In this Jean Shepherd marathon, we present:

Shep talks about: the chain on the door, the steel mill and "Terry and The Pirates." Permanent protection from the elements. WOR is breaking in a new fifty thousand watt transmitter after the show (the one in current use was put into service in 1923). Mom's cookie cutter, The New York Times asks Shepherd for assistance. Whitey Ford pitches to a loser. Fu Manchu for president! Chinese water torture, a lifetime credit card, three roosters on a bathtub. Portions of this program might be recorded out of sequence. (July 10, 1960)
The emblem of the eagle should be replaced by a cocker spaniel. A modest proposal for ex-presidents (and others). The starlings have arrived in Queens, memories of the Lone Ranger. (July 23, 1960)
"The Footrace Of Life" in New York. At the dog track: chasing the rabbitt of life. Shep reveals the source of alligators in the sewers of New York City. (July 30, 1960)
