"Another classic Byron episode. Great script, great cast, and great production.

Elie "the man of a thousand voices" Hirschmann was in fine form.
Laura was perfect as Christina Sparrow.
David makes a perfectly understated and dry Byron.

A real pleasure to listen to. "

podcasting

I have started to produce the occasional podcast, if for nothing else than to keep in practice, both with recording and mixing. Plus, I have accumulated a large number of musical tracks and this gives me a chance to use them as background.
Right now, it's just me introducing a few clips of something I've worked on, but I may get around to interviewing some friends and featuring them as well.
