My First Podcast

-

Hey guys! This week's assignment in class was to create a podcast discussing an issue in the social media world. I decided to partner up with Brandon Berry to discuss a topic that we have both been thinking about recently. In our podcast, we talked about social media and its effects on mental health. 

Like I said, I've never created a podcast before, and neither had Brandon. It was a little nerve-wracking at first, but once we had a plan and started recording, we felt like naturals! It definitely helped that we planned ahead and gave ourselves a general outline of everything we wanted to say. 

All in all, this was an interesting experience, to say the least. I think we both learned a lot, and I can now see why marketers would use this outlet to discuss important topics in the industry. 

Below is a link to our podcast, and some show notes as well!

Social Media and its Effect on Mental Health - Anna & Brandon

Show Notes:

In today's podcast, we will be discussing social media's effect on mental health, how to recognize if social media is impacting your mental health and some ways to modify social media use to improve your relationship with social media. 

We also discussed if we thought we would be able to give up social media for a whole week or not. And if we did this if we thought our mental health would benefit from this or would the task make the issue worse? Then, we wrapped up by discussing an interesting article we both read on the topic. 

Hopefully, you got the chance to listen to our podcast, and thought it was interesting! As always, feel free to leave a comment - let us know what you thought of the podcast or some tips for podcasting in the future!

Week 10

Hello fellow bloggers! I have some big news... I bought three fish! This was a very impulsive decision, but I thought it would be fun to have some apartment-friendly pets. I ended up in the pet store because one of my friends wanted to get some fish, but she decided against it, and I decided I was going to get a few of the 16-cent goldfish.  I'm not expecting them to last forever solely based off of their price, but their purpose is to just provide a little bit of happiness for however long they live. They still don't have any names, so if you have any ideas feel free to drop them in the comments. We haven't had a track meet in two weeks and somehow, I'm more exhausted without them. We were supposed to have a track meet this weekend, but they ended up canceling it due to the weather. So, in lieu of a track meet, our coaches had us do an intra-squad mixed-gender relay race. We were broken up into groups for a 4x200 meter, 30-lap, and 5x400 meter relay races. We were all

Busy Weekend in Ada

Hey there, fellow bloggers - I had a super busy weekend again!  Friday night was super exciting... my boyfriend and I caught up on homework. But since we were able to do this, we had more time this weekend to do some fun things! There were a bunch of sporting events for me to take pictures at this weekend. I took pictures at the football game on Saturday and the tennis match Sunday morning. The football team played Mount Union, which is usually very good at football. We ended up losing the game, but I still got some really cool pictures for the website! Saturday night, my roommate and I finally got to finish an art project that we've been planning since probably the start of the semester! We saw the idea on Tik Tok to put plaster or spackle all over a canvas and take a tool that would make a kind of like ribbed pattern. We mostly made arches or half circles with the tool. We had to wait for that to dry overnight, but we planned on painting the patterns to make them pop out even mo

Fall Break Update

Bloggers, this past weekend was a long one! ONU had their fall break this weekend and I was able to go home for a few days. I went almost everywhere I could think of over break.  Of course, I had to hit all of the staple Brookville spots. On Saturday, I spent almost the whole day with my brother's girlfriend, Josie. First, we went to Coffee On Main, the local coffee shop, then we headed to Canal Days in Metamora. Metamora was a stop along the Whitewater Canal, back in the old days, but in today's world, they are more of a tourist location. There are a few permanent shops in the town that primarily sell handmade goods year-round. However, every year on the first weekend of October they have a festival where the shops as well as other vendors who handmake goods and food trucks set up for the long weekend. So many people from near and far travel to Metamora every year to get ahead on their Christmas shopping, or they go just to shop! Josie and I walked around almost all day and ev
