Session 11 3/25/2015 - Posted on 2015-03-27 by Andrew Zarycki

After the show this morning Newy wanted me to record a 10 minute segment for him.  I got to use the stations mic and headphones and sit in the Host's chair, it was like the real deal.  Very cool experience.  The best part was that I nailed it.  I went the whole 10 minutes and talked about my topic convincingly.  Newy thought so too, said I did very well for my first time recording with him.  His critiques were that I need to slow down.  I'm a fast talker naturally and he said that a tough part of this job is to know when to slow down.  He knows it's not a natural thing to do but with practice I will get the hang of slowing my rate of speech and getting a clear message to the listeners.  He also said I need to pause more.  That will help let my ideas and opinions fester a little in the minds of my listeners and they can form their own opinions.  Just a brief pause nothing to long but it definitely helps the show.  I can't wait for my next recording with him to see if I have improved.
