Show Description
Most people don't worry about dying. Insurance companies Shep says he did a radio show frozen in a cake of ice. Once did a radio show for two hours in the animal cage in the center ring of a circus along with 23, lions. tigers and black leopards. Shep lets the listeners decide - radio story or army story? Radio wins. Larry Justice gets a raise for refusing to get off the air. Story of 'disk jockey' who goes nuts and starts flinging the records out over the city.
