  • Highest 2 Lowest and Nobody 2
    Aug 21 2025

    For these two episodes, Toy and I tried something different. I bought those mics that the influencers who do the on-street interviews use, and we recorded while driving home from the movies. During the first review, I had some movement in the mic, so I apologize for that. The second time, I held the mic, but when I moved my head, the mic didn't go with me. This is a work in progress, so please forgive me if the audio isn't as crisp as you're used to.
