    EP: 3 How to choose the right podcast microphone for your voice

    A microphone is at the top of my list of essential tools for a podcaster. If you have any budget that's what I will always recommend people invest in first. It's not always easy knowing what mic to choose, a lot of online resources are geared toward male or deeper voices. Heather Welch is a fellow Kiwi podcaster. She launched her first podcast in 2017 and quickly developed a love for audio gear. She created the website The Women On Mic Project' to help other women hear how microphones sound on other women's voices.  Heather shares her experience of off-grid life on Sunshine and Powercuts and other parts of her life on Just Heather. In this episode we cover:  - How to choose the right microphone for your voice - Recommendations for podcast microphones - How to minimise distracting noises in your audio And more!  Check out HK Productions  www.hkproductionsnz.com @hkproductions_podcasts  Heather's links Women on Mic @iamjustheather

    EP 1. A discussion from my kitchen table: Elina Ashimbayeva talks about diversity

    Why is diversity important to the stories we tell? And how do white folks become better allies? These two questions I tried to tackle at my kitchen table with the wonderful Elina Ashimbayeva.  Elina launched Storyo in 2019 with her partner to tell people's stories who aren't represented by the mainstream media.  They wanted to celebrate people who are social workers, local artists and local politicians, sex workers, and teachers. To celebrate diversity.  At the time of recording a Hollywood producer had announced they were going to make a film about the Christchurch Mosque Attacks, with Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern as the central character. We sat down over cups of tea and biscuits to discuss why it is problematic when you move the narrative away from being victim-centered. Which was a great springboard into a conversation about diversity, privilege, and getting uncomfortable.  Topics covered:  How to be an inclusive storyteller  What diversity looks like in practice How to be a good ally  I Can't Make Bread so I Made a Podcast is a podcast made by HK Productions. A podcast for podcasters!  Elina's Links Storyo website Storyo Instagram HK Productions Links Website Instagram The C Word Radio Podcast  Music: This Podcast Opener, NoahSound
