Summary
Cassette 1, side A, ca. 48 min. [Jean Shepherd's lecture begins ca. 1:30 min. into the recording following silence and ambient noise. The sound is distorted, and the recording is difficult to understand until ca. 5:30 min. when sound quality improves greatly.] Jean Shepherd delivers a comic lecture primarily about mass media and their audiences, focusing on television and film. Ends abruptly but continues directly on side B.
Cassette 1, side B, ca. 11 min. Jean Shepherd concludes his lecture with an anecdote about a performance he gave at a high school and the announcing of a question and answer period; recording ends abruptly at ca. 11 min. prior to the asking of any substantive questions. The remainder of side B is blank.
