Week 7 - Argument & Debate

When it comes to the idea of what an argument is, people tend to think negatively of it. They see it as a thing that provides negativity and that can be true in some cases, however it is simply a thing where one disagrees and the other tries to prove their opposing point, an explanation or a justification. I have seen many arguments, especially online. It has proven itself to be a place where it invites people to justify their opposing views of whatever is being said/seen. I have seen it on social media apps such as TikTok, Twitter, Reddit, YouTube comments sections, and so many more. I have chosen a Reddit post that I saw the other day and thought would be a good idea to analyze here.  Post's Full URL :  https://www.reddit.com/r/changemyview/comments/1hkbazs/cmv_tiktok_is_terrible_for_gen_z/  Why did I choose this online argument for your assignment?  This was a post I saw recently and I thought the posts as well as replies consisted of what is relevant in our soci...

Week 6 - Nintendo's Business

Nintendo has been a pretty popular and influential company for many decades now. It has been the home for many beloved childhood consoles, games, and beloved brands such as Pokémon. It was founded in 1889 by Fusajiro Yamauchi in Japan .

On their social media pages they also do provide a good job communicating as well. Once you click on one of their social media pages such as Instagram, you are immediately greeted with content that they have.  Nintendo's American Instagram page (Ign...

WEEK 5 - Clooless Podcast

I personally have never been into podcasts. There are a number of reasons as to why I never liked them and one of the main reasons is that I am Deaf. I require more visual information than others (lips for me to read and captions). I also have ADHD and podcasts have never been able to hold my attention for more than a minute, however there is this one podcast called Clooless Podcast  that managed to do this. I am going to warn you though that this is not a family friendly podcast and is more of a "we're doing fun shenanigans" podcast. It is a podcast with four men (who are both YouTubers and Twitch streamers) called Puffer, Grizzy, Pezzy, and Droid.  Clooless Podcast's Logo Reflect on your overall listening experience. What did you learn about the importance of delivery in audio podcasts, and how will this influence your approach to creating your own podcast?  I think what I took away from this listening experience is the fact that they are comfortable in sharing expe...
