Limetown is a podcast very similar to the very popular podcast Serial. The podcast uses an array of sounds from helicopters, news broadcasts, several interviews, a narrator, and more. This intertwining of sounds allows for a stimulating mix of sounds to help make the podcast more interesting to listen to.

A moment of sound that I found interesting in Limetown was the mashup of news anchors reporting on the disappearance of the people of Limetown. This happens around the 3:00 time mark. This mashup allows for the listener to experience how big of an epidemic this was, since it was being broadcasted on multiple platforms with concern waving through the sound of the broadcasters voices.

I really enjoyed most parts of the podcast as a whole and how they utilized different sounds to make the listener feel as if they were there physically or actually watching Limetown as a television show. The sounds set for a very serious mood throughout the podcast which also better helps the listener understand the severity of the situation.

The one part of the podcast that I was not a fan of was the beginning interview. To me, it sounded very stale and set up. That was an aspect of sound throughout the podcast that I wasn’t a fan of and I felt like it hurt the mood and intent of the podcast rather than help it.

Overall, I really enjoyed the podcast and the use of sound to really capture the attention of the audience. When there are no visual aspects to something, the affect of sound plays a major role in how an idea or story comes across.
