Rambling Retard Rampage

This podcast is written and produced by a 15 year old who is a self-confessed sufferer of ADD. I’m not sure if he is being serious in this claim however evidence of this comes through quite clearly in his podcast. RRR is a series of skits that involves El Nacho playing different voices and mixing in sound effects and music to compliment the skits. RRR has very high audio quality and production values. The show I listened to ran for about half an hour. I was very impressed with the use of sound effects and music throughout which were used in an innovative and creative way. In the episode I listened to (Episode 34: Tubbile) I was intrigued with the segment entitled ‘Hotdog Humidifier Skit’. In this skit the host combines sound effects and a catchy bass beat to make a free flowing and interesting dialogue that loosely sounded like a rap song. The voice acting in the various segments was impressive and El Nacho clearly has a creative and performance talent. It is clear that a good deal of effort goes into this podcast to make it original and well produced. At times, though, I was left feeling disorientated and lost as to what was happening at certain points in the show. The segments tended to run together and very rarely were these segments introduced, explained or wrapped up in a logical manner. RRR is clearly aimed at a young audience. While I did not enjoy listening to this podcast I was able to admire its originality and clever production. At the end of the day, though, this podcast needs to look at how it sequences the various parts that make up a single episode so that the overall show is more logical and more easily understood.
