Rebecca's Podcast - Dan Brown

Alright, Rebecca!
First off I really enjoyed the introduction you used, the little anecdote about his name being the same size as the title on the book was interesting and informative. It was cute. You also used that song clip which I thought was simultaneously really funny and sort of gave an insight into him aswell.
Your use of humour in the podcast was very nice too, like after playing the song clip saying 'surprisingly enough he didn't continue in music'... I actually laughed.
Its interesting that he wrote a book from a womans perspective and using a female pen name... especially one about finding the right man or whatever it was. It just struck me as odd.
The ties between the writing style and his influences were very clear which was nice. The clarity of the podcast in general was nice.
The background music was very very subtle yet still played a big part in setting the tone, which was cool. I really liked your original piece and I thought the fact that you got your dad to do the guys lines really helped set the tone as it was creepy and haunting and engaging. :)
You also did a very good job of explaining how you emulated Dan Brown's style.
So overall, very good job, I enjoyed watching your podcast :)
