I listened to Limetown, and what I first noticed were the different layers of sound during the introduction, specifically in the news broadcast recreations. I really liked the sequence starting at 2:55. The blending in and out of different news anchors speaking reminded me a lot of the title sequence from the movie Miracle. The variety of the sequence, especially in broadcast languages, gives the listener a good idea of how far reaching the news of this event was. I don’t think the technique is very hard (I could be wrong), and it adds a great effect to the realism of the podcast.

Another interesting sound I noticed was the clicking of cameras in the background. The first occurrence at 2:38 was very hectic. The clicking sound was constant, and I thought it seemed a little unrealistic at first, like there were too many cameras. However, as the episode went on and worldwide interest was established the intensity of the clicking track made sense. The camera click returned around the 12 minute mark during the congressional hearing. This time it was much less intense, and seemed much more appropriate. It was a definite choice made by the producers to have the same sound tweaked for different situations. An outdoor press briefing would be a lot more chaotic than a smaller, more private hearing.
