Create: My Podcast: Script
Outline
- Intro
- The influence of friends
- Mongolia's friend circles
- My friends
-Conclusion
Script draft
Hi my name is Enkh-Erdene Bayarsaikhan and I am a 15-year-old girl from Mongolia. My friends and family mostly call me Enkhi or Enkhule. I have an awesome life and I can’t complain. I am from a wealthy family. I have a lot of so called friends but I only have a few good friends that I can depend on. I think the people around you have a very big influence on your life, especially for teenagers. Teenagers are open to a lot of things and they can get into things easily. Your friends affect those mistakes that you do and it could stick with you for your whole life.
For me, I think the friends I make now will be very useful to me in my future life. When school starts, the friends that I have made over the summer and winter break fade because I have no time to talk or meet them. Most of my close friends go to my school so we stay close. Those people are people I can count on to be there for me when I need them. The distant and not so close friends, they are just people to say that are friends but are not really. We hang out sometimes just for fun. I think it is necessary to have many distant friends because if you need them for something because they have connections or just to be more popular, not popular like popular but to just have many friends and seem like the friendly type. I lived 2 years of my beginning teenage life in America and it was very different from how it is in Mongolia. I had a few friends but we were not that close because I would just never open up to people because I missed my friends back in Mongolia. If I had gotten used to the life in California and made really good friends, I think our family would have stayed. That is how much a big part of my life friends are. I also think it would have been fun to be friends with more people and tried a little bit harder. In Mongolia, rumors spread really quickly. Even if they don’t know you, they talk about you. Whatever you did, in some way was an effect of your friend or friends. Maybe they convinced you to do the thing you did or maybe they even started the rumor. Friends are supposed to help and encourage. Those kinds of friends are just not some one you can depend on. My friends are smart, crazy, loving, caring, spontaneous, open and dependable. I know they will stick with me for my life and I love them. I have known them for most of my life and I appreciate that. Its not often when you have best friends you’ve known since you were a little youngster. What I’m trying to say is that friends are a very big part of a teenager’s life. They share their minds and they can change their friend’s minds too. And that teen with the changed mind can do something good or bad and that will have a big affect on their lives.

Design: My Podcast
For my final podcast there can be many topics that I can talk about, but it should be about the adolescent life. For me there can be a lot of topics to talk about in the podcast and I can go on about my life for hours but of course there has to be restriction. Some ideas for topics are:
• Friends
• Fashion
• Boys
• A typical day
• Party
• Family
Intended audience: are teenagers, preteens and parents. Teenagers are intended because they can hear about other teenagers that are the same as them or have the same problems as them. For preteens, it is good for them to listen to my podcast because they can get a picture of how teenage life will be like. Not all preteens will have the same life, but they can get an idea or just see how some teens’ life is like. My podcast will probably be more leaning to the rich life side of Mongolia so the rich preteens can listen to it. For parents, they can listen to get advice or ideas of how other kids are like in Mongolia and maybe change their view or maybe change their way they parent their teenager.
To record and publish: I will record my podcast on my phone because it has a very good quality microphone and put it on my computer. After I have edited it and fixed it I will put it on a website called podcastalley.com. There are many sites for podcasts, but I feel that the most easy and comfortable to use.
Outlines:
Friends
• In Mongolia a lot of teenagers smoke and drink.
• In my circle, they all smoke
• I personally have lots of friends
• My circle of friends are close and wont hurt or betray me
• I have long distance friends
• Have not so close friends
• People who pretend to be friends
• There are a few schools that know each other
• Everyone knows each other
A typical day
• Wake up go to school
• Go out or go home after school
• When I go out, I hang our with my friends and meet my not so close friends
• I come home around 6 and do my homework
• When I go home, I straight away do my homework
• Watch a movie or go chat online
• Go to sleep
• In summer break it is much more interesting because I do different things everyday
Family
• Have no money
• My parents always fight
• My dad drinks
• I have a little sister
• We never want night to come because the fighting and drinking could star
• I don’t know my grandparents
Design specifications
1. Loud and clear
2. Music in background
3. What I’m talking about makes sense
4. It will be about 10-15 minutes long
5. Shows emotion
My pick:
Friends… I picked friends because “friends” is an important part of my life. Friends really influence the person I am becoming. You can learn a lot from friends because there can be good friends and bad friends.
