This American Life from Chicago Public Radio and Showtime is consistently excellent and intriguing.  The episode below recounts the true story of how the 5th and 6th grades at an elementary school were changed by the sudden infatuation with pretend video cameras that the kids made out of cardboard.  The story is at once funny and strange, raising questions about education, technology, psychology and human interaction.  All in just 4 minutes.  Not bad!
