Description
In this episode Stephen and SP are going to boldly go where no podcast-about-podcasting has gone before... discussing the *gasp* CONDENSER MICROPHONE. For this episode we are going to temporarily put aside our solid recommendation that you podcast using a Dynamic Cardiod Microphone to discuss some methods on how those who do use Condenser Microphones can make it the best it can be. We'll share some personal experiences including both successes and failures we've had. In this week's Better Podcasting Download we discuss International Podcast Day and how you can celebrate. Finally, we take listener feedback in this week's Better Podback. Do you have something to say about the art of hobby podcasting? Do you want to chime in on an episode of Better Podcasting?
