Show 298 – The Disaster That Is 2020

Listen here or use the player on the right, though I’d love you to subscribe !

Well, doesn’t time fly when you have other things on your mind? Then throw in a running accident at the start of the year just as you’re thinking about getting back into the podcast fray, and you can kiss goodbye to another few months of your life. And then there’s Covid-19 and the lockdown. 2020 – the year that just keeps on giving and taking away. Still, here I am – dipping my toes back into the podcasting waters (and finding out just how little I could remember about how to do it). And with that, an apology for the vocal quality – when I recorded the “TFL number…” vocal, my setup was my podcasting mic via my audio interface into my new iPad Pro. However, when I recorded the main chat vocal a short time later, it appears that the internal iPad mics were used (although I was still hearing the output on my headphones via the interface as I recorded so it all sounded fine). I’ve tried to clean it up and EQ/ compress it to make it sound better – but there’s an obvious change to the usual quality. I hope it doesn’t spoil things too much for you. This was just a trial show to try and get me back into the swing of things, so hopefully I’ll get it right once I’m back in the groove!.

    Grant sorry to hear about your broken collar bone. Hope you are pretty much healed up by now.
