Both our ideas for audio products are podcasts, meaning they are pre-recorded so if any profanity or any other offensive content is used we can edit that out either by cutting it completely out or putting a beep. Though we would check beforehand with the cast that they make sure not to use any of the above legal issues in pre-production meetings held here at UTC Sheffield or Sheffield Live!
Also because it is a podcast time the time of broadcast is not necessarily an issue. The content would be suitable for all ages ,(though not necessarily to everybody's liking due to the subject of broadcast), so there would be no need to release it at a certain time, after the watershed for example.
The intended target audience for The Daily Life of a UTC Student falls under the teenage category in terms of age range; this would mean that there would be a huge range in what is suitable and not suitable to the audience though we would make sure since this is also a informative podcast that we would keep the podcast suitable towards the younger half.
For Quizzicle our audience is intended to be a lot older so we would cater towards the older half of the audience rather than the younger; this the older half would take up the majority of the audience.
