Podcast - Tokyo Police Club, Wait Up

The podcast about the song Wait Up by the indie band Tokyo Police Club will start by playing from 1:25-1:40. I plan to start the beginning of the podcast by mentioning how the band begun, mention that all of the 4 members had been in a band that broke up, how they missed to play music together one day they reunited in a basement and played their instrument just for fun. As well I plan to introduce were the band is from, Ontario Canada, and introduce all of the members and the instruments they play.

Podcast

In class we were asked to to listen to a podcast and then answer some questions. The podcast I decided to listen was Sorry to Bother you by the coup. I decided to choose this podcast due to its interesting cover of the society challenging law enforcement. The podcast I heard was intertwining due to its well timing when placing the music and the tone of the voices during the it. I agree with the opinions mentioned in this podcast because I believe the song is a fast beat fun song, overall I believe that the song in this podcast is a good entertaining song. In the podcast listened there were some interesting techniques used. One of their techniques was the way that fragments of the song were included in the podcast, it made the listener pay more attention and also it was entertaining. As mentioned before I liked their tone of voice because it was energetic and interesting but it wasn't over the top. The podcast began by playing a fragment of the song, I thought it was a good way to begin it due that the listener got familiarized with the song. At the end I believe that there was some kind of mistake due that suddenly the podcast ended wile the speakers were in the middle of a sentence, I am not sure it it was done on purpose to make it more mysterious or if it was just a mistake.
