There's a trick to capturing audio on the road. It's a simple one, but it has repercussions. Let's discuss.
EVO: In case I haven't said it loud enough, putting together episodes in our format takes a lot of time. We're now 10 weeks into our between-seasons break, and I'm racking up multiple hours of audio to log. Oy. Who thought this was a good idea?
SHE: As much as Evo bitches about it, he really does enjoy going through all the audio we record, looking for choice bits to share with you. What drives him mad is when we've just had an amazing experience... and the microphones weren't running. To help with that, he's come up with a Rule:
EVO: So that I'm holding myself accountable, I made that statement back in April. We're getting better, but there's still plenty that goes unrecorded. Which sucks for you. Maybe you should just come travel with us. Yes, that's an option. Cheers from the road!
SHE: Funding for our endless world tour is provided, oddly enough, by postcards.
EVO: Give us five bucks, and we'll send you a postcard from our travels abroad every single month. Get on the list at ShEvo.wtf/postcards.
SHE: And we save a ton of money by housesitting. It's free and beats living in hotels. Want super cool people like us looking after your pets and property while you're traveling? Visit ShEvo.wtf/stayforfree to register, either as a housesitter or a home owner. We do it, and we love it! Thanks for listening to this episode. I’m Sheila Dee.
EVO: And I am Evo Terra. Our theme music is by Kevin MacLeod at incompetech.com. All other sounds, voices, and odd bits you hear were most likely created or captured by us. Visit ShEvo.wtf to get more goodness from us and to see where opportunity will take us next. Thanks for again for listening and tell a friend about us. Now would be good.
New episodes of the The Opportunistic Travelers Podcast are available every Tuesday. Of course, Tuesday can be a very different thing depending on where we are in the world. Cheers!
