Structure and Citations

This is roughly the structure of my podcast on the disappearance of the honeybees. It is very similar to the All Things Considered structure, however, the spike at the end of the trough of research indicates a call to action, in which my partner and I will offer suggestions as to what listeners can do to help save the bees. The opening straight lines indicates an introduction, which includes a clip from an episode of Doctor Who called "The Stolen Earth," in which Donna and the Doctor discuss the case of the disappearing bees. It is mirrored at the end by another straight line for the conclusion and another clip from Doctor Who. The middle trough represents all of the information about the disappearance of the honeybees and what that means for the future of our world. It's a fairly straight forward structure for a very complex topic, which I think will help make it easier for a wider range of listeners to understand.

I think most of the podcast episodes on Everyday Einstein follow a similar format, or one that closely resembles the structure of All Things Considered, with a trough of information bordered by an introduction and a conclusion, often in a narrative format.

Finally, I counted 10 citations in the audio version of the podcast and 24 citations written in the podcast transcript, including links to videos and music.
