Vitally, Unip pizza ovens and delete me. My name is Mike Hurley and I'm joined by Jason

Snell. Hi Jason.

Hello, Mike Hurley.

We've got a lot of things to cover today,

so I'm gonna get straight into it.

The Snell talk question, it comes from Ryan.

Ryan wants to know, when you're recording a podcast,

do you have your own voice coming through your headphones

along with your co-hosts,

or do you have yourself muted in your headphones

and just hear yourself muffled through the headphones? you have yourself

muffled through the headphones.

So this is called, I think it's called return.

And I got advice very early on when I was using a blue snowball in my very beginning time where there's no return.

So you can only hear yourself sort of through your muffled ears, which is, you know, you can't even hear it like you normally talk because you got headphones in.

And I was given advice early on that ideally you want return coming into your ears because then you can hear how you sound,

which is good.

It allows you to modulate your own voice to be an appropriate volume and you can tell if there's a problem

with your audio that way.

So I can't, I had to do, I forget where I was,

maybe visiting my mom.
