Week 11: Audio

Choose two podcasts from this list, and listen to one episode each. (It would be ideal if you actually listened this time, instead of just reading the transcript.)

RESPONSE: Once you’ve listened to two episodes (one from each), respond to these questions (options: blog or FlipGrid):

  • What is the purpose of each podcast?
  • How are these two podcasts the same in format or style?
  • How are these two podcasts different?
  • Who do you think is the audience for these podcasts?
  • How do these two podcasts keep the listener interested?
  • What isn’t working about how these two podcasts try to keep their listeners interested?
  • What makes audio a great way to tell historical stories?
  • What’s challenging about using audio to tell historical stories?

Here’s the brief.
