"As a youngster, Adam had gnawed the corner of the wooden door of the living room radio to shreds, sitting on the gold carpet, listening to Superman, The Lone Ranger and Tom Mix, toggling between WOR and WJZ. Now he preferred watching radio live. The shows one could attend were limited only by one's free time. The tickets cost nothing. Adam=Fox. Manhattan=Chicken Coop.
Inside the studio, Adam took a comfortable seat. There before him was Red Barber. His guest this morning, Phil Rizzuto, the New York Yankee shortstop. Rizzuto had played for the Yankees for five years. He was a big star. Sitting there sitting opposite Red on a simple stage. Talking about other stars: Yogi Berra, Joe DiMaggio. Taking his hat off to the great City of New York."
