Intro Research

 Pod Save America Podcast, a podcast talking about politics in Malaysia. They started their podcast with an advertisement read by the speaker as a sponsorship, and then a retro music as an intro/jingle and introducing the hosts' name with the music playing in the background as they speak, starting the topic.

You're Dead to Me Podcast. They started with an external sponsor which is not read by the host. Gives an introduction with a jingle in the background or a bed, introducing hosts, and then the topic. The jingle was quick which lets the host get straight into the podcast.

The Always Sunny Podcast. They started their podcast directly into a communications, with no jingle or bed or even an advertisement. This gives an effect of a more relaxed podcast. But having no jingle and bed is usually abstract and boring for the audience. Though it has a transition jingle which transitions the podcast to the advertisement.

Slow Burn Roe V. Wade Podcast. They started the podcast with a warning for the audience that the podcasts contains some contents. The intro contains bed of trumpets, sound effects of people in the 60s (muffled), and a narration. It switches from the narration to the audio from the TV show.

Today, 21 October 2022, We have made our very first draft of our intro inspired from the Michael Myers Theme song for the bed with a bit of glitch effect in the start. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXJIYCtEYAU&ab_channel=K.Arnon. That is the link for the Michael Myers theme song. And here is our first draft of intro.
