![]() In fact, Twight would argue that a good workout should make you feel almost queasy upon hearing what lies ahead. Or maybe it was vice versa.Įither way, it's the reason Butler enlisted the help of Mark Twight, a former world-class mountain climber who, based on personal experience, believes in training as if your life depends on it. That's because the intense training required to build a warrior's physique - aesthetically and functionally - simultaneously cultivated a warrior's mentality. Early on, it became an all-consuming task. To become King Leonidas, Butler, who by his own admission was in less- than-ideal shape when he was tapped for the starring role in 300, spent 4 months transforming both his body and his mind. Would a vampire heed deadlines? Would a king compare swatches? And when you consider his larger-than-life roles in modern-day epics such as Dracula 2000, Attila the Hun, and the newly released 300 - in which he plays Leonidas, King of Sparta ( *1) - you understand why he might run late for an appointment or take 3 years to remodel his apartment. After all, his success as an actor depends on his ability to inhabit the mind of another person and then stay in character for months. While all of this frustrates Butler enough to take a stab at laser-light therapy, at least he can justify his disorganized personal life as an occupational hazard. ![]() Once inside, he quickly apologizes for the clutter of brochures and tile samples, which he attributes to the overdue renovation of his Manhattan condo - the one he bought in early 2004 but has yet to occupy. Butler not only is 45 minutes late for our interview, but also requires an additional 5 minutes to tidy up - his pug puppy is in heat - and then another 10 when his room key won't open the door. ![]() Download 300 the Workout to your MP3 playerĭownload 300 the Workout Quick Start Guide ![]()

So here are two audio clips I recorded: one with my computer microphone and one with a Blue Yeti. I really want you to hear the difference for yourself. How different could the best podcast microphone possibly be? (audio samples) ” Those grainy, staticky conference calls are what your podcast will sound like if you don’t invest in the right microphone.Īnd since we can’t afford to lose your listeners based on something as fundamental as audio quality, we need to get the right microphone in your hands ASAP. We’ve all been on a Zoom call where all you hear is, “Thanks, Mandy for sh-ing-–. On the other hand, we also know exactly what bad audio sounds like. In every movie, TV show, and song we hear, we’re listening to high-budget high-quality audio perfection. Think about how often we’re exposed to professional-quality audio. In fact, you’re probably a listening expert yourself! (Don’t let me stop you!) Why does a great podcast microphone matter?Įven though your audience isn’t full of audio production experts, they’re all listening experts. That said, there are many amazing XLR microphones out there, so if you already have one, or think you’d prefer it, it’s a great choice. And if you go the USB route, you don’t need an audio interface. ![]() USB microphones like the Blue Yeti are a newer technology and have really improved tech-wise since the podcasting and gaming boom.Īs I mentioned previously, I don’t recommend an XLR microphone for beginners since the USB mics are easier and sound just as good to the average listener. The audio interface is what musicians and podcasting studios use to connect their XLR microphones to an editing device (like a computer). Unless you’ve purchased an XLR microphone, you won’t need an audio interface. (Note: The Aokeo is cheaper than the first choice, but I think the arm is slightly harder to attach to your microphone.) Audio Interface & Cables Aokeo Professional Microphone Pop Filter Mask Shield For Blue Yeti and Any Other Microphone (Amazon).Pop Filter For Blue Yeti Microphone (Amazon).Here are a few additional microphones at different price points from my top brands, plus a few that are well-loved by many podcasters: Audio-Technica AT2020USB Plus Condenser Microphone But broadly, my favorite brands (for almost any microphone) are Rode, Shure, and Blue (now Logitech). Their mics all have different uses, but they’re all high-quality brands trusted by countless podcasters and radio broadcast professionals. The Yeti and Shure MV7 are our top recommendations, and have been our consistent picks since 2021. Our top recommendation is the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2, 4th gen. □ Since this is an XLR microphone – not a USB microphone – you’ll need an additional piece of equipment called an audio interface to connect to your microphone to your computer. (It required a lot of creators to purchase a third piece of equipment – a cloudlifter – which is no longer necessary.) Not only does it introduce switches on the back of the mic, but it also introduces a pre-built preamp, which fixes a low gain problem in the SM7b. ![]() If you’re looking for the best possible microphone for podcasters, YouTubers, or online course creators, most experts agree that Shure is the brand to choose.Īnd although the SM7B is the long-standing gold standard in audio, the recently-released SM7Bd is our current top pick for online business owners because it’s been specifically tailored for online creators. You have your choice of colors, and it’s typically priced around $100-$120. That said, buying a separate boom arm does improve the Yeti’s audio quality slightly, so it’s worth considering. The Yeti also comes on a stand, which means you won’t need to buy one separately.

