Comfort Food Thursday: Boz Scaggs, Silk Degrees
We’re all going through a lot of things right now. People have turned to crafts, exercise, and media to help them get through this emotionally taxing time. For some reason, in the past week, I’ve turned to listening to Boz Scaggs’ 1976 album, Silk Degrees. It’s a seminal album in his career, one that gaveContinue reading “Comfort Food Thursday: Boz Scaggs, Silk Degrees“

Weekend Fun with Remote Recording!
Normally, we record our episodes in person. Just like how I discussed in our post about editing our episodes, this gives our episodes a conversational tone. It can really draw listeners in, and make them feel like they’re having a discussion with their best friends! For most of our guests, we also have them inContinue reading “Weekend Fun with Remote Recording!”
Editing a Podcast
Editing a podcast. What does it take? Well, it takes a little bit of gumption, some elbow grease, and a good ear. We record and edit our podcast in Reaper. It’s an awesome Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) that offers a lot of customization options, for music producers and podcasters alike. While recording, we use aContinue reading “Editing a Podcast”
Episode 27: College Basketball
Well, I don’t think Adam or I would have thought the entire NCAA Tournament would be canceled when we recorded our episode discussing College Basketball and March Madness. The NCAA governing board, or whoever decides things like that, definitely made the right decision. No one knows what the Coronavirus pandemic will bring, and it’s bestContinue reading “Episode 27: College Basketball”
Passion Fruits: Behind the Podcast

We’re gonna try this out!
Often after we’ve recorded an episode, I’ve later thought of stuff or experiences that I wish I had talked about. So, I’m thinking we may use this space to discuss things we missed while recording an episode. Hopefully that will be interesting… We’ll see! Keep an eye out on this space! – Daniel
Episode 25.5 – Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
Adam and I are both huge Star Wars fans. I’ve enjoyed the sequel trilogy that Disney has released, but was disappointed by The Rise of Skywalker. Not only did the story not make much sense, but the pacing was off and it didn’t feel like a satisfying conclusion to the trilogy. One thing we didn’tContinue reading “Episode 25.5 – Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker”
