I listened to a very informational podcast. It was called Sharks of Palau and it was a podcast from Animal Planet. It may sound boring, however to me,I was listening so closely to what the narrator had to say for his voice was deep and mysterious and it fit perfectly with the theme. I learned that sharks are not always dangerous creatures and if you are friendly enough they can actually be very friendly and playful. I also learned something that made me dislike sharks a little bit. If a sharks get a hold of you, it can only take one little bit on a nerve and you can be dead. On the other hand, people who study sharks aren’t surprised with all the stories they hear about shark attacks. I learned that if a shark smells the smallest amount of blood, it knows exactly the way to go to find dinner for the night. The podcasts I considered were any podcast about animals. I love animals and I could listen to stories about them all day long. I think it is fascinating how their lives are so much alike and so much different than ours. I stumbled across this podcast on iTunes. In the search tab, I typed in animals and I saw something about sharks. I am totally afraid of sharks and I thought learning about them would be fun. I listened to the 25 minute long podcast on iTunes. My thoughts were, wow, I never would have known a educational podcast would be so exciting and I was at the edge of my seat listening to it! I was waiting for something scary to happen because of the man’s tone of voice and the music playing in the back. This is the comment I left: ” I thought this podcast was exciting and educational. I enjoyed listening to what the divers had to say. Keep these podcasts coming because I will sit at my computer all day and listen to them. I learned so many things such as sharks aren’t always harmful and could be very playful.” If you want to listen to the podcast here’s a link, but it isn’t to iTunes: http://kids.learnoutloud.com/Kids-Catalog/Science/Biology/Animal-Planet-Presents-Podcast/23091#plink
