And...the dogs decide to avoid the recording due to the talk of colonic irrigation and a vet visit coming up (you know: because of temperature taking and
gland expression and stuff...)

The Big Board
I enjoy listening to nice gentlemen who live down inside a well, but I'd appreciate it if you would apply just a little audio magic to make sound as if he was no longer in such an unfortunate position.
ReplyDeletePerhaps Mr. Lee needs some rope and tackle.
Love, anyway,

As Nick Lee sat down, an old, covered well head broke open under him and he fell a few yards into a shallow abyss. Being the consummate professional Nick Lee is, he insisted on continuing the interview while help was summoned. By the time the emergency response squad arrived, we were well into the Lightning Round and it was quite too late to re-record the interview.
ReplyDeleteWe apologize for the inconvenience and offense to your ears and will hence forth give microphone technique training to all potential speaking guests. But why didn't you complain about the mime's audio?!
On a serious not, however: thank you for the feedback, we are yet young in this and will get better.
Shoot: I just realized I wrote "serious not" instead of "serious note". Sorry!
