Podcasting Hardware
Blue Yeti USB Microphone (Starter Mic)
When it comes to audio for your podcast, it's critical to have a microphone that is crystal clear so your listeners aren't distracted. We started our journey with the USB Blue Yeti, it's a middle of the line microphone that has incredible audio and doesn't break the bank.
2x Rode PodMic (Pro Kit)
We truly believe that the Rode PodMic produces similar audio to the Shure SM7B. We upgraded to the Rode PodMic once our Podcast took off. It allowed us to significantly improve the quality of our show. Compare PDM 015 to PDM 029… Do you hear the difference?
Rode PSA1 Boom Arm
We have went through a few different booms before we found the one and let us tell you from experience, this is the best on the market! We whole-heartedly believe the Rode PSA1 Boom Arm will make your life so much easier and allow your podcast to blossom.
Sony WH-1000XM3
Just like your microphone it's critical to have a headset that provides transparent sound. The Sony WH-1000XM3 provides a noise cancelling experience as well as crystal clear audio output. These headphones are some of the best on the market!
Video Hosting & Production
Audioblocks
Royalty free music is nearly impossible to come across that doesn't cost a fortune. With AudioBlocks, we are able to transform our videos from a boring hiss to a magical buzz. Music allows our members to open up their minds to new possibilities. Don't be surprised!
Epidemic Sound
Epidemic Sound built a new model for the creative industry. Where the licensing and legals of music is painless. They have created the largest curated music library on the planet. They even let you try it for free so give it a shot!
Video Hardware
Canon 80D Camera / Webcam
The Canon 80D is consistently chosen as one of the leading DSLR cameras for creators. We use different cameras depending on the project but this is the camera we recommend for creating stellar video content. It also can be used as a webcam, Lucas uses it as one 😀
Rode VideoMic Pro
Rode has definitely made a name for themselves and offers an unparalleled experience for its creators. When we aren't using the Canon G7X for a quick capture on the road, we use this mic paired with the Canon 80D to capture great audio for our viewers.
Pangshi Magic Arm
We use this magic arm paired with our monitor stand to mount the Canon 80D above the monitor screen. This is how we are able to capture that crisp, clean shot without having to worry about a tripod. The best thing about the magic arm is that it can go any direction and is stable!
Dummy Battery AC Adapter
Unfortunately, everything requires a little juice to stay connected and you definitely don't want to run out if you can help it. This adapter is great for the Canon 80D as it allow you to have an unlimited supply of power while docked to a tripod or magic arm. Stay powered on 😉
Selfie Ring Light
Wondering how we are able to get that perfect lighting for our show? We use this Selfie Ring Light to ensure that our listeners, like you, are able to see us when it low light environments or just to give a little extra exposure. We love ring lights, so helpful!
Business Operations
QuickBooks Online
Finding the perfect accounting solution for our business was tough. So many options to choose from but only a few that are truly appealing. We chose Quickbooks because it was the “best” at the time. We recommend that you try the 30-day trial.
Google Analytics
This free service is used to understand your audience and produce experiments that yield results. Without Google Analytics most websites would not have any idea how they are performing on the web. We are pretty sure Google would be lost without it as well 😉
Azlo Bank
As a business owner, everything seems super complicated at first glance but it doesn't have to be. Especially when it comes to setting up a bank account. Azlo has made the process completely virtual and can get your account open in only a few minutes.
