In part 1 at about a minute in, Ira Glass discusses the transgression of the story in explaining how one thing leads to another. This is a concept that I have used in my story already when I'm talking about funny memories from camp, and then go into my interview with Sydney about the time I fell in the mud. Something that I plan on revising with this is making it more of a surprise. Rather than me saying "that time I fell in the mud", it might be more effective to have her just go right into the story so the audience doesn't know what to expect.
In part 3 of Glass's series, he talks about taste. This is really relevant to my audio story because starting out I feel like I had a certain idea but as we progressed through workshops and revisions, I realized that it wasn't what I had expected it to be. There were different elements that I kept uncovering that I didn't necessarily love anymore but I knew there were ways in which I could improve. There are a lot of parts of my story that I need to revise and rework now so that my story mirrors my initial vision. It's hard to replicate what your envision in your head into the actual story.
