Statcast
Statcast is a podcast from MLB.com. What makes this different from other podcasts is that people
who want to hear it need to click then downloaded and then sign in with an account,
which takes time. These podcast also cost money and are very expensive. What sets them apart from the other podcast also
is that it’s not from a show on TV or radio. Statcast is an online only podcast.
Unlike traditional podcasts they are not on every day and there are no
commercials in this podcast.
Statcast dives right into the story with no intro or build up.
This is unlike traditional broadcasting because of the lack of intro to the
programs. Listeners do not call in with
questions. They just take tweets and
then talk about the topic.
This podcast is not live, another way that podcasts are
usually unlike traditional broadcasting.
They also typically sign on and just go straight to the show without any
build up or excitement. The episode I
was listening to was dry since there were no features and lacked insight on the
show topics. When you listen to a podcast it doesn’t have the same feel as does
a typical radio program. I liked that in
this episode that they where covering key stories. I don’t like that it goes too fast without
dialog or build up like in real radio.

MSNBC TV and News
The podcasts from MSNBC TV and News aren’t as long in length
as a typical podcast episode. These are
short episodes, with only one version.
You have to visualize the show without seeing it. No interviews are
heard just the clip from the program.
This takes a TV clip and makes a podcast of it. The viewers have to see with their mind.
It’s unlike traditional radio, here the viewer or browser
selects particular episodes from various MSNBC TV shows. The viewer can select the format, such as
iTunes, and if they want the video or audio only version.
Most podcasts are a little longer in length than just one
audio clip since a short podcast is not enough to satisfy the listeners. Listeners to a podcast need to have the main
show then have it divided into segments and interviews. The viewers need more from a program instead
of a clip from what listeners have been used to before. This podcast is a little longer in length. It
comes in two feeds, TV and radio. Viewers need to decide on one. I don’t like
the length of the podcast. I feel as if the podcast should be longer and give
the audience more to listen to in the program.

ESPN Sporting Life
The Sporting Life podcast is
a pre-recorded podcast. The podcasts are weekly episodes of The Sporting Life
show and features “the best of” moments. They cut out certain parts of the live show to
speed it up.
A podcast can be listened to
at anytime. Listener’s get to what the show is about right away. In a regular radio program you getting
everything from start to finish. People
can go online and listen to a podcast at anytime and listen to their favorite episode
for as long as it’s online. These podcasts do not have the radio introduction
material. They go straight into the
program that is on that day. They cut out interviews and get to the highlights.
Podcasts make a show go faster than the length of a typical radio program. What
I like about podcasts is getting to the main stories that are covered right
away without an introduction. These podcast are not live and spend little time
on one segment before going on to the next one very quickly.
