Great youth produced piece from a pretty remarkable young woman from the Ann Richards School for Young Women Leaders here in Austin. She's got a future as you will hear! Enjoy!
John Biewen does great work and has for a long time. This is one of the most moving 3 minutes i have ever heard. Do yourself a favor and listen. Do your listeners a favor and share it with them.

nice voices that really bring home the problems these kids are facing. always nice when someone puts a human face on a problem that is removed from most people's experiences. well put together piece.
Charles has been at this for some time now and he keeps getting better as a host. The music is engaging and makes for a nice change of pace if you are doing any world music programming.
Charles Spira has put together a nice body of work with this series and it keeps getting better as he gains more experience. We're really please to make these shows a regular part of the HD experience for KUT2 listeners.
This is one of my favorite pieces of radio ever. The story is brillaint, the Goldstein read is spot on, the music is perfect. I'm trying to create a show here at KUT just so I have an excuse to air this more than once.

Nicely done
Intro is a bit tough to understand but it really is a nice little story for the season and has a nice punch line
