In the first episode of the Let’s talk now podcast we talked about the recent UFC fight night main event Jared Cannoneir Vs Kelvin Gastelum. The improvements both fighter made and how Cannonier was able to showcase some new skills in his win. Also taking a look at the Raiders Vs Rams preseason game. How the Raiders were able to narrowly edge the Rams in a heated game on game night and during joint practices during the week.
UFC fight night & Raiders preseason Wk2 breakdowns
Hey Ahmed,
To start it off, I really liked how you came prepared and seemed well versed in the topics you were talking about. You also did a great job of blending together your opinions and the factual evidence of the events that occured. Your breakdown of the two fighters along with the scrimmages in football was really detailed, and I felt I would have understood it, even if I didn’t follow the two sports.
Some things I would suggest would be: Making the intro music blend a little bit better with your voice in the beginning, changing the tone of your voice throughout the podcast, and also lowering the closing music.
You can fade in the beginning soundtrack, and maybe emphasize certain things when you speak to make it more dynamic, and also fade out the ending soundtrack.

Sup Ahmed,
I really like how informed you are on this topic. Personally, I don’t know much about UFC but after listening to your segment, I learned about specific fighters and their stats. I also liked the close the door with the sound bit idea you included. Something I would suggest is to have a different tone as the podcast goes on to keep your listeners active in listening. The music also sounds quite piercing so what I would suggest is to just edit the raw mp3 file of the music to then fade into your voice and then fade back for the ending music rather than just use it off the same speaker you recorded your voice on. Sounds great!
Hello Ahmed!
The topics that you spoke about were very interesting! I really enjoyed how knowledgeable you were when speaking about them. Especially the football segment, everything you had to say was detailed and analytical. You may have just been more comfortable in the second half because your voice is less soft and a little bit more confident. Fixing to a consistent tone can really help polish up your podcast and engage listeners. Just like the comments above the music was a bit piercing and I think you can even make the door sound effect louder. Overall, great work!
