I need to make better titles! Episode 29: Podcasting Challenges Series: 2-connection failure 3-expensive and useless to us equipment. Good thing I never bought a microphone! This episode shares the challenges our guests face when trying to connect with us. Some live in places with sporadic electricity and poor internet connections, but they still work hard to show up for the recording. We appreciate you so much! This actually prompted me to purchase apps I thought would help with splicing audio together, but I ended up with expensive apps that are useless to me. Too bad they’re not transferable or I would give them away!

Podcasting Mistakes Series: Mistake 1 - not having a script or transcript. I don’t have a single transcript of my episodes. I would like it done so those who are Deaf, I’m thinking of my one friend in particular can still be part of my my podcasting life. Also, I “mastered” this audio and it sounds the worst out of all my podcasts. I spent $35 on Mic Swap Pro and Audio Master Pro and this recording ended up really awful. I’ll just stick with the default mic on the iPad and iPhone via Anchor. I guess make that Mistake 2-buying equipment that you don’t need. See you next time!

Mom and I have been estranged for 6 years, and in this episode we talked about part of what happened. I know friends and family have been curious. This episode is more for us than our audience, so you might feel like you don’t know what we were talking about. So, if you have any questions and feedback, feel free to send a voice memo or contact me on FB at Ranela Makes if you want to talk. A few months back, my mom and I talked about possibly doing a mother wound type of podcast, but we (I) was still too hurt to even have a coherent conversation with her. We might have more episodes together here, a new podcast or guest in another mother wound addressing podcast. We both have ADD (her) ADHD (me), so when we talk, we get distracted as you will notice in the recording. The only part I removed from the podcast is when I talked about my partner’s possible reaction. So, this unscripted, unrehearsed, candid conversation was recorded in 30 minutes. Posting this as Season 1 Episode 26 because mom’s birthday is 1/26.
