Special guests: An angry swarm of bees, wasps, and mosquitos.
Podcasting from Jay's Shave Ice, Timonium, MD.
Holy crap, this is the worst sounding podcast that we've not only produced, but ever heard. There was a power-supply grounding issue with the laptop that we recorded on, which resulted in a loud buzzzzz through the whole recording. We'd pitch it and start from scratch, except we love ourselves too much to do that.
HUGE APOLOGIES. We know that even a couple of minutes in, you'll find this pretty much unbearable to listen to. Oh well. Show us how much you care and just endure the aural nightmare.
Show highlights and discussion topics:
- News bits ("Old Timers' Barista Competition, etc.)
- Special surprise treat for Jay
- "What's Chris Tacy Thinking About Today?"
- Mailbag!
TWO DIFFERENT FILES, but the same show... your choice (the AAC version sounds better and includes "bookmarking" for iTunes and iPods: if you stop midway, you can come back to where you left off) both: 1 hour 49 minutes and 00 seconds, 24 kbps bitrate, 32 kHz (12 kHz for MP3) sample rate... it already sounds like poop, so let's cut the file size down, eh?
MP3 format, 18.8 MB,
AAC format, 20 MB

Not that I disagree, but at least have the balls to use your name when you say things like this.
ReplyDeleteI dropped the 600, 1K & 3K controls in the WinAmp equalizer and it was much more listenable.
ReplyDeleteLoved the show. Once I got used to the static, the information was compeling as usual. I really have gained much "food for thought" from your casts...and lots of laughs. It is very humbling to run a business....I liked hearing your takes on that.
ReplyDeleteRegarding the "...too much sex got comments.." - IMHO podcasts are like a blog.... if you don't like it, don't listen. The independent thought of the podcaster has zero constituent responsibility - it is free speech. Don't feel that you have to change, alter, obey, conform to others. Leave that to a radio station or a forum :)

Yeah... thanks again for putting up with the horrible static stuff. Sounds like shit indeed (no need for asterisks here... they're more offensive than the real word).
Paula... you rock. I'll catch you a delicious bass any day.
Okay, ...
