My hypothetical podcast is a personal book review podcast about romance novels of all types. I am a quick and argumentative romance reader, and my coworkers at the library joke that I should have a podcast about the books I read, so it was easy to land on this idea even though I don’t listen to podcasts. Each episode would be between twenty and thirty-five minutes, and go through my impressions of a romance novel or two.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this sample, I used my own narration combined with the sound of pages flipping, to introduce the book-based idea of the podcast; a quick burst of metal music, to jokingly emphasize that not all of my romance novel opinions are particularly nice; and the ambient sounds of an ice hockey rink, to play off of the book this podcast episode discusses. Transcript and credits below.<\/p>\n\n\n

TRANSCRIPT: (pages riffling) Welcome back to Ripping Through Romance, where I lovingly and enthusiastically talk about romance novels. Unfortunately, in the proud tradition of regency romance readers everywhere, I may be kind of a stickler and occasionally even an edgelord. (guitar riff)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This episode, we\u2019ll be thinking about Icebreaker, (background sounds of an ice rink) by R. A. Graziadei, a recent YA or perhaps new adult novel. It\u2019s a rivalry romance between two college freshmen who are both projected to go at the top of the next NHL draft. To my enduring chagrin, I am in fact a hockey fan\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
