Music Used: “Stage 1 Level 24” by Monplaisir
Rethinking the essay into podcast format was a little bit difficult at first. Prior to starting the podcast I set up audacity so that was helpful. I think drafting the script of the podcast was the hardest part because I had to get away from the format of the essay, and condense it. However, once I scripted the podcast and did a few drafts of it it was pretty easy to get started. I would estimate that it took me about two hours for figuring out the software, drafting the podcast, actually doing the podcast, and making edits to it.
I typically do not like narrative style podcasts, but yours was a fairly interesting one compared to others I have heard. I liked how you would talk about something Bain or Dweck mentioned, and would then incorporate some of your own personal experiences. One recommendation I have is to embed the music into the podcast instead of recording it while you are talking.
