This Crazy Ride

You did not read that wrong! I explain what "Naked Grilled Cheese Day" is and what it means to me. This is my first recording in a while and I am super excited to sit in the studio to record a short hello and an update. So, Hello! Hope you enjoy this little recording and have a great day.

The other day, I posted a really awful piece of audio.. I was feeling really down and for whatever reason, I decided to record myself and post it as a podcast. Not a great idea, but I am going to leave it where it is. 

It helped to me reflect on my vision - for this podcast. Positivity first.

When I started this podcast, I was inspired… I had some pretty great focus, huge ideas, some well-laid plans, and one massively influential person in my life who was the catalyst behind the whole thing. That person is now gone, for whatever reason - I think, mostly because I lost the fire for a time but to be fair to myself - fire needs to be stoked occasionally and not completely abandoned to fizzle out slowly! I joke, but maybe it IS time to laugh about it for a change.

Be kind to one another!

I have a mostly quiet home tonight and felt like sampling a new workflow with new equipment & trying to create a podcast until I lost it a little. 

I am still here, 6 months late to start some projects due to a multitude of excuses. Thanks for coming by. Hopefully next time I will not be such a wreck and actually have something to say. 

Just a fun little chat with my Boy. Once again playing with different microphones and settings.

Happy 2021 to everyone!

Sorry about the quick F Bomb at the beginning! I tried to edit it out in Anchor before posting... still there.

Opinions and feedback wanted. Please have a listen to 1 or 2 of my podcasts before listening to this one. I have made a trade for some pretty high end microphones and I am hoping to delete the Rode PodMic and the boom arm that always has to be within 5 inches of my mouth for consistent sound. I have mounted a pair of AT4073A microphones above my main LED panel and they are pointed at my forehead. Listen with headphones please and let me know if the sound quality is good enough to use for my podcast. Thanks so much. 

I have been getting some feedback in the last little while and I love to hear it, so keep the comments coming - I appreciate it.

The theme of this episode is - new studios.

A short recording from my new studio where I touch on where I have been, what I have been listening to... or mostly not listening to and the direction of this podcast going forward.

This is a REBOOT of this podcast - I am extremely excited to have a chance to produce more content and plan to create often! Thanks for listening!

We are talking about being stuck at home....  crazy times for kids and adults alike. Just another silly conversation!

Coronavirus fears, cancellations and what life might look like going forward into the future.

Also, just a lot of nonsense as we have a conversation about the past weeks goings on.

I am pretty wheezy in this episode... I just had a shot of my inhaler as I have been a little under the weather. There is an update about some equipment enhancements, and future episode ideas including a possible regular remote guest spot with Baud, who is a dear friend living in Mexico. Also, a quick recap about my debut episode "Inaugural Snack", featuring a hilarious review left on Apple Podcasts. PS, still no correct guesses on the snack from Episode 01 so get those emailed to me! Things get a little weird for me in this episode as I am wearing headphones and I can hear my own voice as I monitor the recording levels - I think this really messed with my head as I became very aware of my own voice (which I hate!!) and faded off into LaLa land more than once - so, apologies for that!

There is not a lot to say about this episode, as it features only myself and my short "Inaugural Snack" bit. I keep this episode brief as I preview one of my inexpensive USB microphones in the very loud & temporary makeshift studio which is in the busiest part of our home - the "Breezeway". Have a listen, and see if you can guess my snack... I will send the first successful listener a bag of these delicious treats. 

Go easy, this is my first session for this new Podcast - I promise that there will be future episodes with much more content so stay tuned!
