Culture or No Culture,The Year 1974, Who is Mr. Sheets

September 27, 2020

Here you go:

Today's never ending conversation starts with David and Stephanie both agreeing that they had good weeks when not watching or reading the news on a daily basis. David laments how the pandemic has forced the cancellation of performing arts in New York City and elsewhere. Today's look back is on 1974, the year that Gerald Ford became president after the resignation of Richard M. Nixon, and Muhammad Ali was stripped of his heavy weight title when he refused to take the step forward at his local draft board. Stephanie's commentary this week reflects on the lack of reporting of a family life and the lack of humanity in today's White House, unlike any administration in recent memory. And David finishes by expressing his joy at doing the show each week with Stephanie.
