Stop Motion Story of A Toy on a Journey

Filmed on a Canon 5d MkII and so beautiful, I want to liberate toys everywhere.

This American Life : Middle School

This is - as far as I know, in the vast storied history of the Dumpster blog - is the first time I've posted an audio link.

A year and a half ago, the antenna in my car broke.  Coincidentally, it was after I took it in to be serviced and it was up on the hoist.  But it was a bit of a blessing in disguise - I now play podcasts more than the radio in my car.  I prefer the on-demand movement anyhow; isn't this blog proof?

One of my new (to me .. I'm slow) favourites is This American Life.
At the risk of alienating my countrymen and forsaking the Mother Corp - I think I like it even better than The Vinyl Café (although my Ira Glass impersonation isn't as well rehearsed as my Stuart McLean impersonation).

And I'm a middle-school teacher.  So this podcast appealed to me.  I hope you chuckle and relate as well as I did.
