Danger and unexpectedness = great listening

This is a great show. I love the music, Glynn's offbeat style and energy, and the stories themselves. With this one hour, I now trust Glynn's taste in stories. All three were winners. The connection of the first two to the Warning Signs theme was very clear; the last one, less so, but I didn't mind because it was gripping. After an hour of mental and physical danger, I came away feeling safer, because I have nothing in common with the three protagonists. But that's also what drew me in, because I am perfectly happy to keep the experiences vicarious through them.

The stories were creatively produced, too. In the second story, I liked having the female observer to add a different angle. I'm painting my house now, and her presence reminded me of a complementary accent color.

As for Glynn's style, it's different and refreshing. But it also seems to come naturally, and as a listener I feel secure that he won't lose me along the way.

The only thing missing in this superb hour was a little more from Glynn, maybe a personal reflection to take the topic deeper. Something that ties it together a little more, or makes me think about things in a new way. Never mind, though. I'm being picky. Air this.