Stained glass lights feature trim in multiple colors, and three-shade lights come in multiple styles and colors, including several choices that feature a set of miniature decorative billiard balls. The general consensus is that fluorescent or compact fluorescent bulbs are optimal.Ĭolor and style choices abound among the billiard lights you can browse here.The World Pool-Billiard Association says a light fixture should be a minimum of 40 inches above the bed of the table, but anywhere between 36 and 42 inches is acceptable.Some wisdom about billiard table lighting that might strike a chord: The electrical cord runs up one of the hanging chains and through the decorative ceiling mount so it is virtually unnoticeable. ![]() Any of our table lights will work over any sized table but you might want to choose one of the longer ones if your table is over 9 foot.There won’t be any unsightly cords dangling over your table, because all of the light bars we sell must be hard-wired, so make sure you have an electricity source above where you want to hang your light. These pool table lights range in size from 48 to 68 inches and there are dozens to choose from. You can select from decorative metal lights, beautiful stained glass and Tiffany-style billiard lights, or the customizable 3-shade lights featuring metal shades in multiple colors as well as brass, chrome or black matte bar options.

However, v3.2.13 didn't work for me in Windows 11, 10, or 8. I successfully tested it with Windows 7, and didn't run into any problems. Restoration is said to support Windows Vista, XP, 2000, NT, ME, 98, and 95. I also don't like that there's no indication about a file's recoverability before you try to get it back. However, its inability to recover a whole folder at once (just single files) makes it hard to recommend before some of these other, better choices. Like some of the other popular data recovery tools on this list, Restoration is small and does not need to be installed, giving it the flexibility to be run from a floppy disk or USB drive. Restoration can recover files from hard drives, memory cards, USB drives, and other external drives. There are no cryptic buttons or complicated file recovery procedures-everything you need is in one, easy to understand program window. The thing I like most about Restoration is how incredibly simple it is to recover files. The Restoration program is similar to the other free undelete apps on this list. The portable version of Wise Data Recovery is available through Softpedia. This app is said to run on Windows 11, 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP, as well as macOS. On the flip side, there isn't a limit to how much data you can recover, so it beats some of the competition in that regard. This program does not do that, so that's a bummer. Most programs tell you how recoverable a file is before you attempt to undelete it. It can check for deleted files on various USB devices like memory cards and other removal devices.Īn instant search function makes it really quick and easy to search for deleted files that the program has found, and there's both a quick and a full scan option depending on how deep of a scan you want to perform. I like that the program installed very quickly and scanned my PC in record time. Wise Data Recovery is a free undelete program that's really simple to use. ![]() When undeleting files, the original folder structure isn't retainedĬan't know a file's chance of usability before undeleting it Earlier versions work with older operating systems like Windows 8 through XP. The program works with 64-bit versions of Windows 11 and Windows 10, plus most versions of macOS. That's quite small, especially if you have lots of stuff to retrieve. Of course, my biggest complaint is the 500 MB recovery limit. It has several useful features: preview files before recovering them, pause scans and resume them later, perform partition recovery, back up an entire drive, filter files by date or size, run a quick scan versus a full scan for faster results, and save scan results so you can easily import them again to recovery deleted files at a later time. ![]() Fortunately, there are nearly two dozen other options in this list!ĭata Recovery Wizard supports macOS 12 through 10.9 Windows 11, 10, 8, and 7 and Windows Server 2022, 2019, 2016, 2012, 2008, and 2003.ĭisk Drill is an excellent free data recovery program not only because of its features but also due to the very simple design, making it almost impossible to get confused.Īccording to their website, Disk Drill can recover data from " virtually any storage device," such as internal and external hard drives, USB devices, memory cards, and iPods. ![]() ![]() That said, this program will only be useful a few times, or less if the file is big. I almost didn't include this program because of that limitation, but since most situations call for undeleting much less than that, I'll let it slide. Please know that EaseUS' program will only recover a total of 512 MB of data before you'll need to upgrade (or up to 2 GB if you use the share button in the program to post about the software on social media). While that may not be everyone's ideal way to display files, it's a very familiar interface that most people are comfortable with.ĮaseUS Data Recovery Wizard will undelete files from hard drives, optical drives, memory cards, iOS devices, cameras, and pretty much anything else that Windows sees as a storage device. My favorite thing about this program is that the user interface is structured much like File Explorer. Recovering files is very easy to do with just a few clicks.
