In this week's episode, we kick this off VERY DIFFERENTLY than what you're used to if you're a regular listener here. Instead of bringing my microphone that I know would be miles better, I chose to use the microphone on my phone for today's show.

We all have standards for what is acceptable and what's not when it comes to our video content but what if it comes down to just doing a down and dirty setup vs your very best setup? Would you wait until you're in "your best" or just do it?

Is a lack of gear holding you back from creating the content you envision or is it just a preference holding you back?

The Best Memory Card for the Rodecaster Pro

If you've just purchased the Rodecaster Pro or currently adding to cart all the things you need to buy alongside your Rodecaster Pro, be sure the add the right memory card.

The last thing you want to do is get to a place where you're frustrated because you're ready to record your next podcast or interview and your memory card is showing little to no space available.

Here's a quick video if you prefer a visual example, or you can skip down to the recommended memory card to use.

The Rode has listed only specific brands to use with the Rodecaster Pro and they agree to only use Sandisk or Samsung MicroSD memory cards.

In this week's episode, I share with you how you can create content easier, especially when you're busy - which we all are these days!

That introduces a concern regarding the Clubhouse rules for when recording is acceptable and when it's not.

BEWARE: Recording others or other speakers and their conversation without their permission is against Clubhouse app rules and their Community Guidelines and can result in being removed from the platform.
