Then the episode is split into 4 different sections. Each sections’ focal point is the guest and their work. For instance the first guest was Allan Adams, so the focus point was his work with gravitational waves. Guy would ask Allan questions, and music would softly play or intensify depending on how astonishing the work Allan was discussing was. Sometimes a clip from the guests actual TED TALK would be played back. Each interview ended on a positive cliff hanger for what the next discovery by the scientist may be, this was accompanied with music that peaked at their final statement.

Podcast : ARMCHAIR with Dax Shepard 

Season 1 / Episode 1 : Kristin Bell 

https://podtail.com/en/podcast/armchair-expert-with-dax-shepard/kristen-bell/

Context - Dax Shepard has recently come out with his own podcast featuring his close friends and family, using his decade of sobriety, degree in anthropology and years of improv training to become an "armchair expert" about the human condition. This podcast is distributed through Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Play and through Podtail.com every two weeks. 

Context - In this episode Dax interviews his wife Kristin Bell. The two discuss what makes their marriage work and Dax reveals his first impressions of Kristen when they started dating. Kristen explains her life philosophy and how it dictates her every decision. The two of them question their impact on social media and the miss representation they feel its imposes on their famously assumed "perfect marriage". 

Form - The structure of this story is slightly sporadic since Dax and Kristin frequently interject in between each others stories of their life together, but for the most part follows the sequence of chronological order from when the two met and their early years as actors to present day. This podcast includes personal stories that one would not know other wise about these two actors, as well as memories and the individual struggles they have gone through in life, adding to the intimacy of this podcast. It includes very few sound edits, so the listener can hear both Dax and Kristin's first hand uncensored responses to each other including profanity, laughing and the in between sounds the two make while talking with one another in conversation, such as sighs and sometimes obvious disagreement. This podcast relies on its genuine and raw form in order to entice listeners to this 

"real talk" style audio storytelling.

https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/new-york-city-crime-report-with-pat-dixon/the-last-podcast-on-the-left/e/52868701

Context: The Last Podcast on the Left, Episode 300: Jonestown Part I - Everyone in the World is My Friend. Hosted by Ben Kissel, Marcus Parks, and Henry Zebronski.

This episode was released January 12, 2018, and is available on iTunes, Soundcloud, and Sticher.

Synopsis: This episode, which runs 1 hour and 46 minutes, is the first of a five-part series discussing the cult and city involved with the cult known as Jonestown. The hosts dive deeply into the habits and doings of the cult leader, Jim Jones, and lay out how he became the leader of the crazy cult.

This first episode is solely focused on the build-up to the forming of the cult so it is mainly presenting background information and facts that are necessary for someone to understand the scope of the cult's power and who the leader is.

Form: Much like "Serial", the podcast uses musical transitions and recordings of interviews with the people being discussed. There are a few recordings of Jim Jones speaking about himself and his religion earlier in his life that do a good job setting the scene for the next four parts of the series.

The hosts also do a couple funny things such as cursing repeatedly, openly mocking the events they are describing, and give the listener insight into what they are doing in the show. For example, 15 minutes in at the end of Act 1, one of the hosts literally says, "And that's act one right there."

This style of talking and the way all three personalities go about presenting evidence and laying out the story makes it seem less like an educational listen and more like listening to a group of three guys tell a story at a bar. With the language and humor involved in a very dark story, it makes it educational and comedic at the same time which I greatly enjoyed.

Act 1- narrator introduces the case of beloved teacher, Tara, who has gone missing right after leaving a BBQ. Narrator also introduces himself and how he came about this case. He says he is not a podcaster in any way, but he wanted to know what happened to Tara, so he decided to further investigate it. He wanted to do a documentary one day and decided to do this podcast in order to solve this case. The narrator starts calling people trying to learn more about Tara. He proceeds to say that he could barely reach anyone about tis cast, and when he could finally contact someone, they would not give him answers on this case.

