I've become a religious OmniFocus user thanks to my friend Henry Faber. Finally, I have Cold Turkey set up on a schedule to keep me offline in the morning when I do my best writing. My producer and I share files, solicit file uploads, and take notes using Dropbox and Dropbox Paper. I'm trying to do less writing in Google Docs because I'm touchy about losing access to my work, but it's still how I communicate with my editor about revisions. I also write in TextWrangler, though I've been experimenting with Cold Turkey Writer. I use VLC to review episodes and TextWrangler to write show notes in Markdown. And what software?įor episodes with guests, I use Skype with Ecamm's Skype Call Recorder to grab my side of the call and a backup of the guest's. I record and do most other work on a cheap IKEA desk in the closet of my small Crown Heights bedroom. When recording, I speak into an Audio-Technica ATR2100-USB mic on a RODE PSA1 boom arm and monitor with Sony MDR-7506 monitor headphones. ![]() For reasons that are partly necessity and partly a bizarre form of self-flagellation, I am not the kind of person who replaces things on a regular schedule. I will likely continue using it until it becomes untenable. I spend most of my day on a 2011 MacBook Pro that I bought for $400 from an acquaintance in 2014 and upgraded with the help of Stay Mean producer Nic Bravo. ![]() And sometimes I write about internet culture, relationships, and labour - right now I have a column at MEL Magazine. With Daniel Shannon, I'm a part of Ignota Media, a publishing endeavour for and by underrepresented voices. With my producer Nic Bravo, I run a podcast network called Stay Mean and host a couple of shows.
