Review of Love & Radio: Love in Bits
Sometimes you feel all alone and like your love life, or lack thereof, is just like everyone else's. This piece blows that theory all to hell. Anything goes from open marriage to...yowsers!
Very contempo, upbeat, humorous, and timely; although best for late-night airing due to sexual content and language. Great soundtrack. Excellent, tight production. Yes, and it's quirky. Online dating is quirky in and of itself. So is this piece, ever reminding us that while techno-dating might be the newest thing, not much really changes when it comes to navigating the murky waters of love.
Great use of the word "uglily".
