Unhappy with low gain on a previous recording, I've turned off pre-processing and told my HoQ MP3 Android app to use both mics on my Samsung Note 9 when recording. I wonder if the episode description might push out as part of the syndicated audio served by Anchor. If you have suggestions, please DM me via http://twitter.com/topgold or email underwayinireland@yahoo.ie -- thanks!  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/topgold/message
We had some adventures whe inboxing Christmas gifts. I learned I must do better when logging my Moleskine items. The family learned old tech like Chromecast works well with the new UHD TV. My daughter learned fake nails and greasy hands can hurt an iPhone's screen. And I am very satisfied with our new slow cooker, a too-sharp Wunsthof knife, and some entertaining induction lights. If you want to share your unboxing please hit me up http://twitter.com/topgold or via underwayinireland@yahoo.ie and we can continue the conversation. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/topgold/message
I made Christmas dinner for 10 people and half was uneaten. My Note 9 and Chromecast served more than 100 clips to the in-law's TV. Dylan (8) is deep into his Nintendo Switch and Mia (12) is happy with a free iPhone 8. I hope you have a happy holiday season.

I work with a lot of creative people on the Clonmel Digital Campus and know they have high autonomy needs. I've also figured out some of their best innovation is a collective result. My students need a little consideration from the Irish government so they might be able to earn more than 4500 euro a year without losing their education grant. Some of my students work behind the bar on weekends. Other students who are based in Dublin are baristas in the coffee culture of Ireland. Some analysts believe Irish coffee shops have reached a saturation point. Nearly all of the Sunday papers in Ireland covered the law suit Brenda Romera has launched against the University of Limerick, alleging UL damaged her reputation concerning her running (or not running) UL's Masters programme in game design. Another creative woman, Sinead Gleeson, has released a collection of essays called Constellations: Reflections from Life. I'm reading it at the moment and highly recommend it.

Watching small post offices close in Ireland. But you need people--not just elderly people seeking a social interaction at a post office counter--in small towns to keep _all_ of the little town's life blood flowing. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/topgold/message

Thinking about many of my favourite walks in Ireland. Up Croagh Patrick in the fog. Along the eroded cliffs from Greystones to Bray. Shuffling miles after work from the DART. Getting my first hiking boots for treks up the Sugarloaf Mountains. Enjoying the colour purple in the Knockmealdown Mountains. Seeing topless Germans on Achill Island. Smelling lovely aromas at night in centre city Dublin. Lifted by the smell of hops in Kilkenny's laneways. Sucking on raspberries along the boreens of County Tipperary. Walking through Burgagery Lands in Clonmel on the way to work. And marveling at long boats in the River Suir while walking the Blueway. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/topgold/message
Leaving Anchor V2

Leaving Anchor V2

After a week at the top of the charts on Anchor v2, I decided to move across to version three. And Eli Garf is coming with me! I heard from Maria Humphreys and Paul O'Mahony so I put them into this episode as well. A lot of people are talking about where podcasting is headed, so I recapped Tom Webster's Medium article that answers that question. And I've included Auf dem Wasser zu Singer by Franz Liszt as well as Zoe Keating's "We Insist" from her excellent "One Cello x 16" collection. You should buy both of them too. If you want more than me babbling, you should head over to http://insideview.ie where this episode features in a blog post. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/topgold/message
Bernie experiments at @omaniblog's request by using iOS11 to hear both audio and video content before repurposing that content as MP3 uploads to Anchor. No Waves were harmed during this experimentation with Limor, Anchor, Converter+ and Voice Record Pro (in cover art). --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/topgold/message
