Love your podcast, a much needed service.

Suggestion: interview segments with Bitcoin luminaries and some of the more bizarre and controversial characters on this forum (e.g. Dank).

Don't mind me.
If you still have the fuzzies, Levelator (http://www.conversationsnetwork.org/levelator/) is incredible with white noise cleanup. And a opening theme wouldn't hurt, as that's the Podcast thing to do.

To contribute bandwidth, I am running a bittorrent tracker and seed for EP005.
http://tril.tunes.org/torrent/coinbase-EP005.mp3.torrent

I'm willing to do this for future shows (or the past ones if someone asks). If you want to link my torrents on the agoristradio site, PM me and we can come up with a better DNS name.

Hi thanks apeterson, for me that just downloads a .run file when I click it in chrome. It DOES work when I add it to google reader. I am hassling Hiro to get a proper RSS feed set up.

that RSS is all agorist radio shows, hiro and I are working on providing a specific one for coinbase.

terrytibbs, that's a good point, we will make sure we are both using our local recordings next episode.

You can do the podcast live with the crappy VOIP quality, but make sure to also record using software such as Audacity, and send those recordings to the person in charge of mixing.

Needs an RSS feed so I can put it in my catcher.

Also, what mics are you using?

glad you guys liked it. sorry bout audio. my mic is too sensitive (picking up ambient PC fan noise) and hiro's clips when he gets excited. plus we record over VOIP over shitty US telecom wires.

if anyone happens to have audio engineering wizardry solutions to improve audio in post, i opened a Reddit thread asking for help: http://www.reddit.com/r/audioengineering/comments/xhlwr/im_editing_a_podcast_one_speaker_has_occasional/

feel free to suggest topics for us to cover next week!

very nice!

interesting topics, good information. great podcast for the bitcoin nerd Smiley

a little feedback:
your microphone seems a bit overdriven try adjusting the incoming volume a bit, and use a audio leveling later.
the pacing of information was almost too high from time to time.
