The Panizzardi Telegram podcast episode was excellent and right up my alley: I love scandals. The speaker’s voice was low and quite mysterious throughout the entire episode, only changing the slightest bit when he would quote something or someone. I really enjoyed this. It really sets the tone for the story, which was basically about how a man named Alfred Dreyfus was falsely accused by the French military and sentenced to practically life in prison. After five years of serving, they decided to hold yet another court case for him and he was found guilty again. However, he eventually got his freedom back. Anyways, when given the details of the story, it is way more suspenseful than the summary made it seemed to be.

Besides the voice, the other thing I liked listening to was the music. It was classical music played softly in the background, which I also think helped set the tone because the event took place in 20th century France. It also just wasn’t random and famous classical music. The flow and sound of each song played seemed to have gone perfectly with what he was speaking on at that moment,

One thing I picked up on was how he transitioned from one topic or one story plot to the next. He would eventually come to the conclusion of one topic, the music would continue to play then wane out for a few seconds. Another classical composition would began and then he would began talking. I personally just loved the way it flowed and the pauses between each point. It made it a bit more dramatic, and then with the song choices, you could kind of feel where the story could be going. Overall, it was very good, and very well put together.
