Actually Gary that's not true. You see I already had a two track converter that I used for recording band rehearsals and all my solo recording, but I needed a four track to record the four voices for The Nerd Trap. I bought an M-Audio Quad for about $200 not knowing that M-Audio had been acquired by another company. It worked for a little while but then developed a horrible buzz whenever I used more than two tracks. After a very difficult and lengthy contact with the company they had me mail it to them AT MY EXPENSE and sent it back about a month later. It worked for a while and then developed the same problem. I am done throwing good money after bad. So now I have two stereo converters. I see that Tascam has a reasonably priced four track converter that I can purchase for the show, but being that the last two episodes received zero comments I wondering if it's really worth it. The four of us can drink and talk about Star Trek anytime. We often do.

Although I'm unsure if posting will merely encourage you to buy more microphones? I didn't really follow that part. Though I like the idea of crowd-sourcing enthusiasm.
Anyway, this is a great podcast, the best one I have ever listened to. Even if I one day eventually get around to listening to some other podcast, this will still be the best.
Btw, the "180 Degree Rule" pertains to keeping a consistent camera angle in visual storytelling (whether is film or comics). If Kirk has been on the left the whole scene, and Spock has been on the right, if you suddenly show Kirk on the right, the audience becomes momentarily distracted, part of their thoughts now occupied with filling in an explanation (i.e., "the characters must have moved around while we weren't looking"), instead of following the story. Sometimes filmmakers or comics artists get too ambitious or creative with their camera work, they violate the 180 degree rule, and the viewer/reader gets dizzy.

OK, how's this: I enjoy listening to these podcasts, and I haven't even seen the original series! Surely that counts for three votes? So now you've got your five. Buy the damn equipment, and keep broadcasting. Please.
