Feed drop time!This week, we hand the mic over to SquadPodder, Noah Labhart, host of the Code Story podcast.In this episode, Noah interviews Zach about SquadCast, how it got started, his visions for the product, and more. This episode is from early 2020, so some things have changed since. But it's an awesome interview. Think How I Built This but for tech visionaries about their products.We’re doing a feed drop! For a few reasons:1. To demonstrate the concept of a feed drop. It’s a great option in order to highlight an interview or share a friends’ podcast.2. We wanted to show off Noah's podcast!3. We had a lot going on this week, what with Zach returning from paternity leave soon, so we need some time to backlog a few episodes!From Noah's show notes:Zach Moreno is quite the renaissance man, being an artist, designer, author, developer… and a loving husband. He has interned on the Chrome team at Google, building extensions of DevTools and as a big believer in AngularJS, he wrote a book about deployment essentials of the language. After attempting to record a sci-fi drama, he found that the conventional remote audio recording tools didn’t produce a good quality recording… so much so, that he decided to build SquadCast – the best way for podcasters to record awesome sounding remote conversations.ExtrasWendy's Reinvention RebelsSubmit your podcast pre-roll ad Try out SquadCast’s remote video and audio platform for 7 days freeSquadCast’s YouTube channelOur podcast stackATR 2100 MicsApple AirPods Max HeadphonesFocusrite Scarlett 2i2 Audio InterfacesAdobe AuditionBuzzsprout
