...fellow feeling were the sustaining forces of the Depression years. It was the teen-agers of the '30s who forged, fought and won the U.S. victory of World War II. For the flabby, self-centered, alienated lot that Mamet has assembled in his radio studio, that formidable deed would have been a manifest impossibility. - T.E.K...
