Out of the three stories from KBIA, I felt that the Adderall and Neuticles stories were the strongest. While the Neuticles story was interesting because of its novelty, the report on Adderall use at MU was very informative. One aspect I found especially interesting was the reporter's use of anonymous sources. Normally in print stories this is frowned upon because of issues of verification and trust. In this radio piece, however, the listener hears the voice of an Adderall user and can reasonably trust that the person is exists. The Adderall story also seemed to feature all the people we needed to hear from: a user, a seller, a health professional and a MU official.
I didn't really care for the Mario Manzini story because it was difficult to follow. Also, Manzini's audio pops and in general sounds unpleasant.
