Episode #008 - Greed is good...
Ah crap. You mention somebody just once in your shownotes, and they come over and give you a bitchslap for being a smartass...
Greed is good. In fact greed is very good, because at long last I have got through all seven of these little snippets that have hung around my neck like a millstone. I didn't think anything would take as long as it took to write them. Turns out I was wrong, recording them has been a five month process to the very day. Go back through the archive and check if you don't believe me. 24 September 2007 was the first one...
So at long last, they are recorded, uploaded, published, whatever. All? Maybe not - there is an alternative Lust story that I might put up as a bonus (wait, aren't bonuses supposed to be good?)
I'm still working out the little niggles in the recording. On the playback I'm working through headphones, so everything sounds at a good volume level to me, but I've been told that on the last couple everything between intro and outro is at a very low volume, so if there are problems, please let me know.
As ever, the full text of the story can be found here:

Ever wanted to see where the magic happens? Here's what the recording studio looks like:
Also mentioned in this episode:
Scott Sigler owns my ass and I've pissed him off by taking his name in vain in the last episode - see the comments section for Episode #007.
Please, to ensure my continued existence when the Sigler Ascension hits, subscribe to his podcast and pre-order Nocturnal now! Seriously, why are you even listening to this when you could be listening to Sigler instead. Go, shoo, subscribe!

Ever wanted to see where the magic happens? Here's what the recording studio looks like:
The mixing desk - sound comes in, I screw it up, sound goes out...
Note absence of pop filter, so the "p" sounds are still a little harsh. The USB thingy behind the microphone takes the sound from the desk to my Powerbook. I started off using Apple's Garageband, but I now use Sound Studio 3 by Freeverse.
And this is the full studio. Laptop, mixing desk, microphone, headphones, USB connector, gargoyles at the back of the desk surrounding the coffee plant, and the remains of a very pruned back bonsai. Trust me, this is all essential stuff...
