Not Podfading - Updated Future Topics To Be Released

I am still working on post production.  I am managing to keep up with recording content and doing the show prep, but I'm have a heck of time getting post production done.

Sorry for the delay.  I am not podfading ... I'm just time challenged right now. I have to agree with Dave Slusher ... the negative vibe from this new word is non-productive.

Thanks for the support!

Today we have a very special segment I am calling "Report from the Bleeding Edge" and it is a short interview with a member from my church who just got back from a mission trip to Ethiopia with Global Missions Fellowship. 

At the end of the interview I do a share a tip that podcasters might get something out of about the Marantz 660, interview microphone control, and BIAS SoundSoap.
