This is an important and topical piece that I will most definitely use with my high school and college students. The importance of privacy and the relinquishing of private information to the public realm is a choice that many students do not think about when it comes to possible employment.
A gut-wrenching (pun-intended) follow-up to Rocky's previous piece about his ongoing battle with obesity. The SFX and narrative are pithy and real, especially the stark reality of his surgery's aftermath. Rocky's willingness to share more intimate moments (the bathroom sequence is not for the squeamish) make this Radio Rookie piece something I use with my students.
