A good Monday to you all.

Good morning, Sir

Saginaw! Welcome to the Racket.

Racket after riots. Reflecting upon the riots of '67

Eating to the beat.

I went last night.

@ KOTJ - Were you there when the violent part broke out?

I saw a bottle thrown at group of cops on bikes I biked with and some MBTA security.

I found the protestors divisive and unpacking more than just the main issue. I wish I went to the prayer rally in the day instead.

Just b/c they wear a uniform, they are not all murders.

I know. It's depressing.

A ton of weed being smoked!!

People going up to the police I was around and screaming at them...pussy, coward, why don't choke me...ridiculous messages.

Also...I was ancient.

checkin' in. good morning to the infernals.

G'Mornin', Bruckner!

As an remote pilot of autonomous vehicles I was impressed seeing an autonomous ship link up with an autonomous booster rocket that made a pin point landing.

at least it was Murica sending that rocket into space not a private company owned by a south african billionaire son of a billionaire.

Actually, being hunkered down in a space station for three months sounds pretty good at the present time.

ideal!

I liked how advanced the space suits appeared; sleek, lightweight, designed. The ship control panel is really cool, too.

Yes! The space suits look pretty good. I miss the green screen control panels though.

Hi DJ Simon. What kind of microphone are you using?

They littered space with a Tesla a coupla' years ago. It was dropped payload on an autonomous unmanned launch

is there any SPOCK coming in this show?

How about Hawkwind???

@Andrew - A Yeti Blue

"A Silver Machine"!!!

@ Andrew - Came close to playing some Hawkwind!

@andrew...I use the ATR2100x-USB for the price it's great.

The mike sounds good. I am looking to repace my Blue Snowball which picks up too much desk and ambient noise

I've been looking at ATR 2100x

Rode PodMic Dynamic Podcasting Microphone also a good price and sound

Oh yeah, I got that backward - it's a Blue Yeti

Also a Rode NTB-USB

and a Rode NTB USB mini

The problem with my mic is it's benefit. Doesn't pick up ambient noise but you do need to be close to mic

What's its polar pattern?

Yeti has switchable polar patterns - Bidirectional, Cardioid, Omnidirectional

Northville, MI flight just landed. 6am I was remoting a flight outside Oslo, Norway.

Wow, that drone must be pretty fast to get from Norway to Michigan in three hours.

i seem to never get the gonnection. alas...

Thanks for the mic info, DJ Simon

You're welcome!

@Bruckner - that's kinda by design - the game show that you can't win.

worth tuning in for the game show music!

Right? Good ol' Herb.

@Andrew Herman if you're on a Mac, software like Audio Hijack can put a gate on your mic so it only opens when you talk, otherwise closes so none of the ambience bleeds through.

Hello,DJ Simon,hope you’re doing well-thank you for the lovely music-didn’t realize you were doing an extended version of “Infernal Racket “.Warm Regards & wishes for good health.

Thanks, Barry - right back at ya!

@Jeff – Good tip, I gotta try that. I've seen all those filters and effects in Audio Hijack and haven't experimented with them.

Hello again-l just realized I was mistaken-your show starts at 8 am,not 6 am-not sure what I was thinking.Oh well...

Did I hear my name being used in vain?

@Victor - Not at all! Always appreciate the feedback and coaching.

only joking bro

Yeah, I know.

the karate kid?

Art of Self Defense

im pretty sure thats what they teach the kid in the movie, that karate is always for self defense

@Jeff - Sandra La uses a facemask for a pop filter when talking. Thought you'd enjoy that budget studio tip.

With DJ Simon's blessings and Jeff Berlin's generous spirit: http://soundsyrup.com/KOTJ.html Home shows and KOTJs in one convenient location. One stop, contact-less delivery.

Ha! Contact-less delivery, I like that. Thanks for posting - I plug them in the next talk break.

Hopefully with mention of Jeff.

Anyone seen the latest Amazon TV ad....worker refers to her job at amazon like getting the golden ticket and going to the chocolate factory. Probably more the Tim Burton one. Give me convenience or give me death.

Scrubbed six or seven F-bombs out of this new IDLES song.

"facemask for a pop filter" Haha great idea !

Actually works pretty well!

@DJ Simon you mic sounds flawless, you don't need to gate, eq, or anything beyond what you're already doing..

@KOTJ haven't seen that Amazon ad.. thin line between advertising and propaganda..

@Jeff - Thanks. I hear a bit of ambient echo when I have headphones on, but it's not too noticeable otherwise.

BTW Pip's not on, he's the last holdout of the Z's Pandemic radio effort.

Thanks for listening and visiting on the chat, everyone!
