The above link is an affiliate link, which means I get a commission if you do decide to purchase something. It is not a sponsored video, meaning they didn't pay me to do the video and they didn't even ask me to do the video. Full disclosure: I did send that joke about Olly to him after I recorded to make sure that I didn't hurt his feelings, but his feelings seem to be a bit tougher than the British batting line-up, so it's all good.

Who was the bowler in both the crykkut clips shown? Crykkut is a linguistic variant of a very similar looking game. _
My sound is so much better in my newer videos due to my RØDE Podmic. RØDE is an Australian company and the only reason you don't see their microphones EVERYWHERE is that certain other brands spend more on marketing. I have recorded music with my podmic, and I have a music degree. That's how much I trust the audio quality.
If you want the mic that plugs directly into your computer via USB, they have the Podmic USB.
This is the black version: https://brandstore.rode.com/products/podmic-usb?sca_ref=7915119.qd860tcG8Q
This is the white version: https://brandstore.rode.com/products/podmic-usb-white?sca_ref=7915119.qd860tcG8Q
If you don't need the USB function (you have your own audio interface for XLR cable), you can use the cheaper versions:

https://brandstore.rode.com/products/white-podmic?sca_ref=7915119.qd860tcG8Q (white, non-USB)
