Storytelling is actually quite important, and I'm glad pieces like this carry on the tradition. It reminds me of the African tradition of griots who pass down knowledge orally. In a sense, that is what radio is today and I don't think it will die out.
Although the levels are bit off, the capture of Lance's story crackles with a warmth and spontaneity that immediately draws me in. An afterthought for me was how much American pop culture really affects our lives and the way we behave. Perfecto!
