Review of Joey Interviews a Cutter

This intimate conversation between 2 young men provides some insight into the little discussed phenomenon of cutting. In an ideal world, you would hear that the cutter is receiving treatment that is helping him overcome it, but you don't, so it is uncomfortable listening; But nonetheless important listening.
Could be used with great effect, as an opener on a youth-focused call-in show, to introduce the subject matter, and prompt discussion.
