How did the Honestly my attention was grabbed by the fact it was black girls making this but
podcaster(s) grab besides that the opening music was an interesting way to open it, makes it seem
your attention? fun

What is the narrator It was basically a comparison between this book and other books they’ve read and
trying to accomplish the characters in it
with this episode?

How would you I think my main way to convince them is that we have to help support the black
convince your peers community by subscribing ang helping them up their views
to listen to this
episode?

How did this affect I think this helped my understanding as it gives a good description of the
your understanding characters and an opening although i’ve never read it I would know what im
of the literature? reading

What did you I liked that he sounded very like confident in what he was saying and knew exactly
like/dislike about the what he was talking about
podcaster’s style?

Name 2 things you 1.) I learned that some people care a lot about the author and who he is
learned. 2.) I learned that sometimes podcasts are used to inform and sometimes to
give opinions

How was the episode It started with an opening of the book and author and then a short summary along
structured? with opinions.

How did this affect I think this didn’t help my understanding because it was more of a critique rather
your understanding than an explanation
of the literature?

Which podcast did I liked the first podcast better, it was more lighthearted with a friendly feel to it
you like better? Why?
