Listener letters consistently report "I am one of the true people." "No one ever believes he is a bad guy." JS

Rise in the serious belief in actors as "profound thinkers" and "truthful people"

Perfect political candidate of the future seen as a black medical doctor of one-third Indian background who is a successful actor.

Emphasis on ancient rather than contemporary history noted.

Manfred von Richthofen ("Red Baron") cited as example of a "spectacular character" who created classic aerial tactic formations in WW.I

Discussion of theories about the final defeat of the Red Baron.

"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
