Please give some comments on my recording.

Topic:
Describe a TV show that you enjoy. (Source)

You should say:
  • What type of show it is
  • How often it is on
  • How popular it is with other people in your country
Explain why you like it.

This is my recording:
 
Thanks for taking on the suggestion of recording your voice. That give us much more to go on than the written version you've been posting.
You speak in an even, measured tone and at a sensible speed. Your enunciation and pronunciation are good, with the exception of three words:

It's The Big Bang Theory, not The Big Band Theory. I seem to recall you made the same error in a written piece once.
Sheldon Cooper's first name wasn't 100% clear. If I didn't watch the show, I probably wouldn't have been able to work out his name.
Work on your enunciation of "forums". I thought you said "forms" or "farms".

I've only listened to it once but I would say you did a pretty good job, without too much hesitation.
 
I've only listened once. I like your voice. You have a good pace/rhythm/tone. (Pick one. 😊)

I moved it to my Messenger account so I could listen to it. (I never can do that here.)

Do you know that Messenger has a voice feature? If we were on Messenger together you could send me something any time you wanted to and get my opinion.

I'm going back to bed now to try get some more sleep. (I will probably fail.)

Maybe Skype?
 
I don't do Skype. 🫤

I listened to it again. Your pronunciation is quite good, but I did have trouble understanding some things.

You speak clearly and distinctly.
👍

"Forums" does sound a little like "farms".

Practice produces improvement.

You did well!

I'll probably listen to it again to catch what I missed.
