the September 1969 issue of Playboy.
28:00 -- Rock music was done as of August 1974, huh? Shepherd lets his dislike of the music make a fool of him.

@@Pittie21 you fsthead
Sorry, Shep, but Jack Benny was born in Chicago and grew up in Waukegan, IL. He was not from Wisconsin. I agree with Shep that Minnesota is a beautiful state. I am not from Minnesota, but I have spent some time traveling there.
When Jean says that people in the future will be provided with their own dialogue, is he predicting Artificial Intelligence?
