Christmas Surprise

Twas a balmy Christmas Day and there was a special present under the tree for my family this year…

My web provider only gives me 1GB of space with the plan I’m on and I don’t really want to spend extra at the moment so for the time being I’m re-uploading all the old shows at 128kbps instead of 160kbps. Before I uploaded this show I only had 25 megs left so hopefully this will keep me going a bit longer before I need to find alternate hosting possibilities.

The Calm Before The Storm

I've tried to keep the music in this episode a bit more low key and also used a couple things people have suggested to get the overall sound better (thanks DaHonay for the Levellator idea). I compressed the whole show once I'd pieced it together too to try and get things at a constant level. One segment that I recorded didn't save on my iRiver for some reason (the drive home from the gym) so if you're confused at some point that will be one reason why. Big thanks to everyone who's taken the time to let me know that they're enjoying these - it's good to know that I'm not the only one getting a kick out of it.
