Some hardware and software and stuff!

WordPress – My free and open source content management system of choice. Or my preferred FOSS CMS.
Seriously Simply Podcasting – A fantastic plugin for WordPress that helps with podcast distribution on your website.
FFMPG Plugin for Audacity – Import video files into Audacity to strip off the audio.
Video DownloadHelper Firefox – Download streaming videos easily.
Audacity – The best audio editor money can’t buy.
USB Mic – I use a Rock Band mic. Sure it’s cheesy, but it’s fairly decent.
Blue Yeti – A primo USB mic. I’ll be upgrading to this fairly soon.
Pop filter – The cheapest thing you can get to improve your audio.
Make your own pop filter! – Don’t worry, it’s really easy to do.
Swivel Arm Boom Mounts – They come in lots of varieties and prices. Mine was something like $30 as I recall. It doesn’t even have a brand on it.
