Yeah if you can all figure out local recording and some way of sharing the files then since you're editing anyway then it's a real improvement (so I have heard).

Posting my own tweets, but I think the end part of this vid is like, the absolute fundamental explanation of what British chips are.

This guy puts so much energy into describing the shittiest kind of chips.

"OK we're going to fry these potatoes now but for some loving reason you don't want the end product to be greasy or crunchy in any way and it's basically like eating a bunch of boiled potatoes with a weird skin on, because we hate things which are fun to eat"

Also I reject any world where you can't put at least 2 of those chip toppers on at the same time.

Also cheesy chips always sound nice and always end up being poo poo so they can safely go. Chips and gravy and chips and curry sauce are both abominations, which leaves chips and peas as the only sensible choice.

Alright so we have a volunteer for editing. If someone has any hot tips on how to record a conference call, I'll be happy to see if I can set something up with the gear i have (zoom 4 and basic mixing desk), but if someone else has a better idea let us know!

https://www.vb-audio.com/

I forget which app from that site is the right one, there's some overlap but basically you have virtual audio cables where the playback device is marked as "input", you set it as the speaker for your audio source, then you have a recording device as an "output" this is what you have your software use as a mic/line input. If that's confusing it's because it loving well is and they flipped input and output round but it makes sense from the devs viewpoint and once you get it working. Then you go to try and set it up again later and forget how it all works because they have the input as an output and the output as an input and which loving one is the recording device and which is the playback again?

Also don't mix bitrates, it REALLY doesn't like that, when I tried recording from discord into audacity using this it broke my Zoom G5's ASIO drivers that weren't even running at the time.

Get everyone involved to download Audacity, and then send you the completed wav when finished, you line them all up and work out what adjustments need made to each track.
Everyone should have headphones though, otherwise difficulty increases massively.

Also get each person to spend at least 20 quid on a proper stand alone desk or stand-mounted mic.

Even something like this is gonna be miles ahead of a typical headset mic for sound quality:

I see there is a discussion about what to put on chips. this means it is mandatory for someone from Edinburgh to pipe up about Edinburgh chippy sauce and for everyone else to say how crap and/or disgusting it is and for the Edinburgh person to refuse to countenance any downtalking of the Great Somewhat Edible Condiment until the entire conversation is united around what twats people from Edinburgh are in various ways and forcing the interloper out by throwing things at them until they somehow manage to gently caress off back to england and scotland simultaneously as is demanded of them by various quarters

i volunteer as tribute. salt and sauce is great

Salt and sauce is one of the things I miss most about Edinburgh. I've tried to replicate it by mixing 50/50 HP and white vinegar. Comes close but not close enough. I'm sure gravy/curry/cheese is fine but proper chippy sauce is spot on.

90% of chippies just chuck a handful of cheese on top of the chips so it doesn't melt properly but just kind of congeals a bit. The secret to a godly cheesy chips is layering - if there isn't at least one layer of cheese in the middle of the chips then they can :getout:

"That must weigh heavily on your soul. Let me purge it for you."
Excited at the prospect of a UKMT podcast, even with the reputation of goon projects.

I would suggest as an early topic, or perhaps as a way to get to know everyone; "the tweet that got me blocked by Frances Weetman." Antagonising her will definitely lead to free advertising.

Literally never seen mushy peas and chips without fish. The other three are all great, although bagged grated cheese on chips tends to be pretty bad, a nacho cheese sauce or grated and then grilled cheese is best. Positive is superb, gravy and cheese together us good enough. It's a precious thing to find the chippy/Chinese that combines the right sort of chip and curry sauce.

also remember the entire point of clappers in movies was to help sync the audio: something to consider when beginning local recordings as it helps the editor deal with 3-4 people who probably didn't all press record exactly 4 seconds before the beginning of the main audio for the podcast/discussion
