Sorry for the flurry of audio files the past few days, folks. I wanted to put them up in order to to get the Spotify podcast (the audio versions) caught up with the Substack (the text versions).
I also wanted to send a short note to update you on what I bought with your subscriptions. Right now a little over 100 of you get these emails and 7 of you have signed up for paid subscriptions. I’ve been able to use the money from those subscriptions to get some pieces of kit that are helping me turn these poems and Psalm translations into a Spotify podcast. Namely, I got:
A membership to Artlist.io ($199/year). Artlist is a database of songs and is my source for the background tracks on the podcast.
A new mic ($280). The old mic added hisses and pops to anything I recorded on it. The new one sounds as smooth as butter.
So, since I’m already flooding your inbox this morning, I thought I’d say thanks for supporting this project.
We’re 12 Psalms in. 138 to go.
