Dolby Atmos Mixing: Redefining the Studio Soundstage

Once reserved for blockbuster cinemas, Dolby Atmos is now rewriting the rulebook for how we create and experience music. In this episode, Chris & Jody unpack what mixing in Atmos really means for the modern producer — from recording setup tips and home studio gear requirements to the creative freedom of 3D sound.

They’ll walk you through the tech (yes, it’s more than just panning in space), explain what makes it different from stereo, and debate whether it’s the real future of mixing or just another passing phase. You’ll hear how immersive sound is reshaping everything from headphone design to distribution platforms like Apple Music, Amazon, and TIDAL—and how even indie creators can start experimenting with spatial audio without dropping Hollywood-level cash.

With sharp insight, a dose of humor, and those signature Friday Finds, this episode gives you the full picture: the hype, the workflow, the roadblocks, and the genuine creative potential of Atmos mixing in the real world.

Whether you’re a gearhead, a mixer looking to upgrade, or just curious about where music production is headed next—this is essential listening.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