Act 2- starts at about 11:00--the narrator goes on to describe the moment when Tara went missing. Faculty at the school she worked at noticed that she missed work, but never called in sick which was very odd for Tara. Her co-workers call the police and the police go to her house. He says how police investigated her room and saw a knocked over lamp shade and thought it was odd so further investigation for this case was sought out. The narrator visits the private investigator. The private investigator says that he found a ripped necklace which could explain struggle. He says that the GBI did an awful job in collecting evidence for this case.

He calls his grandmother asking if she remembered about this case and she said that her friend knew more about this case. She gives him her friends name and says to contact her.

White Haze Podcast

Context: The American Life. September 22, 2017. This was made to take a lens to the Proud Boys group following the white nationalist rally in Charlottesville. You can listen online on their site or download it as well.

Content: Act One Lost in the Proud - Goes into detail about the group Proud Boys. Interviews several members of the group. It tells the story of Dante Nero, a guy that has been involved with the movement since before it had a name. It goes into how the group has progressed and how it kinda of changed over time.

Form: The story is heavily told through interviews of the people involved. It asks these guys to explain their views and how they feel. It uses music transitions to signal different sections and different people talking which helps with the flow of the story. It starts with the inception and introduction to the group the Proud Boys and then goes into talking about the Charlottesville rally. It has a lot of focus on letting people tell their story and creates imbalance by providing many different contrasting viewpoints. What the Proud Boys stand for is debated on heavily, even within the group and it has changed a little over time from what it was originally founded for.

This American Life: Episode 542 “Wait - Do You Have the Map?

https://www.thisamericanlife.org/542/wait-do-you-have-the-map

I chose a story from the podcast “Wait - Do You Have the Map?”, which was episode 542 of the This American Life series.  The story I listened to was told by Christopher Rhodes.  The station prefaces the stories by calling them “stories about people who are feeling lost and trying to figure out how to move ahead”.  This type of story can expose people to different things people around them may be going through but also help people who are feeling lost, navigate those feelings.  The purpose is both informational and therapeutic. The podcast can be listened to on the This American Life website and app, and the Pandora, Apple Podcast, and Radio Public phone apps. 

This story in the podcast is about how two people from very different backgrounds form a relationship.  Joan, who is from a more generic suburban background, volunteers writing to prisoners, where she meets Michael, a man in prison because of murder. Through letters and then visitations they form this relationship, and end up getting married. A rare scenario occurs where Michal is released from prison which puts their relationship on an entirely new platform.  The podcast covers their meeting all the way to how they navigate each other and their changing relationship when Michael is finally released from jail.

The story is made up of narrations as well as interviews from both Joan and Michael. The narrator helps to bridge gaps and explain background information for the listener, helping guide them through the passage.  Joan and Michael’s interviews are usually about relaying some detail of an event, but also are very effective in making the podcast seem more personal and having the listener understand their relationship on a more intimate level, helping see them as real people not just hypotheticals. There is music that is used in the background but also used to break up different sections of the story.  The story told is compelling for a number of reasons.  The very bases of the story is one that is interesting on its own, because it is describing a relationship that is not portrayed very often, and therefore intrigues the listener.  I found the way they presented it compelling because they gave interesting details about things that made it feel more personal and as if I was really getting to understand the raw and true details of the relationship, and not just being told the artificial surface of it.  The story started out with a good base but the way it was told made it even more compelling for the listener.

Synopsis
The long lost mystery of why a girl named Rose got kicked out of her sorority, Alpha Chi Omega, is uncovered by Jonathan Goldstein. Jonathan interviews sisters, ex boyfriends, and even Alpha Chi headquarters to try and figure out why Rose was forced to quit.

