This is a podcast about the work of photographer Nic Bishop and his fascination with spiders. I chose it because there was no extraneous information, just the basic facts about spiders. I also chose it because it is of an elementary level, although if you are creeped out by spiders I would not suggest it!

I did enjoy this podcast, and found it very informative. I liked that there were a few short pauses after rhetorical questions to allow for the viewer to perhaps create his/her own hypothesis. However, I do not like that the facts about spiders are mixed in with the facts about the author. It makes the lesson not fully about spiders, but not fully about Nick Bishop either. It was also good that there was no background music, and the pictures were very informative and corresponded with the information.
