Audio quality has always been something that we have been improving on.

But this week, we had some technical issues which came up, which were out of our control.

So you should expect this week's show to be less than the usual quality you are used to.

There were two items which added up made this week's quality less than what we expect from ourselves.

First, Randy is out of town this week, taking some personal time.

So Ethan, our head of software,

stepped in and helped me balance some of the audio. But neither of us have Randy's magic touch,

so needless to say, we did our best. The second factor in the low quality of this week's audio

is the fact that Sumner and I both shared a microphone while we recorded.

This is actually the first time in Talosive History where two people use the same microphone.

This reduced the amount of individual control we had over each person's audio.

So if your ears tend to bleed easily, you have been warned.

We will be back next week with a very special live tech podcast,

which will be hosted on the Talosive Tech Twitch page next weekend.

Follow us on Twitter to get the details of the live stream, but as always, you will be able to listen to that stream later on iTunes.

Thank you for sticking with this this week, and without further ado, here's the show.

Welcome back to the Telosive Tech podcast, ladies and gentlemen, and today we have a very special guest.

First of all, we have Nick Ann Sweeney.

How's it going?

I'm doing pretty good.

How are you doing?

And why don't you introduce the audience and myself to your friend who we've brought on today?
