Kathie's note: Jenny Leigh and I actually met in the late '90s and then reconnected in 2017 or '18 or '19, pick a year. Musicians who write and writers who are musicians are so much fun. Endless topics; never at a loss for words.
After we said goodbye during this podcast, but before we hung up our Zoom headphones, we stuck around for tech talk. She is using Descript to streamline her podcast process, while I use Castmagic and a Microsoft version of Audacity called Better Audio Editor. I casually mentioned something about separate audio tracks in Zoom, which was news to her. Yes, two tracks in Zoom settings, y'all.
We both use Buzzsprout!
