The "bat wing rug" part. Oh man. I don't know how you guys do it. So funny.

Crif Dogs is the great hot dog joint with the speakeasy bar in New York. http://www.crifdogs.com/ they do veggie dogs too if that's your preference awesome episode

I changed up the editing a bit this episode, in order to save myself a day's work. Did you notice? I'm still gonna try to improve the process and make it sound better in the future.

I noticed a difference. I thought you were using your old equipment or something. It was still fine to listen to, it just sounded different.

I also noticed a difference, it sounded strange and unfamiliar...one of the reasons your podcast stands out is its warm and cozy sound, not like a tinny AM radio show like those other podcasts. Great show though!

I didn't notice any difference in the mixing to be honest.

I have to say that coffeehouse scones can be crumbly (and sometimes sad and dry), but a homemade scone straight from the oven is a wonderful thing.

I came here to ask why it sounded so different this week...



So... why does it sound so different?

I loved hearing about the secret hot dog place and the ensuing list of places you guys knew. I will have to seek that place out next time I make it to New York.

Here in Milwaukee there is a place called the Safe House. It has an espionage theme with an emphasis on the Cold war, since it is that old. I think there used to be a chain of them across the country but it might be the last location going. Unless that is just a joke on the place mat, in which case I'm a sucker. All the entrances are secret doors and you have to know the password when you do find the entrance. There are theme rooms, hidden cameras and trapdoors. And of course assorted spy drinks and 'Code Beer.' It's a good time, I always recommend it to visitors. And some scenes in 'Major League' were shot there!

If the live Chicago show someday comes to pass, maybe you guys can make the short trip up the road to Milwaukee and check it out.
