Arizona Podcast
(Written by kencraw)
I’ve posted my Arizona game podcast. You can hear it over on the podcast page.
Since I do these podcast while driving home from the game I’m doing them from memory using my feeble memory skills. In addition to this meaning that I may not cover all of the topics I’m intersted in, it also means I’m liable to say some things that are just plain false. Also, sometime I make errors because I haven’t had a chance to read any of the post game articles or commentary and I don’t listen to the radio during the game. They may illuminate something that I didn’t catch in the stands. This week, I caught two errors during editing:
- This is Jordan’s 4th year as a starter, not his third.
- It turns out Forsett did have a minor injury that was why Montgomery was playing in the 3rd quarter. Of course the fumble put the end to that
I’m sure there were other minor ones but those were the glaring errors.
Finally, I know about 20-30 people are downloading the podcast each week, which is great, but I haven’t gotten significant feedback from those who have listened to my podcasts. I always want to improve and would love to hear everyones comments. For example, I added an audio intro a little while back, what do peopl think of it? This week’s podcast is a lot longer than the previous ones… is that good or bad? Is the large amount of background car noise distracting? Consider the comment section for this post the best place to answer those questions and provide feedback.

I haven’t listened to your latest podcast yet since I’ve been a little busy. But the new intro and stuff sounds good. It makes the podcast sound more professional. I haven’t noticed the background noise too much. Immediate post game thoughts are interesting and I like how you can then contrast them with game thoughts after a rewatch and seeing the box score.

Ken –
I enjoy your podcasts. I like the way you provide commentary on the game seemingly stream of conscious, without any prepared dialouge. Nevertheless, I believe some structure would help listeners as we can expect where in the podcast you will be sharing specific information.
For starters, I feel it would be helpful if you can start each podcast by spending a little time to talk about the outcomes of the game including but not limited to the final score, key stats, and what this win/loss (hopefully not a loss going forward) would mean for the Bears.
Cheers.

Thanks for the feedback guys. That’s a good pont RollOnYouBears, I don’t provide any context for the commentary do I? I’ll make it a point to give a quick game summary before launching into my comments.
Keep the feedback coming…
