History Of The Sndpocast

The first three years of college Dane worked for Utah Power and Light (Rocky Mountain Power). While he was working for them he read about a scientist of the name Dr. Thomas Stockum Jr. Stockum created the first audio recorded and Dane was extremely interested in this because he loved music. When Dane was a senior he went to the company Stockum was running and practically begged for a job as a janitor just to get his foot in the door. The

In the short story by John Cheever called "The Enormous Radio" it begins with Jim and Irene Westcotts appearing like the perfect American family. Cheever describes them as "the kind of people who seem to strike that satisfactory average of income, endeavor, and respectability" (Cheever 1). What is ironic about this story is the Westcotts are far from being the perfect family and the community they try to conform to is just as imperfect as the Westcotts themselves. A way the Westcotts try to live up to their society is by keeping secret the fact that they listen to the radio and attend musical events. This is because these activities were not something members of their community did. For example, Cheever says the "Westcotts differed

The criminal justice system is meant to protect the innocent, and punish those who are guilty of a crime. However, no system is perfect, and as a result, sometimes the innocent become victims of the system that was meant to protect them. How exactly do these innocent people become victims of the system? Sometimes the person gets framed, and the crime scene is staged to point a finger at them. Sometimes, there is no strong physical evidence against them, yet circumstantial evidence is used by the crown to put them away. This happened to a 17 year old boy named Adnan Syed in Baltimore, Maryland, who was imprisoned for life, for the alleged murder of his ex-girlfriend Hae Lee. Throughout the Serial podcast, Sarah Koenig is able to critically analyze information which proves Adnan’s innocence. Firstly, Asia’s letters gave Adnan an alibi for the time of the murder. Secondly, Adnan’s innocence can be demonstrated through the lack of any strong evidence and the prosecution’s use of circumstantial evidence which can be disproved. Thirdly, Jay’s constantly changing testimony is not credible evidence of Adnan’s guilt, making him innocent.

The Serial podcast, hosted by Sarah Koenig, is about the murder of young Woodlawn High School student Hae Min Lee. Hae was a smart, ambitious, and outgoing young lady taken from this world too soon. Sarah Koenig and the podcast takes us through the ins and outs of typical and unusual teenager behavior to try and uncover something unseen in this case. Adnan Syed, the now convicted murder, and Jay Wilds, the state’s only witness, are the key people of this story. I believe Adnan’s innocence should be maintained because Jay’s story should not have been used for evidence, there was not enough evidence to even arrest Adnan, and Adnan had a trustworthy alibi.

We don’t see much of Jay, rather, we hear quite a lot. What we are hearing from Jay

As I began to type the opening paragraph for my argument paper over the hit podcast “Serial,” I began to realize I was in serious trouble as the words refused to flow. Even without any formal writing education, I prided myself on my ability to write, and convey my ideas with ease through the means of a keyboard. By the end of these pages, it is my hope that you the reader, will be able to get a sense of the adversities I had faced, and what helped me develop my writing process, and abilities.

The podcast Serial, hosted by Sarah Koenig and co founded by Julie Snyder, deals with a murder case that occurred in the year 1999. This murder case deals with two former students (Adnan Syed and Hae Min Lee) that attended Woodlawn High School in Baltimore, Maryland. Hae went missing on January 13, 1999 but was found dead in Leakin Park on February 9. The jury that took up the trial were convinced to believe that the murder must to have been committed by Adnan Syed, “who killed 18 year old student Hae Min Lee.” Syed was arrested on February 28 and charged with first degree murder. Although he pleaded guilty after the judge declared a mistrial, he was found guilty of murdering Hae Min Lee and sentenced for life in prison. However, the lack of

The NPR Link on whether or not we have less sympathy for people facing things we have overcome was a very interesting concept. After listening to the clip I was surprised and intrigued. I thought as individuals we would have more sympathy and empathy for individuals facing things we have overcome, but the NPR link gives a great argument on how we would actually have less sympathy. In the NPR Link one of the things they said was how an individual is more likely to think that if they could get through a particular situation, so can other individuals facing the same situation. They also state that trauma doesn’t make us kinder or more compassionate, but it does have the potential to make us tougher and harsher. Both of these statements

   John Cheever’s "The Enormous Radio" represents the enormous amount of hidden truths in American society of the 1940s. The problems with society during this time were hidden behind a facade of goodness; however, this false innocence becomes visible through the radio owned by the Westcotts. The radio causes the Westcotts to evolve from an innocent, naive pair who believe that everything they see is real, into individuals who realize that appearances are deceiving.

Satellite Radio: Will Howard Stern's move make us change the way we think about radio? Howard Stern's plan to move to satellite radio in January 2006 marks a major turning point for the radio industry. Not only has Stern brought the  possibility of subscribing to satellite radio into the minds of the millions in his audience, he has also gotten more people to start thinking and talking about what really distinguishes satellite radio from traditional radio. Satellite radio was first authorized by the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) in 1997, seven years after initial applications.

The ability to listen well is an important tool for understanding others. Sadly, very few people know how to listen well. In fact, most people can think of only one or two good listeners in their lives. Listening is not simply agreeing - it is much more. Good listeners are able to better understand and respond to others, complete assignments accurately, settle disagreements before they escalate, and establish rapport with difficult people.

There is nothing more exciting then unlocking my home screen as I'm walking back to my dorm building after a long day of quizzes, lectures, and caffeine breaks to find a notification on my phone telling my favorite YouTuber has just uploaded a new video up on their vlog channel. I don’t why I have such a deep obsession with the world of YouTube. Maybe it's because I have a peculiar fascination with watching people who live lives of grandiose fashion. Maybe it's because conspiracy theories of Avril Lavigne having a doppelganger haunts me to the core. Maybe it's because there's content for everyone and everyone is welcomed into a community of people just like themselves. Whatever the reason, YouTube has been a media platform that I have
