    In this episode we welcome Josh Miller who is a Sound Engineer/Recording Studio Engineer/Room Design Expert/DJ/Restaurant Owner. We discuss how sound, music, acoustics, and space all work together to create the perfect vibe. We also include the single most important aspect of that vibe... you.

    We talk about how you can implement some techniques in your space to create your perfect vibe, one that allows people to talk, listen, and enjoy the music. And it's not as easy as one may think...

    Idioms. What's the big deal and why are they a part of our everyday language? It's likely to make sense of a situation or a concept. They are in fact, very useful. They are also way over used in certain settings, to the point of annoyance and even detriment. So what can we do about it?

    In this episode, we discuss idioms, metaphors, jargon, similes. We dive right into... er, sorry, we begin this episode with a segment that may make many of you uncomfortable, and for this we apologize. It did the same to us, but we took the bull by the... eh hem, we, well we just took control and worked through it.

    We encourage you to contact us if you suffer from idiom-overuse like Brandt and I do. Together, we can work through this.

  • Misophonia

    Welcome to our first "sprint" episode!

    Whats is a sprint episode you ask? One of us does not know the topic prior to recording and we barely touch it post-record. Also, Brandt is annoying. Ok, that's a bit much... the sounds Brandt makes are sometimes really annoying and drive me crazy. The chewing, the knife and fork on the plate, the crunching of chips, etc. are just too much sometimes, especially when we are recording a podcast.

    Welcome to the world of misophonia - the strong negative emotional and physical reaction to sounds made by others. In this episode, we experience in real time the thrills of misophonia. I hope you enjoy it as much as I didn't!
