whereas when megyn kelly started her podcast she used an sm7b, signaling "i'm not part of the mainstream media, i'm alt"

[Andrew Limbong @AndrewLimbong]

the ringer seemingly going all in on re20s (to my eye?) as opposed to sm7bs is an interesting data point as an almost nostalgic callback towards sports/talk radio

[Andrew Limbong @AndrewLimbong]

it's also interesting how way back when flagrant moved to a new studio they ditched the sm7bs in favor of lavs, making it more seem like "the view for dudes" as opposed to it previously feeling like "a pod for da boys"

[Andrew Limbong @AndrewLimbong]

@exhaustdata lmao same

[Andrew Limbong @AndrewLimbong]

vibe shift solidified: the public radio reporter turned famous food youtuber is now HOLDING an sm7b in his latest video podcast. wild times indeed!

@Austinbikes incredible posting

[Andrew Limbong @AndrewLimbong]

remember that feeling of ego death when you went into an urban outfitters and everyone else was wearing black skinny jeans and a flannel? well i, too, spent the weekend listening to the tim remaster and have feelings about it.

[Andrew Limbong @AndrewLimbong]
