Want to save money and you just don’t know how? Then listen to “Finance Today”, a podcast about how to budget, where to look for good coupons and what to do to lower your bills. “Finance Today” was made because Isaiah’s friends always got jealous when I can always find the best deals. From lowering my internet down to $39.99/month for 500MBPS (including taxes) to having a $30 cell phone plan that works internationally. I always told them that I did #IsaiahMagic to save that money and now my secrets are exposed!
In today’s episode we are talking about gas. How can we lower our gas bill? There are actually apps that you can use to find the lowest gas prices and then use another app to get you a discounted rate for said gasoline. Not only that, some banks offer gas discounts on their credit cards. Did you know that the best time of day to gas up is in the morning? Who would have known! All of this and more in the podcast.
The theme is set to a newscast, similar to CNBC. The intro and outro are very news-like, but different as in something new. The sound effect adds to the podcast due to the relevance to the wording of when it happens (right time and place usage). The logo is a money house, because that is what houses are. A place of investment, a place to store money, and a place to spend money. I do enjoy a podcast that can teach me savings technique and the environment puts me there as if I was watching it on the television.

Hey Isaiah, really nice job! I always enjoy listening to financial podcasts because there is always a trick to learn! Your vocal audio sounded really nice and clear and the fade in and fade outs were done very well when the newscaster music came in at the end. The message was clear and understandable, the music selection made me think immediately of being in a news room coming in with a hot new topic to speak on. I think that this is a podcast that can definitely serve the young adult population when learning tips and tricks on how to not only save, but better prepare them for financial decisions in the future. Overall, very nice job, I would absolutely listen to your podcast!
Nice job! You definitely created a believable podcast. The sound effects and pacing all feel authentic, and the sounds are well balanced/mixed. I think the podcast image you created is the best part! It’s a really eye catching image that alludes perfectly to the podcast’s goals.
