Audio: Bring Your Own, “Was it Worth It?” by Jon Greene

Bring Your Own is a nomadic storytelling series that takes place in living rooms, backyards and other intimate spaces within the community. Each month, seven storytellers have 7 minutes to respond to a theme. BYO airs on “All Things New Orleans” and is a biweekly podcast on WWNO.org.

Under the theme of “Secret Weapon,” Jon Greene opens up about the difficulty of working with challenging students – and how sometimes, nobody wins. With drama there are tears, emotional reactions, and important timing.
