Abstract The Sweet Roll is a podcast centered around discussion of the latest video and tabletop games. It includes news briefs, game reviews, and interviews with industry professionals and gaming celebrities. The target audience is men and women aged 14-35 who play virtual and tabletop games as a hobby. This audience values quality production, objective news writing, and a host with a sense of humor.

This thesis discusses the process of creating a podcast from the production standpoint. When an audience listens to a podcast, they are knowingly consuming the information that is presented by the host(s). They are also unknowingly consuming auditory information engineered by the podcast's producer. The producer chooses how content is presented and how audio gets the message across. This includes the equipment that provides the foundation for a recording, the very deliberate delivery of a message, and the process of post-producing a clean and listenable show.

Another thesis written by Kenneth L. Wallace will explore the development of content for the podcast and the process of developing review criteria for video games.
