Welcome to the Women in Vinyl Podcast with Jen du Genio,
founder of Women in Vinyl, and contributor Robin Raymond. This
podcast facilitates conversations with those working in the vinyl record
industry to educate, demystify, and diversify.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
The vinyl community.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
Thank you for joining us on episode fifty six of
the Women in Vinyl Podcast. You just heard a Scaffold
by the band Mahogany called a Rare Exception by the NME.
Mahogany is a Pitchfork acclaimed post punk shoegaze band based
in Philadelphia and New York City. Find Mahogany on social
media at Mahogany n y I, nt L and hear

(01:53):
their latest single, a Scaffold, along with their full discography
on all major streaming platforms. In this episode, we are
flattening warped records, balancing tone arms, and cutting tiny records
as we bring you part two of our Favorite Things episode.
We get asked all the time what products we love,
and ahead of the holiday season, we thought it was

(02:13):
the perfect time to dive in and share our favorite
brands and how we use them. Be sure to find
the companion video episode on YouTube and enjoy.

Speaker 4 (02:25):
Here we are.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
Thank you for the people that commented. We had someone
give us some more info on the static gun.

Speaker 4 (02:39):
Yeah, and I mean I felt like we read everything,
so I want to know where that piece of documentation now,
Like I opened the box and I got all the
pieces out and I didn't see that anywhere. So I mean,
hot tips love it, but I was like, what where

(02:59):
where did it say that? Okay?

Speaker 3 (03:02):
We also Ray and I were investigating a little bit
afterwards as well, and there's a really great YouTube guy
that did a bunch of different experiments with it, so
I'll send it and tag it in the show notes.
It was really good. Yeah, he took them like different ones,
different ways and like tried it out. I think he

(03:22):
still kind of felt like we did about it. But
also I got a really staticky sweater that I might.

Speaker 4 (03:28):
Try it on. Well, and that was the thing. Like, Okay,
so my immediate question to YouTube guy is how many
clicks was he at?

Speaker 3 (03:40):
Oh? He was clicking, yeah.

Speaker 4 (03:45):
Because there's no counter on it still, so fifty if
you're just like mucking around, like yeah, pretending to shoot
in your like your James Bond in your go through
a thousand easily but you're not going to remember it.
I mean I certainly wouldn't remember how many clicks.

Speaker 5 (04:06):
But anyway, and in part two, I feel like everybody
is excited that we're on the internet and it gets
hair faces.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
Now I know.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
So that's good.

Speaker 3 (04:15):
Yeah, and we're gonna be experimenting with different setups and
ways that we can continue this. So I think it's
gonna be awesome.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (04:25):
So for part two, I only have one because it's
for our one of our giveaways. But I thought we
could start by talking about cartridges and style. I so,
what is your favorite?

Speaker 4 (04:37):
I mean, I have a few different ones, and I
mean rest in peace. Sure white labels are my number one.
OG those are my favorite ones to DJ with. I
still have my pair because I mean I treated them
like they were solid gold babies. I tried to keep

(05:03):
them as good as I could. I mean, even when
we're like rock and turntables and whatever. I mean. I
did share gear one time because I opened for a DJ,
like back in the early two thousands, medium two thousands,
and they kind of thrashed one of them, but luckily
sure It was still making them at that point, so
I got a new one. But yeah, those are my

(05:26):
number one og ones, and I have an order phone Blue,
and I have an order phone Red, and then I
have just like a kind of a generic one that
I have for playback, for testing laid cuts, just to
make sure it will play for the majority of people.

(05:47):
So it's not like doesn't really have a brand. It's
just kind of a random, random one that I've found.
But it's it's good. I mean, I feel like it
gives me a realistic expectation of whether my records are
going to play for everyone or not. And then of course,

(06:08):
you know, we have one of the like Cross League
Tip like red cartridge ones just for that kind of
situation as well.

Speaker 3 (06:17):
Yeah, what do you guys have? We were also a
sure family, So the M four was the one I
last Christmas got ray one of the Jiko ones to
finally try because those have been like they come out
and they're sold out. So yeah, so those those look

(06:42):
very similar.

