We left a high amount of background audio in the Devday podcast, which many of you loved, but we definitely understand that some of you may have had trouble with it. Listener Klaus Breyer ran it through Auphonic with speech islolation and we figured we’d upload it as a backdated pod for people who prefer this. Of course it means that our speakers sound out of place since they now sound like they are talking loudly in a quiet room. Let us know in the comments what you think?
