Podcasting Up An Octave

In this episode I talk about my podcasting must-haves from microphones to hosting services. Whether you’re still thinking about starting a podcast or are ready to elevate your existing show this episode will help you make the most out of your budget to sound your best and save you from the headaches of gear that doesn’t serve you.

I talk about when to use a condenser microphone vs. when a dynamic mic will serve your needs, my ride or die, baby-proof headphones, interfaces, and editing software.
