This was an interesting podcast. With a mixture of interesting audio and neat tech tricks, Shak was able to create a truly unique experience for his listeners.
The influence you mentioned were very interesting, how you talked about the effect of not having a mother figure in his life, and the effect of the "evil" stepmother.
I liked how you mentioned how he would to take aspect from real life and turn them into something creative. I thought this was an important aspect that continues throughout his life.
I liked your analysis of his style of writing. His mechanics of only using a single quotation marks and the constant use of comma reminded me of ee cummings, and the way he uses mechanics in interesting ways to make a point.
Talking about the use of a first person narrative, and how he does it for the purpose of his audience being able to see the world he has created from the protagonist’s perspective.
Good use of visuals in this piece, as well it was kind of creepy how you were able to make the lips of the pictures move, this was interesting yet distracting to the listeners because we were so creped out.
Overall I enjoyed listening to our podcast, i thought you touched on some very interesting piece of his writing style, and how his past affected his style of writing.
Good job, it was quite interesting.
