Good thoughts and worth every dime!,
By MR Smith..(really) (CALIFORNIA , USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Crimebusters And Crossed Wires (Audio CD)
I recieved this CD when I bellied up to the bar so to speak and became a member of KPCC(public Radio)in California. I paid 120.00 for my member ship and recieved this cd as a thank you...It was worth every dime and I would do it every year if they had one! So at what ever this site is charging..it's a DEAL! But, Join public radio any way!

Take a moment...listen to a story or two...,

I you're familiar with the radio show This American Life, then you know the vibe of this CD. If you're not familiar, you're in for a treat. These stories give you the perfect excuse to turn off the TV, unplug the phone, and do something that we never really do anymore in this fast-paced world: listen to stories. Being a musician, I love the story about forming a band from the classified ads. Tragic and hilarious...been there! Get this CD, you'll really enjoy it.

WARNING: Don't listen to this one with a full bladder!,
By K. Corn "reviewer" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Crimebusters And Crossed Wires (Audio CD)
THe first story alone (about an unfortunate incident involving a squirrel and a couple of rookie policemen) had my husband and I laughing SO hard we collapsed onto the nearest chairs. The rest of the excerpts from THis American Life are equally fun to listen to, but we still think the squirrel story is the topper. If you're taking a road trip, this will definitely keep you awake and its a nice choice for a snowy or rainy afternoon, when you just want to veg out. Excellent!

This American Life Rocks!,
By Miles Price - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Crimebusters And Crossed Wires (Audio CD)
This second volume of "the best" of "This American Life" is another gem! Each of these stories is amazing in its own right, and each is a perfect example of what a phenomenal show TAL really is.Most of these stories are on the humorous side, which is really just one side of the show; however, it's still a well-rounded collection. If you are trying to turn someone on to the show, this is an excellent CD to introduce them to it. The only thing that I didn't like about the CD was the time between Vols. 1 & 2. Come on, TAL...give us more of the best! |
