Show Description
Summer Solstice - Rader in the Florida Swamps, Red Garter Dixieland Band / Summer Job, Toledo Mudhens Play-by-Play Shep starts out the second hour of this show by telling a tale about hunting crayfish in the swamp near his home. One day Shep, Flick, Schwartz, and Bruner set out to the swamp and instead of catching crayfish, they come up with a Water Moccasin. Next, they go swimming in the swamp and come face to face with a Mudhen, which leads into the story about baseball and the legendary Toledo Mudhens for whom he did play by play in his early career.
