Podcast
For me the biggest difference between written and spoken text is that written text can sometimes be bland and boring where as spoken text seems to hold the audiences attention. I am not by any means saying that this is always true because I have listened to some very boring podcasts before, but I have a strong feeling that this class will make some very entertainig podcasts.

My major revision plan for my podcast is to shorten my script that way my podcast is not so drawn out (eight minutes is just a little bit to long for me). Also Kayla suggested that I slow down my speed when I am talking. At first I did not realize that I was talking so fast until I went back and listened to it again, so I will definitly be talking slower in my final podcast. Another thing that I need to work on is that I studdered a little bit probably because I was nervous, so I will definitly be working on that little problem when i record again.

Feedback is also welcome so feel free to comment on my podcast.
