Once you’ve listed to this ep. Tweet @Huppy and get the backstory of just how he ended up as Brockie’s co-driver.
Very interesting episode – widely applicable. AND great sound! 😉
Thanks for the feedback on the sound Ken, went all in on using the Zoom H6. Thankfully office less background noise helps as well.
