Time to get some schooling on RSS on the Mac! Steve Harris, founder of Reinvented Software, has been at it since the beginning of podcasting. Whether you're blogging or just want to serve a feed from files on your website, Feeder has you covered.
Steve worked at EDS for 9 years prior to jumping into Cocoa full-time
and hasn't looked back. He's a great example for others seeking to make a living working for the Mac market (yes, those iMac switchers are your boss and could hold the keys to your freedom). He's also one of the many OS X notebook app developers with some new ideas for updating his first Cocoa app, KIT.

I just have to say - I don't know what you did or even if you did anything, but the sound quality on this one is just great. It's much nicer than during Chris Forsythe's interview.

It was done with Skype because AIM was playing up.
I used an external mic (Griffin Lapel Mic) which might have helped. I can't remember the name of the software used to record the audio, but it integrated right into Skype - pretty cool.

The sound quality itself is great, but the balance is really messed up. Blake's voice is only coming through the left headphone. This is so uncomfortable that I've skipped to the next episode, which has an annoying hiss but at least doesn't "tickle my ears" like this one.
Great to see some updates! I hope the sound issues get ironed out eventually. I know it must be a real hassle to get everything right at once.
If there's any chance of remastering this episode with Blake's voice on both channels, I think it would be close to perfect.

Couldn't listen because of the balance. Usually I can take it listening via my speakers rather than iPod headphones, but it was way too bad for that even.
