summary for Podcast 1: This american life Middle School

This American life starts out with a monotone interviewer who fluctuates his voice here and there in a failing attempt to sound animated. The reporter speaks with a gidy14 year old middle school grad who proposes a podcast on middle school and basically its hardships.She would probably claim that middle schoolers ought to be awarded for being the cruelest most judgmental stage of student through out education. She claims "kids are in socially awkward stages" and that "no matter what you do or who you are you will get made fun of for it." Middle schoolers are all trying to determine who they are and part of doing so is by being insecure and subsequently mean to others. But agreeing with the interviewee, " whatever middle school was it worked, everyone's a lot friendlier now," once people have established a base for themselves and feel accepted they can branch out and expand their horizons and viewpoints on each other. Luckily by high school, most kids have matured enough to be accepting, encouraging and friendly to everyone around them.