Speaker 4 (06:43):
Oh yeah, we were trying to get our pause on
some of those to chime out to.

Speaker 3 (06:49):
Yeah, so to be continued on that, and then Ortophone
gave us some for our giveaway that we do every year,
and it it looks similar to the shore. It's the
they're vinyl one VNL, so I have a feeling it's
gonna be cool. We'll have to try it out. See

(07:11):
people think, of course we're not going to give you
a used one, but.

Speaker 4 (07:15):
Unless you want one. I mean people sell us things
on the internet all the time or give away use
things including socks and or you know unmentioned. We're not.
We're not. We haven't resulted to few pictures yet, but
this way m So.

Speaker 3 (07:34):
The next thing is the stylist pressure gauges. Have you
had a chance to play with these yet?

Speaker 4 (07:41):
You know what? Not? Really? I also like to keep
everything in a box until I so we can do
the like Lifetime React video because you've had some of
these things and I'm like, oh, let's let's see what
it's like for an absolute rookie. So here's the opened

(08:04):
Oh okay, h yeah, I have not, but I am
excited to try all of these things because I like,
I like shiny things. Thanks.

Speaker 3 (08:20):
So it does have this like little snazzy case mm hmm, and.

Speaker 4 (08:26):
Well and comes with batteries.

Speaker 3 (08:28):
Love it. Yes, Nothing worse.

Speaker 4 (08:31):
Than getting a new thing and then you're like yay,
and then you open it and you're like, oh, go
back to the store.

Speaker 3 (08:38):
So this so we I got these for us and
then Ray being Ray already had one.

Speaker 5 (08:45):
So so I, uh, I tested it out.

Speaker 3 (08:53):
And I to be honest, I'm not like super techy
with my turntable. I'm kind of like set it and
forget it. I probably should not be that way, but
I am. And so with these, uh, it's only twelve
ninety nine, like super cheap, and you just kind of

(09:16):
set your needle onto that little dot and then it
will give you the correct measurement. And so you should
check your cartridge to see what the recommended gauge weight is. Yeah,

(09:38):
very I mean it's very easy. I think for some
people this kind of thing might be intimidating. You're just like,
what is this? Why do I need it?

Speaker 4 (09:47):
Yes? I mean, and it's uh where is my working
put the battery upside down? I mean, this is your
real time, this is how this is how it works.
This is exactly what I'll be doing later anyway too.

(10:11):
Won't we perform calibration if there's a problem, I mean,
whoa isn't that isn't that when you calibrate? Always like
when that's a problem, Oh oh, do you have to
put in like two mavering. Oh yeah, okay too. Uh huh,
that's why I see, which is like I don't know,

(10:31):
kind of just after by names there we don't. Let's
try again, folks. Right, all right, Bat recovered well? And
I mean that's the thing, like, you know, I'm sure
you get asked all the time, Oh yeah, I did it?
You know what what silence are you using? What turntable
are you using? I mean we could ask these kind

(10:53):
of questions all the time, and I mean there is
like tracking force and there is rigonometry involved in all
of that kind of stuff. But correct me, fire, But
you should also kind of understand what weight record you
are playing and the thickness of it and then calibrate

(11:16):
for that as well, because you're I mean, there's there's
funness in the set it and forget it because you're
just like, yeah, I just want to listen to my records.
But yeah, it takes it too another level because you
have to ensure that how many hours of playtime do
you have on that stylist because you're going to start

(11:38):
to change the anatomy of it and like how sharp
it is, but just like what it looks like because
we don't know that they're like very pointy when we
first get them, and then as you use it, it
starts to round out, so you're going to hear more
of the sides of the groove and less of the
like down in the middle. So it's I mean, I

(12:03):
don't know more information is as good. But are you
gonna Are you going to weigh your stylus all the time?

Speaker 3 (12:15):
I don't, And I think you know it may it
may or may not be obvious, but you should do
this while the stylus is on the tone arm. Yes,
you know, you never know now I think yeah, yeah,
and yeah, the tracking force and balancing the tone arm.

