Hi Kate! Very nice to more or less "chat" with you this way! I remember reading and delighting in two Shep books decades ago (In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash and Wanda Hickey's Night of Golden Memories), but it was so long ago that I don't remember all of the stories. But I do remember very well indeed the one about the Wimpy doll, and the one about the great gravy boat disaster at one of the local movie theater's many dish nights! Shep truly was a gift to humanity. What a wonderful thing that we still get to enjoy such a large number of his incomparable radio shows.
@@katevalentine7075, minor correction, the entire phrase is "Excelsior, you fathead!" "Seltzer bottle!" is the correct response. Growing up in NYC, my friends and I would go to many of Shep's shows at the Limelight in the Village (18 was the drinking age) . Shep gave me an insight on life that shaped the future me. I'm 77 now and thank him for opening my eyes to a lot of things. He was my Mark Twain or Will Rogers. Great story teller and a wonderful sense of humor.
I wish Audible would put up " In God We Trust All Others Pay Cash " The full story is in that book and I believe was in "Playboy " As you all know friends ...people bought "Playboy " for the stories 😉
Remember listening to shep on wor every night at 1015.
One of Shep's greatest!
Agree but alot more of the story is in his book that he couldn't do on the radio back then

You mean there was something else in Playboy besides stories? 😉😉
The Bumpus story is actually printed in “Wanda Hickey’s Night of Golden Memories.”
