[spiderman] April 1972's "Geography" & "Great Plays" can be dated from the first week (+/-) of that month, as well as "Secret Panels". Shep plugs the Red Bank, NJ show on 4/7 during each of these; "Secret Panels" also has an ad for the NY Auto Show "now through April 9th." Knowing these shows therefore had to be aired before the 7th and taking definitively dated shows from the database into account, they must be from either 4/1, 2 or 5.

"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
