Comments

• If you heard this morning's MASS BACKWARDS episode from April 11, 1969, there was a rare phone caller who was the "Teenage Expert" inspired by the Pontiac commercial. The 15 year old caller was my brother Bill calling from our Staten Island bedroom! What an incredible shock to hear it for the first time in 38 years! I remember distinctly Bill immediacy calling WOR when he heard Shep's request for the "Teenage Expert." Been looking for this show since '69. Thanks Max! Pete Delaney (Middle aged expert)

Think about it, friends. It's not just a possibility. It is a certainty." - Jean Shepherd - 1975
