Podcast Reflection

The topic of my podcast was health care systems; my topic was very critical in selection. I was not sure how to link my webtext to the podcast, but I finally came up with a way on how to link the two, since they were both health care related. The audience I chose for my podcast was patients because I think this issue affects all of them one way or the other. The purpose was to bring this issue into the mind of patients to be able to take action; it was like a wake up call to action, by petitioning their state senators to work on a bill that addresses this issue.

I think the organization and presentation of the podcast was given in a very simple format, just the main points and a couple of examples to make the listener think of how this issue affects them. To my best knowledge I think this podcast was presented in a very simplified manner, and would be good for a web reader. I actually wrote a lot of materials, but while I was recording most of them sounded redundant, so I had to take some things out.

It actually took longer than expected to finish the recording despite the fact that the audacity software was easy to work with. I had stop and rerecord several times. I also think my selection of music would make the podcast a very good one. There were not too many materials on the Internet, but I came up with materials from my own personal experience. Overall I think there was not enough time to do a better job, but it was good at the end. I hope listeners would take action now to take care of the health care crises in America
