if you want some more budget friendly options, I can suggest those as well!

@Barbara Hobart the audio technica atr 2100x mic sounds kinda unbelieveably good for the price. I got one on amazon for $50 on amazon with a stand. It is also plug and play.

Are you looking to interview other people in person or you doing solo episodes or interviewing people over the web?

I don't recommend a condenser mic like the rode when traveling because the room you are in probably won't be treated and you will hear lots of echo. Get a dynamic mic. I have used the sm7b Focusrite combo for years and it sounds fantastic but if you want the same sound and it be even simpler, get the Shure Mv7. Sounds nearly identical and it's USB so no interfaces needed

https://www.opus.pro/ does this

or do it yourself with capcut

I nervous laugh way too much. I find myself cringing and cutting it out too.

It is wild how much those two specifically give away for free. We are spoiled ❤️
