Since the three of us were separated by hundreds of miles the audio quality is not as good as what you typically hear from a TechTalk4Teachers podcast. The compression algorithms reduce audio quality while trying to maintain a consistent connection with Teams. Overall, pretty amazing that we can still schedule a podcast recording in these extraordinary times of Stay at Home orders using our existing equipment that we already have at home.
