Weekly review

 
This week I learned a lot. Going into this project, I assumed that it wouldn’t be too hard. I quickly learned about how wrong I was. The amount of time it takes for someone to pull off a podcast is a lot. From just setting up each and every day to researching and coming up with fresh new ideas for our listeners, I was always busy. Overall the experience thus far has been quite fun though. I’ve really enjoyed creating this podcast with Cha. My favorite thing about the podcast is definitely just talking into the microphone. While I know that only Cha is listening to me speak in actual time, I know that people want to hear what I have to say and that’s an amazing feeling. Besides that, I’ve also enjoyed working with cha on this podcast. Even though I’ve known him for the past 4 years and we've hung out every day, I’ve gotten to know him a lot better in the past week. Getting to know his music taste has definitely allowed me to understand him a lot better. So far everything has been as expected except for the one day where we had trouble with my mic. Other than that everything has been smooth sailing. Going into next week, I believe Cha and I both know that we can definitely produce more content. We both know that from first-hand experiences that people want to listen to what we have to say on this podcast and that we shouldn’t keep them waiting.

5/10/21 "First Day Out"

  For the first day of senior project, it wasn’t really eventful. Charlie and I spent most of the day coming up with ideas and topics for our first podcast. I’ve had an ongoing list of ideas that have popped into my head since spring break, so we went through that all day and started to pick out certain topics we think would be fun. Before all that though, we went and met with our mentor, Scott Allenby, to check in with him. We all wanted to come up with a plan for how we would best use him and what he thinks would be best for us during this time. We went over logistics and he gave us insightful comments on how we can make our project even better. After going through topics and meeting with Scott, cha and I went and picked up our gear. All of our equipment came in today, so we spent some time going through what we needed and if we needed anything else. The first day wasn’t too crazy, but I can tell we are “Just heating up”- Lil baby.

“Stressed out” Tribe called quest

Wednesday so far has been our most exciting day so far. We spent the morning coming up and finalizing our topics for our first podcast. We decided that for the first episode, we should introduce our listeners to who we are and what we listened to. We chose to talk about our top five artists and our top 5 albums for the majority of our podcast. This was purely subjective and not objective so that people could understand us. After finalizing our topics we started to record mid-morning before lunch. After finishing up our first recording and playing back the audio, we realized that my mic wasn’t working properly. We thought we weren't going to have enough time to record it again due to Charlie and I having sports. We ended up recording it again before dinner with everything correct. Cha and I spent the rest of the night editing the podcast to put it out that day and we did. The day was rough but it was awesome though!

"Apple Pie" - Travis Scott

Today, like yesterday, was a slow day. We spent the morning trying to figure out whether or not we were ready to record. We both felt that we needed more content, so we spent the morning coming up with ideas. We also took to our Instagram to see what viewers were saying about what they wanted to see out of us. We ended up recording that afternoon, although they were mostly puff segments. Today was such a nice day, so we spent a lot of time outside.  Took a picture of an apple tree to send to my family
