I love the accents you used to distinguish quotes! It kept my attention that you guys had a casual tone and didn’t just provide information.The story about a group of boys who had “magical” abilities is an interesting topic. I can tell you guys did your research and made sure you hit all points like if it was just boys, if the number is accurate, etc. Kids are harsh even back then to make fun of the returning children.
I believe this is an important topic because it’s relatable to knowing our children today. The accents in this podcast are effective as well as funny. The skepticism of the interviewer gives realism to understanding the research being told. The details, such as Saint Francis, are wonderfully presented and kept the listener engaged because they were also fun facts. Great Work!
This was a fun podcast to listen to. I liked the question/answer format and I thought you all had a good dynamic!
This was a fast paced and enjoyable presentation. I agree with everyone else that the accents were fantastic.
First the topic your group chose was very interesting considering not many people know what happened to all these children so it was great to hear why all these children chose to go. You did an excellent job on answering that question as well as how they went and how the medieval world felt about their journey. The editing and background music was done very well and your dialogue kept things light and interesting while delivering the facts. Over all great job!
Great presentation and dialogue made this podcast an easy listen. It would be interesting to find out more about some of the children who ended up disbanding in Europe and if they did anything significant later in life. I think the voices were easily able to outweigh the background music here and I liked that a lot.
Honestly loved the accents you all did a much better job than I would have. I think that the accents kept my attention on the information discussed during the podcast. Overall great podcast, super informative.
The accet was a great addition it helped distinguish the quote and gave a great deal of humor. I also liked the topic because it was a sober topic you managed to make fun.
