Does Tom smell?
Does Tom smell?
I was listening to the latest cast again today and I noticed something. I went back to old episodes and it was there too. I each episode it sounds like Tom is sitting across the room from you guys, at the end of a long table or something. My only conclusion was that either Tom smells really bad and you guys don't want to sit near him, or Tom is so awesome that he needs extra space for his greatness. Which it is I can't figure out, but maybe one of you guys can help and enlighten me as to why he sounds so far away.
Well, he does in fact smell bad, but that isn't the issue. The issue is that he has a tendency to start by the microphone and then as the podcast goes on, he starts to lean back, back, back until he sounds like he is in another room.
Dave and I have talked about this, and we are going to attempt to keep on top of it for the next episode. Anytime Tom tries the lay back approach we are going to signal for him to get closer to the Mic. Hopefully this will resolve the issue as it annoys me as well when I am editing each cast.
So hopefully it won't be in the next episode... sorry that we haven't corrected it sooner.

Heh, this topic is funny. I do tend to lean back. I think this is because in the early episodes I was talking too loud. When I get excited about the topic I start talking louder and louder until I'm practically shouting, so to compensate I lean back from the mic. I guess I'm leaning back too much now. Anyway, no I'm not at the other end of the room, we have 1 mic per 2 people so I am usually sitting right next to Dave.
