I thought Steve’s mic problem was just a joke voice modifier for the Matrix talk, was proven wrong.
Can you please turn up the volume.
May I ask why you continue to stay in California Mr. Whittle?
I think he may be masochistic at this point…. Should we start organizing group therapy sessions if he stays there for five more years?
The Swedish Bikini Team was on Old Milwaukee Beer.
True Story:
I’ve taken to using Bill’s Lightning Round catchphrase in my classroom, for various and sundry occasions.
Last week I get a note from a very concerned parent. She wanted to know who this new student Larry was, and why was he hurting her daughter. Apparently, she started to use the phrase at home.
Thanks, Bill. 😀 😉
Grats to the Blues for making it to the finals. So happy they beat the team that knocked out the Avs. Should be a great series this year. Go Bruins!
Foreigner did sing Feels Like the First Time, not Neil Diamond.
I saw The LA Garbage Pile open for Slayer back in the day
The Swedish Bikini Team was Old Milwaukee. That was the favorite beer of a buddy of mine back in the day. He liked them warm because they went down smoother.
I’m actually surprised we haven’t had 1918 death rates as some medieval disease sweeps through one of these Dem train-wreck cities.
Steve: I only drink Leftist Tears Vodka will watching the show!
Scott: Was your friend name Susan?

Scott: This is not Eject, Eject, Eject [Dang!]
Modern computers no longer have cupholders.
It was around 23:30 that Steve’s mic developed issues, as Scott was trying to remember Sam Neill’s name. I went back to see if he bumped something but I couldn’t see any reason for it to start buzzing.
Steve, hope your hockey team does better than “my” NBA Bucks did tonight. 🙁
The SAT body is the “College Board”
Turns out it was Hugo Weaving. Bill remembered after the show.
Yeah, that’s right. I was thinking of Jurrasic Park guy but didn’t really think it was the same actor. Hugo was also in Lord of the Rings and people have joked about Sam and Frodo calling him Smith (I think).
California budget is $183 billion.
If you decide to get a decent microphone Steve. Please remember the shock mount or use a boom arm (or both). Blue makes some nice USB mic’s Also Zoom.
Blue
Zoom
I just ditched my Blue mic for an even fancier setup. For reasons I haven’t been able to track down, both have been problematical recently.
For my broadcast quality gear I use BSWUSA and more cost effective stuff I use sweetwater.
Hey, Scott, I have one of those cup holders on my computer, too. I just grease the heck out of it and it never gives me a problem. tee hee! Great Backstage show, guys. I look forward to these with great antici……pation and bated breath. Thanks so much for all you do. (big hugs and platonic kisses to all of you)
Yeah, not gonna watch ANY of the Right Angle shows this week if Steve’s mic problem isn’t fixed… 🙁
My wife vowed to go on a sex strike until Steve’s mic is fixed. And by sex strike I mean she refuses to sleep with Alissa Milano. Somehow I doubt she would have beforehand anyway…
No socialism. Ever. I tried to take a Gallup poll once…I could never catch the horse…
Steve, ya got microphone problems or something.
He always has microphone problems… he needs to get a good condenser mic like Bill and Scott have.
I’ve got a great mic (new) and a new board as well. In testing, everything is great. When we shoot, we’ve had problems I just can’t duplicate, which makes it very difficult to track down and fix.
Someday, producers of TV talk shows will have other people monitoring the quality of the video and the audio while the show is being recorded. These people will be called directors, and sound engineers. They’ll allow the hosts on the show to focus on the content they’re producing, rather than worrying about technical difficulties. Someday these people will ensure that, if there’s a problem, production is halted immediately so the problem can be fixed before everything is completed. Someday… Naaahh.
A well produced RA program? What is this bizarre thing of which you speak?
Kidding aside Scott, if you can get the memberships, I think what we’d rather see the funds go toward would be first getting you to quit your day job, and then bringing in more episodes featuring some old friends like Zo and Kruiser.
Of course, your full time status could include better production…
And when are you going to work with Klavan again!!!!?
Who?
Scott, that’s crazy talk!
Besides, I always thought Steve was a robot anyway.
No human can consume that amount of alcohol and live.
Interesting that it recorded scratchy, but neither Scott nor Bill could hear a problem. Are you using the same mic to record as they are hearing on the call? Or are you talking to each other on a phone line while recording separately? Weird that it started up after more than 20 minutes. Probably karma for drinking clear liquor instead of something more gender appropriate 😉
NO – That’s Scott singing… 🙂
