2016-06-10 (F) Weekly Summary

Last Saturday there was no summary, instead there was the publication of a podcast. I’m very proud of this podcast, of which I’m a co-host and the editor. If you haven’t already listened please head over to the Twin Cities+ page and listen. I am an executive board member at Twin Cities+ and my co-host, Tim Shank, is the president. We’re both augmented with microchips and magnets and we use the first episode to discuss some of the What and Why behind these upgrades. The show is fifteen minutes long and we have a whole list of future shows so we don’t plan to let this become a one-off.

One thing we forgot to mention in the show was that we’re open to emails at 2xCb+Mic@twincitiesplus.org. We’ll be releasing every other week if things go well.

As I mentioned, I am also the editor for this show. Despite the name, there is not a single microphone, Tim and I record from the comfort of our own homes, which happen to be miles apart. As the editor I’ve insisted on a couple recording practices such as recording high quality audio on our own side rather than trying to cobble the audio out of a mutually recorded Teamspeak3 recording. We tried this but it sounded pretty choppy. Since the streams are recorded separately they have to be recombined and edited together. This is no small amount of work and it is time consuming. People who have listened said they thought the conversation flowed smoothly, for amateurs. This was mostly due to editing because the raw audio is three times longer and contains lots of bad takes and the word “umm” every couple of seconds. This is painstakingly edited out to make a fluid sounding show.

We’ve recorded five shows and they’re in the hopper to be published every other Saturday. The woodeness Tim and I both have fades away as we get more experience on the mic. All my experience with recording Charged: DesertIrish was evident to me but talking with another person, unscripted, is a whole new ball game.

Speaking of Charged: DesertIrish, that audio book continues to grow chapters at a time. The literature hasn’t grown in a month or more but the story is improving. There isn’t much to say about the audio book this week but if you enjoy super powered people and listening to words try it. At this point the audio book version is better than the text on my site but soon, I’ll announce it in the blog, the text version will reflect the audio version verbatim.
