The new episode of the Self-help for Stoners podcast is up!
In this foray into the dark, buckle up for new revelations. This time, it’s personal:
Skinny Pigs and Serial Killer Mom
Burnt Toast and Terrorist Bed Bugs
and The Fortune Teller, an excerpt from my book, Sex, Death and Mind Control (for fun and profit.)
What microphone do you use?
For this one I tried Apple’s Yeti, but in the future I’ll probably just use that for interviews. The first three were done with the Nova mic and that gave me a lot less trouble.
Had a lot of tech issues with this one in that one monologue had a lot of dropped bits. I suspect it was a problem with going stereo + compression. It was a real headache since I ended up staying up till 3 a.m. and editing my way out of the problem (mostly.) This pod was originally a bit longer. I’m also going to record in mono from now on and experiment with the Yeti before using it again for a podcast. (Glad I got a deal on it.)
I’d recommend Nova microphones. I got the bottom of the lone Nova for about $156 I think.
