Review of A Missile Base Called Home

This piece was a joy to listen to and sounded really effortless to me. (Since I can assume it didn't simply spring forth from the ether I can't think of any higher compliment). The producer successfully treads a fine balance between being the informative newsy guy and the funny kid at the back of the bus.
Favorite moment was the drum circle with the fife and drum tune, followed by the producer chiming in and echoing exactly what I was thinking. Dead-on comic delivery without remotely sounding snarky.
And just an interesting story all the way around.
Nicely done!
