The podcast has happened. From my perspective, it went pretty well. The preparation was quite stressful, and the few minutes before the podcast started were very intense. Other team members were late for the preparation. During the rehearsal, my quest and I were supposed to run through the questions, but we checked the sound and view. This unsettled me as it did not go as planned. However, when the recording button was pressed, everything was on me, and there were no more technical issues. 

After the interview finished, I noticed some things: 

  • I did not ask half of my questions ( not including additional ones). However, it is better to have more questions prepared as you never know how the quest will answer. 
  • I was constantly thinking about grammar and how to say everything perfectly. So, because of that, my words tangled a few times. 
  • I was following the time very carefully, and it helped me fit in time with questions.

Overall, I appreciate the opportunity to be a presenter in a podcast. I always wanted to try it out and this project let me do it. For the next time, I would try to plan the time before the recording in order to avoid any issues.
