Review of TurkeysTurkey time and I just had to listen to this one. Produced in 1990 I would like to thing that it could give something of a historical perspective on the raising of turkeys for the Thanksgiving and Christmas table. Wrong, I am naive in that. A very good piece, sickeningly 'fun' to listen to. I would love to see it used in conjunction with a farming discussion. |

Review of TurkeysScott Carrier is great at getting down to the bare bones. He is so very unassuming that his interviewees seem to just speak to him in the plainest manner. It is this ability that opens to the listener the reality of whatever situation he is investigating. I guess this review is more about Scott then this particular piece. As for this piece I think it would work well on any radio show trying to give a rounded view of the holiday and all of its aspects. |
