I found the radio story about Neuticles to be rather similar to a cold read. The story was organized well and the information was interesting but there was nothing included that I couldn’t have gotten from simply reading. The only natural sound included was the sound of a dog barking and while this is a nice start, it really doesn’t add anything to the story. The journalist would have been more successful turning it into a TV piece… or even a text piece. There’s no audio to be gathered but at least if there were pictures of video the audience would have been able to orient themselves with where the man does operations and perhaps what the Neuticles look like. Essentially, what this journalist made was a creepy bedtime story.
