Comments
• This show was originally broadcast on 1/4/1966 on WOR, but parts were added and removed along the way to compensate for station ID's, news breaks, and total time. At 31:00 Shep comments 'we're off here - now I can worry about something else' At 31:24 Shep comments 'all right, we're back on again?' He also makes reference to strike bulletins - He was probably referencing the NYC transit strike which lasted from Jan 1st to the 13th.
