To whom this may concern, I am reaching out to KERA (OR WHOEVER) for a unique opportunity. I am Steven Jotterand and live in the Dallas area. I am a 21 year old student at Collin College, and have just applied to transfer to Northwestern University, the University of Chicago, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I intend to continue my academic quest in political science and journalism. I love to ask questions, explore ideas, and be thought provoking. As a way to express my passion for journalism, I have been producing and hosting podcasts about soccer and politics. The first one, Balls & Boys Soccer Podcast, started in August of 2015. At the time I was living in Denver, Colorado (2014-2016) and the podcast was more of a way to stay connected with my co-host, Erik Siv. We love soccer and it was a perfect match. However, more importantly, it gave me a chance to explore what it is like to do work as a journalist. Since the start of the show, I have learned a lot about podcasting, producing, editing, marketing, and hosting. …show more content…

When I explored Johns Hopkins University online, I came to a conclusion that it has everything that one could possibly dream of. To begin with, JHU is capable of nurturing a comprehensive liberal education while allowing a remarkable amount of freedom in designing one’s own curriculum. Moreover, as a person hungry for intellectual stirrings, I wish to be surrounded by people equally eager to learn and folks considerably smarter. I want to acquire knowledge from those around me and share mine to contribute to the richness of JHU’s environment. Furthermore, I would love to take advantage of various research opportunities. Without a doubt, at Johns Hopkins University, I will continue to variegate my experiences by immersing into a vibrant, diverse intellectual community of scholars. Moreover, I am sure that JHU's academic approach will endow my natural curiosity with adequate tools to expand my intellectual horizons and become a Renaissance
The podcast I chose to cover was Bill Burr's Monday morning podcast. The podcast was independently started by Bill Burr himself back in May of 2007 then in October 2012 it became a part of the podcast Network all things comedy which it still runs on today. Bill Burr is a very well accomplished comedian having any specials on HBO Starz and Comedy Central and also a recurring show on Netflix and also my favorite comedian so when I found out he had a podcast I had to tune in. Each podcast episode 1 hour where Bill will dive into past, current, and recent events Sports, interviews with guests, and my favorite segment is when he offers advice to listeners. The advice column is my favorite part because people always assume they know what Bill Burr will say or what advice he'll give on the
