Review of Homes
A great piece about homesickness and the things we miss when we're away from home. As a UK expat living in the middle east I can relate to this!
The opening is good, the description of New Orleans after the flood. The forgotten action figures maybe symbolise the forgotten citizens of New Orleans?
I like the way you cut suddenly from the stream of consciousness-like poem to the atmospherics. I like this technique and I think it can be very effective.
My only criticism is the tape hiss on one of the segments. Did you record all your narrative on the same equipment?
Other than that it captures well the longing that you both feel.

Review of Final Sale
A lovely little piece about a big man in a small town. Mr Sherwin has seen it all, being rooted to the spot for 70 years and the affection and sweet memories that his customers/friends have for him is touching in this day and age where interactions can be so impersonal.
He sounds much younger than his years!
A nice blend of interviews and actuality there, I can picture the store and Mr Sherwin in my head. I'm going to Google him and his shop now, you've made me interested!
