Review of Getting Raised (Hour long program with 5 or 3 min. newshole)

There are some nice gems in this hour-long programme by KUOW's Youth Radio.
These are personal stories from a diverse group of voices -- ethnically, culturally and in experiences.
My favourite was found nearly a half-hour in and it's by a young woman coming-out to her family. Her story was engaging, her parents so real, her experience so heartwarming.
The overall narrator/anchor of the program engages in a warm exchange with her mom. Whether you're a parent or not, you can't help but identify with and learn from their relationship.
Musical interludes are appropriate and help move the stories along.
