Episode One: Three is a Magic Number (Download this episode) In this episode: our recording setup and just how much trouble it is to use three microphones in Garage Band That customizing your software may not be a good thing (we’re looking at you, FireFox) What browsing the web was like in 1995 and how awesome Microsoft Plus! was Jason Johnson’s search for the ideal ear buds to use with his iPhone Kids music and what else you can find on our iPhones and we lay out the vision for the podcast Some links to a few of the items discussed during this episode: We used a Blue Snowball, an MXL 990 & PreSonus Inspire 1394, and an M-Audio Producer USB to record into Garage Band. Microsoft Plus! and the IBM PS/Note, which used Lynx or Telix (Not Planet Telex) or some other browser we couldn’t remember. Jason Johnson’s Klipsch in-ear headphones and Jason Coleman’s off brand headphones. Trey is happy with the Apple ear buds. Though we don’t bother cleaning them, Lifehacker encourages you to do so. You can learn more about Dan Benjamin (The Ruby Show) and Leo Laporte’s (TWiT) podcasts. They seem to know what they’re doing. “Three is a Magic Number” by Bob Dorough from Schoolhouse Rocks We spend a lot of time watching TED talks and Morning Becomes Eclectic
