<p>We start the show by saying ta-ra to the wife and daughters and starting on our walk.</p>
<p>Note to self: record an HPR episode about coffee</p>
<p>This episode inspired by jonkulp's emergency HPR episode entitled &quot;biking2work&quot;, as mentioned on his GNUsocial post: <a href="https://micro.fragdev.com/notice/1425116" class="uri">https://micro.fragdev.com/notice/1425116</a></p>
<p>I give a brief introduction to who I am, and where I live.</p>

<p>Metric vs Imperial measurements</p>
<p>Note to self: record an HPR episode on variances between different measurement systems</p>
<p>A comparison between my Nexus 7 and my Olympus DM-3 recorder, both with and without the lapel mic. <a href="https://media.thelovebug.org/u/thelovebug/m/lapel-microphone-comparisons/" class="uri">https://media.thelovebug.org/u/thelovebug/m/lapel-microphone-comparisons/</a></p>
<p>Small glitch in the recording resulted in about 5 seconds being dropped, so it sounds a little disjointed at one point</p>
<hr />
<p>Opinion around acceptable audio quality.<br />&quot;If you can hear it, it's good enough.&quot;</p>
<p>Note to self: record an HPR episode on Auphonic and how to improve audio quality with very little effort</p>

<p>What would happen if Alex slipped and rolled down the hill.<br />Alex gives a quick introduction to himself.<br />He's also the slowest human in history.</p>
<hr />
<p>I did run this episode through Auphonic, which didn't do a bad job in the slightest.<br />Settings used: Adaptive Leveler, Filtering, Noise and hum reduction set to Auto.<br />According to the processing results, hum reduction wasn't needed.</p>
<p>It would appear as though I've promised Ken 5 new shows - no pressure, eh.</p>
