The podcast was very bland. You had absolutely no sound effects, really taking away from the quality of it. It seemed kind of like you were just insulting the other person. It sounded like you were acting it out or were in a play. If you used more emotion it would have helped. It seemed like the other person was reading with more emotion than you were. The format was good, just executed very poorly. Overall the podcast was decent.

Hour 2

1) When we first saw the title, we thought the podcast would be about how twins can be totally different people, even if they look the same.
2) One thing we liked about the podcast was how she switched between voices, with each character almost. Also, she felt very strongly about her topic, so we as the listeners felt compelled to listen until the end.
3) While the author did many character changes, most of them were extremely choppy. Also, the author was a bit impolite to the other twin, almost abrasive. This made the podcast uncomfortable because it felt as if you were in the middle of an unsettled family argument.
4) We think the podcast could use more sound effects. If there were any sound effects in the podcast, they were not noticeable.
5) We do think the title was good for this podcast and that it directly connected with the story.

It was confusing and did not feel like a story. The message wasn't clear and the ending was abrupt. It felt like a cliffhanger and was waiting for more. The different perspectives were nice, however.

I thought the podcast was going to be about twins being different in their own way and that's exactly what it was about. I liked how it was you and Anna talking to each other, but sometimes it could get a little confusing. I also liked how you had a narrator at the beginning.
I think that you could have made it flow a little bit better and not make the sentences so abrupt. I didn't think your podcast needed sound effects. I think the title could have been something like Twins are Their Own Person, but I think the one you have now is fine.

1. I thought it would be about twins that are not alike at all.
2. I liked how they expressed how they felt, I liked how they said what sports they liked and disliked.
3.I could hear noise in the background. I could not hear it that well.
4.They could be improved
5.The title was very connected to the story because it tells you exactly what the story is about.
