Show Description

Shep is quietly reflective, more serious than usual. He talks about the folly of a "clean h-bomb", the ghosts of the ancient Greek and Gothic civilizations in the architectural details of the old buildings in Manhattan, and the story of a man whose crowning moment was catching a foul ball at a White Sox game. 6,000 years from now we'll all be gone Mentions the Soviet National Exposition in New York

"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
