Review of Who Killed Santa Claus For You?

I loved the title of this piece, which is actually the reason I wanted to listen to it.
Most parents expect their children to let go of Santa at some point, and without realizing it (or sometimes with full intention) rip the tradition away from them. It's very funny to hear the teenagers tell their story of how they came to learn the truth about Santa Claus, and most even laugh themselves.
This is one of those stories that everyone (at least here in America) can relate to. The piece used many different points of view, and didn't center too long around an individual person; just enough to get the point of each story and that was it.
It wasn't repetitive, and the music flowed really well with the whole thing. The sound quality was great; you could hear everything perfectly, and there were no infamous microphone bumps or anything.
I think this is a great piece for the radio, mostly because it's fun to listen to, especially around the holidays.
