It's one of those transitional shows from the long-form style of radio to the later nightly type of show we are more familiar with. From some Friday in June 1961, Jean talks about demonstrators, from the US to potato farmers in France, shares some street scenes from Times Square, and talks about the tornado that hit the steel mill.

"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
