In Kicks, Jean Shepherd likes to muse out loud about what we say and what we do - and why we say it and why we do it. In this collection, Shep regards the thirst for holiness, victimization by myths, official discoveries known to the world for a thousand years, and visits with Og and Charlie in a story of the birth and development of music -- all while pointing out and puncturing many an over inflated balloon of thought.

The radio programs in this collection, long lost and forgotten, were created in the mid 1960's by Shepherd for radio and television syndicator Hartwest Productions in the format heard on Shepherd's WOR shows of the day, right down to his familiar Bahn Frei theme music.
