In this final episode of the Erin & Andrew saga on "Shenanigans On Sheridan" Phill, Chris and Kayla listen to all the Shenanigans that happened at the family farm over the 4th of July, 2019. This episode has everything that makes a podcast successful: people talking and other people talking over them. I have to confess that I'm not too happy with how I recorded this trilogy of episodes. These were the first with more than three people and there are many things wrong with the recordings. First of all I used two microphones that have a lot of handling noise, also, I didn't have enough headsets so some people couldn't hear when they were breathing directly into the microphone or if the microphone was too far away from their mouths. Here's another thing I fucked up, there are 5 mics in play and we are in an untreated room. That means that I don't have any sound absorbing material on the walls, so with 5 mics in play you can really hear the liveliness of the room and I suppose I could have tried to put a gate on each track or manually edited it so that mics are only open when it's "owner" is making noise, but we are the self-proclaimed "Laziest Podcast on the Planet" and I would never do anything that could possibly jeopardize that. What a sad day it'll be when we have to say that we are "The Second Laziest Podcast on the Planet"! I will make a promise to you, our loyal literate fans that we will continue to do everything in our power to be the "Laziest Podcast on the Planet". Writing these descriptions is a nice cathartic experience for me. I'll just keep admitting all of my short comings here and then I don't have to feel bad about them. Luckily the next session we have planned is just one other person, so we'll have a better sounding podcast for the next couple ones. We are actually extremely excited for the next guest. We have been talking about hanging out for about a year and a half now, so this is history in the making. Also, he is a phenomenal "Shenanigist". I've worked with him for about 5 days in the past week and he keeps giving me little teasers and I'm dying on all of them, but we have a very similar comedic style, so we'll see if it translates. I'm excited. I should probably stop saying "I" and make it a "We" so it seems like this podcast has a united front, but Chris will never read this, so I can just keep shitting on him. He rarely listens to this podcast, but he has heard his Boston episode about 20 times. That would normally sound like a hyperbole, but I can assure it is not. That episode is almost 2 hours, which means he has almost spent an entire work week listening to the same episode. Some people just really like the sound of their own voice. I don't think that is the case here, but you know. Okay, that was a low blow, but I really respect him for being able to make fun of himself. It takes a lot of guts to say, "This is me and I will not apologize", and Chris lives by that saying. In the year and a half we have lived together he has only apologized to me once, which means he is 1 for 547.5, which means he is batting .001. If that isn't an unapologetic way to live, then I don't know what is. Well I've rambled long enough so I'll end it her-
