The first podcast I wanted to focus on is CourtCov Podcast that is run by my brother Nadiv Edelman. While this podcast has only been around for a year and just started its second season there are elements that entice listeners. For instance, as he continuously posted new episodes he incorporated an introduction theme song to start the episode on the right foot. As he enters the new season for his podcast he decided to change the theme song to relate to the podcast. In addition, his choice of topic and with is already successful Instagram account he gets a lot of people who are interested in what he thinks about the NBA.
The next podcast that I would like to discuss about is the Michael Kay podcast who is one of the voices of Yes and the New York Yankees. The parts that make The Michael Kay Show podcast so intriguing to listen to are the way he starts off every show and how passionate he is with everything he talks about while he is on the air. Another way he gets the listeners so engaged is he has his audience call in and ask questions about anything and everything around sports. A third way that Michael Kay is that he is very persuasive with his ideas and he can be aggravating which draws in listeners.
The third podcast that I want to highlight is the New Heights podcast with Jason and Travis Kelce. What makes this podcast so inviting is how quick they can change their tone from being serious to being so hyped about the content that they are discussing. In addition, despite being current and former National Football League players they are capable of talking about arrange of topics which broadens their audience. Furthermore, Jason and Travis Kelce are two of the funniest people not just in the NFL but in sports. Their ability to crack jokes at any moment keeps the attendance high and happy.
I chose this topic because this is a topic that I am extremely passionate about. The New York Rangers are tied for my favorite team with the New York Yankees but they are my favorite team to watch in the winter. Challenges that I might face in the future is picking new songs or sound effects if my original choices are copy-righted. The fact that I might stumble on my thoughts and have too many thoughts that I go over the 10 minute mark. Another challenge that I might struggle with is using the podcast app that I will use to record myself.
