Hey there –

I am legit going to try to make these pops 🙂 Thanks. I liked your read and would suggest that you slow down just a tad to make it more conversational. I would also look to make more conversational sounding pauses. For example, after the intro question, there is no pause; it sounds like you go straight into the following sentence. There is also an unnatural sounding pause between “recipe” and “made”. And then you go straight from “cookies” into “these” where a pause may be a bit more conversational. I liked your tone and levity and thought the intro and closing were strong. FWIW I’ve been told to pretend that I’m talking to an old friend – and I even start my recordings with, “Well you know (name of person)” before I start to tape and then delete that initial part out of the recording.
