Setting your audio levels properly are just one key to recording good episodes. Showing up to record without the right amount of physical and mental energy can be heard just as clearly as the hiss of an improperly ground wire.

Any question that asks for ‘the best’ will create controversy. But I believe there should be a universal top answer for why 'people' (not necessarily you) actually listen to certain podcasts.
