The McElroy boys used to have absolute poo poo sound quality, but pretty quickly after moving to Max Fun got their poo poo together. Like, I think one of them used to use a chat microphone headset.

The bad skype quality ups the shittiness of that ad like three times over. It just seems wicked unprofessional. All I can imagine is them sitting alone in their rooms, waiting for the skype delay before speaking as the badly delivered joke bounces off the walls in a tacky low rent echo.

Do not apologize, poo poo audio quality and lovely mics can ruin a perfectly good podcast. Example: The F Plus

The McElroys, like any good podcaster should, record their individual audio tracks locally.





Yea I don't know if they ever actually did a proper answer for it but just going on what they've said about recording on episodes it seems they do the smart thing of all of them recording their own track and then sending them to one (I think Griffin?) to edit. That's why they've had a couple episodes that were all 'yea Travis' track got hosed up here, I fixed it as best I could, sorry'.

While somehow Lemon still sounds like he's recording from a tin can, at least they record locally. There was a philosophy podcast that focused on marginalized issues in philosophy that was super interesting, but they recorded skype audio that was so bad, one episode was literally unable to be comprehended because their connection was bad and their guest kept cutting out. Any person that listens to podcasts that heard that wouldn't have released it. At least The F-Plus is comprehensible.

It's like a rainbow of mic quality, with some readers clearly shelling out for real mics and others seem to be recording underwater from a webcam mic on a laptop from the late 90's.

The thing that happened at the end of The Adventure Zone this week really struck me. Griffin has managed to make a threat that is so monumental in scale that one can't even begin to imagine a way to defeat it, while at the same time being concrete enough that it's not impossible to grasp the severity of it. Even the Grand Relics didn't accomplish this; They were always only just out of reach, and their power was so great that it made for a somewhat abstract threat. Frankly, I'm not sure how they're going to take care of this big honkin' worm without using a Grand Relic.

It also fits with the witch's prediction saying the cause is in the mine but you can't defeat it now.