Form
Act One: 
-Rose is introduced as a rebel who never planned on hanging with the popular kids or joining a sorority or participating in greek life during her time at North Florida University. She then explains that she met a boyfriend in a fraternity, and got to know some Greek kids very well. She then rushed and got a bid from Alpha Chi Omega. She then said she started to love sorority life as well as being in the "in" crowd. She ended up getting cancer, but her sorority sisters would take her to concerts and check up on her constantly. Her cancer went into remission her spring semester, and she went back into normal college life able to enjoy parties and things again. About 5 weeks later, they asked her to resign from Alpha Chi. They won't tell Rose why she is being kicked out, just that "She knows what she did." Years later, Rose is still dying to know why she got kicked out.

Act Two:
-Jonathan begins to reach out to Rose's old sorority sisters via phone, but none of them have time to talk. Once Jonathan started getting rejected for phone calls, all the girls started talking to themselves about the weird guy snooping around, and all the girls remained rejecting him. Jonathan then called the Alpha Chi Omega headquarters. The lady looks up Rose's information, and informs Jonathan that if Rose called in herself, she might be able to receive her file. Rose ends up having to make an appointment with a lady named Mindy, and she can't get a hold of her for months. They eventually send her a document, stating that Rose RESIGNED OF HER OWN ACCORD, with no other information to share. Finally, Rose gets on the phone with one sister named Trisha. Trisha said that after Rose got cancer, she started to revear down a bad path and got "angry at life" with a "no one can tell me what to do attitude." Trisha said she wanted to give Rose specific examples of why she got kicked out, but she said "She just can't." Rose if frustrated, because trisha mentioned that sometimes one or two people have to be removed for the overall health of the organization, like cancer.

Act Three: 
-Rick, Rose's college boyfriend, gave Jonathan a call and told him that he was also kicked out of his fraternity Kappa Alpha. This was new news to Rose, and she was quite shocked. Rose calls Rick, and he shares that he was kicked out via phone call. Rose recalls that she broke up with Rick after she went into remission, Rick took that well and thought she needed to experience life. Rick thought other people thought she wasn't being very considerate or nice by breaking up with him after he had taken care of her all through cancer. Rick also thought that after the broke up, people took sides, and each sides started rumours about the other. Both of their names started getting ruined through a series of crossed gossip. Rumours like cheating, Rose doing Sleezy things, and being a party animal that Rick's friends started were what the sorority most likely went off of to kick her out. Rose decides that ultimately she just wasn't an Alpha Chi and they may have forced her out earlier if it hadn't been for her cancer.

Storytelling Elements:  
-a catchy theme song plays in the beginning of the podcast while the speaker introduces himself.
-interesting chime like music that plays while Rose talks about her story
-Rose's voice got blurred out in the background while the speaker Jonathan summed up what all she was saying
-sounds like the phone ringing and going to voicemail are included in the series
-you can hear things like children screaming in the background
-catchy closing song with actual singing

Context: 

From Serial and This American Life, hosted by Brian Reed

7 Chapters with 50 minute episodes

Content:

John hates his hometown of Alabama, Woodstock, and despises how the wealthy people of his town can sweep the "dirt" under the rug and not be held responsible. He complains that his town has 95 churches no places of secondary education. He is disturbed by the small talk of murder and the absence of justice, so he contacts a reporter to get to the bottom of it.

Form:

Teaser-  A small excerpt about the upkeep of clocks and their necessary functions.

Act 1- Introduction of the unfortunate story of Dylan Nichols and the many other side stories happening in Woodstock that deserve justice. John also explains his lonely lifestyle of depression and isolation. Brian Reed can't find any evidence of the murder, or really any information on Bibb County at all. 

1st Turning Point- Brian Reed goes down to Woodstock, Alabama to check it out for himself.

Act 2- John gives Brain a personal tour of his home and his maze. Brain searches on the internet for information on Dylan. John and Brain search John’s ledger for any clues on pinpointing the time period of this “murder.” They go to the library to search through the records, and find nothing.

Act 3- John shows Brian his home-made clocks, making a full circle back to the teaser. Skylar, Jake Goodson’s wife, admits to the same story John has been constantly saying: someone has been murdered.

Storytelling Elements-
