I’m sorry there are some audio distractions, but I’m glad it has been brought to my attention. I’ve been recording audio/video content for about a year now on another site, and I’m going to go back and check some of my other recent videos to compare. I suspect that I simply had the microphone too close to my mouth, and I can fix that in my next round of videos. I usually do a short audio test before the proper recording, and I may have failed to do so, or bumped the mic afterwards.

Until I began writing for Academy, I never recorded audio *during* the match as I played it, always doing replays instead. In a replay, you know what you intend to talk about, you can just say it and move the match along at your own pace, there’s no dead air to fill and you’re not thinking through everything in real-time. Recording live is an entirely different animal, and the mic is apparently picking up my “tongue-clicking” as I’m thinking through a play. I will make an effort to limit this in the next batch of videos. I will also get some suggestions on any reasonable and efficient technological solutions on cleaning up audio.
