Larry Glick sign-on song at 12:05 just after the news. Larry acknowledges Stephen Smith, newsman (from THE BOSTON GLOBE Feb 23, 1988 -- Stephen E. Smith of Lynn, a radio newsman in New England for 30 years, died of an apparent heart attack Sunday in Boston's St. Elizabeth's Hospital. He was 55. Mr. Smith had worked as a reporter for WBZ radio since 1968). Larry does his opening monologue by talking about general points of interest including the weather. (during Larry's opening comments the door to the studio must have been open as a telephone can be heard ringing and the few second delay from the on-air signal. Larry asks Steve to turn the speaker down). Larry continues by mentioning an article about Paul Harvey, and speaks about Paul at some length. Larry explains to listeners who may be new to his program that it is a call-in program that is easy to get used to.

First call is Doug from Toronto, a first time caller (round of applause). Doug speaks of the New York Islanders Hockey Team and a 23 million dollar debt incurred by the owner. FROM NY TIMES: Roy L. M. Boe, whose Islander hockey team and Nets basketball team have been threatened by lawsuits and debts, was the subject of another multimillion‐dollar action yesterday).

Next caller is Jeff from Hazleton, Pa. After a slow start to the conversation Larry seems to put Jeff at ease somewhat and we find that Jeff is 23 years old and drives a tractor/trailer in the Midwest. He has been married for 4 years. Larry does some kidding about Jeff and his wife that may be considered inappropriate now, but in 1978 Larry could get away with it. Larry asks to speak with Jeff's wife, but she wont come to the phone. Jeff mentions that he is a first time caller (round of applause).
