In anticipation of the podcast assignment, I took the time to listen to a few podcasts on my interests.
The first podcast I listened to is the infamous “Welcome to Nightvale”, a series of podcast based on a fictional town located in America.

One may lose interest very quickly when a podcast is just an interview between one person and
