PANIC AREA Matthew Austin

I wrote, acted, and edited two short covid Christmas themed audio dramas. There is also solo banter from my describing how I feel about the holidays this year. I made sure not to add any lectures or rants because we could all use a break. Hope everyone has a safe holiday break. 

Just Some good ol' fashioned podcast banter, with even more sound bits to add to the drama. This is part 2 to the last episode, and is dedicated to celebrating friendships! Over a year ago I recorded the first episode of BTW Podcast with a couple of friends of mine, and I am sharing this episode not just because I am overwhelmed with school and work but also because I want to take a break from lecture based content I've put out so far. I have added some familiar Panic Area Elements to the old episode so be on the lookout for some fun sound bits and skits.  Some sounds maybe a little alarming when driving so I highly recommend listening to this at home ( a warning is presented at the beginning of the episode). 

Just some good ol' fashioned podcast banter. This episode is dedicated to celebrating friendships! Over a year ago I recorded the first episode of BTW Podcast with a couple friends of mine, and I am sharing this episode not just because i'm overwhelmed with school work but also because id want to take a break from lectures and post something purely fun. We can call this a sort of Free Period episode, in contrast to the other lecture based content i've put out so far. I have added some familiar Panic Area elements to the old episode so be on the lookout for some fun sound bits and skits. 😅😂

I give a speech going over many bits of information regarding using healthy Communication  knowledge for being safe during the Holiday Season during the Covid-19 pandemic. "Weather" you like it or not this holiday season is going to be different, we must discuss how to be safe when visiting family. I am not an expert but I want to share my experiences so you know that you are not alone and that you can stand up for yourself. 😷✋

No matter your group or age Peer pressure is a major problem especially within the family setting. Be careful. 

If you would like to discuss the content of my lecture my instagram is @panic_area.podcast

The scariest thing about this episode is that I recorded and edited it in a public Coffee bar and I was terrified the entire time! Not just because of the pandemic but because of public embarrassment. 😨😱👻 Also first ever guest appearance from my friends Cayla and Sam as they weigh in with their ideas of ghosts. I also briefly discuss the concept of fear and i constantly apologize for deleting the hour long Halloween special 😅
Happy Halloween 🎃

I attempt to discuss listening habits, nonverbal communication, and the health benefits of being creative, but i sorta got ahead of myself and talked about a multitude of topics; whoops 😅
