"I don't know why some people want squooshy softness..."

Me either. But hey, it makes for a fascinating radio story.  The nat sound of the barking dogs really took me to the veterinarian's office, and the descriptive phrases used by the reporter came along at a natural and conversational pace. Although the subject matter was a little out there, it just opens up one of the little nooks and crannies of our country that everyone doesn't always see, much like an audio version of a "detail" photograph. Away from pure entertainment value, the journalistic merit of the piece was there too. By including opinions from both sides of the topic, the reporter supported fun with facts, making the story both interesting and credible. The only drawback, journalistically, that I found with this piece was that the reporter chose to make small quips about the subject matter in his word choice and tone, clearly editorializing the piece to align with the reporter's obvious belief that Neuticles are ridiculous; but hey, how serious can you be when you're producing a piece about false canine cajones? Well balanced, technically sound, fun to listen to, and informational all the while. Bravo.