(12:35):
You know how much weight is being applied to the
needle on the record, because too much weight whar's the
groove and too little makes it bounce around, So that
can change the sound of your record.

Speaker 4 (12:50):
Yeah, and can sound like distortion in both. I mean,
if you have too much, too much weight on on everything,
it can act actually like slow down the record playing
if you're really really really heavy. And I mean, if
you don't have.

Speaker 6 (13:11):
Anti skate, then a light a light tone arm light
styles situation can jump around a little bit more, potentially
leading to scratching of your record. That's why we always
advocate for a level playing surface and the ability to
change these variables.

Speaker 4 (13:34):
Yeah, I mean it's all. It's always good. I mean,
it's it's it'll be interesting to see if I ah
have the weight that I think it is on my finger,
you know, because you're like, oh, yeah, I know when
this is my records are playing well, or you know

(13:54):
where they're not playing well, you have to make adjustments,
or you're like, oh maybe that maybe this is so
much heavier because this stylus is on its way out.
It is at the end of its life.

Speaker 3 (14:06):
And I think if people are having records pressed too,
it's another like make sure you do this before you
listen to your test pressings. I had someone just recently
have an issue that was similar to what you had
a little while back, where something was playing back differently

(14:27):
and they ended up balancing their tone arm and then
they also use one of the protractors, which is coming
up next. And then they wrote back and said, oh
it's fine.

Speaker 4 (14:42):
I'm sorry, it's me, not you. It's nice when you
get those instead of just it's you or just they
stop responding and you're like, how did it go hello, no, okay, whatever,
I don't want to poke the bear. Yeah. I mean

(15:02):
I think it'll be interesting to see and to look
across and and to look at the different different stylight
that I have and be like, oh I need this
much for this one and this much for this one. Yeah,
and see how good I can get it and be like,
oh that's that's heavy. Oh oh that's way too late. Yeah,

(15:24):
you like you're like you just yeah, Yeah, that's That's
what I'm interested to see, to see if.

Speaker 3 (15:33):
I can actually do it right. Yeah, report back on that.
We'll we'll put it in the comments.

Speaker 4 (15:40):
Record specific carnival games. Take it on the road, okay,
who can bounce their tone? Arm? Well?

Speaker 3 (15:54):
And the next one is a more manual one. It's
the ortophone one.

Speaker 4 (15:57):
Yes, yes, you don't have any books.

Speaker 3 (16:04):
Cute, So we played around with this one too. I
think this one, you know, it's honestly like two dollars
more than the digital one, and I think it's a
it's definitely a little more complicated because it's got an
actual like it's like a little scale.

Speaker 4 (16:19):
Yeah, like a little lever.

Speaker 3 (16:20):
Yeah, And people might be concerned about, you know, putting
your needle directly on these things. But it's fine.

Speaker 4 (16:29):
It's like a little sea saw.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
It is like a little sea saw.

Speaker 4 (16:37):
Yeah, well, and I yeah, I mean putting. I mean
it's just it's a plastic groove. Everyone like you're going
to do it, and this one's just not you know, circular.
So I think that's okay.

Speaker 3 (16:51):
I think it's a little more complicated.

Speaker 4 (16:53):
Oh yeah, and I mean that, like the the concern
I would have is just that because it just it'
stopped up set one two five, Like, I don't know
that that's maybe that's the minimum wait for phone ones,
but maybe I don't know if there's any other ones
that would be lighter than that.

Speaker 3 (17:14):
Yeah, you know, we did it on with our sure,
but maybe yeah, between now and when we share this,
I'll try a red and see.

Speaker 4 (17:22):
Yeah. Yeah, I mean it's you kind of got to
like figure out where to put it on your playback surface.
I mean, obviously don't do it on a record that
you cared about. But yeah, it wasn't it wasn't that bad.
I mean it kind of like slides along the groove
to calibrate itself. So I could see how some potential

(17:46):
audio files might be a little bit not blussed by that,
but I think it's fine. Maybe just make sure that
it's clean, okay, but I mean user friendly definitely. Uh,
it's pretty quick. Also, I mean the digital situation, right,

(18:07):
take a little bit longer because you're like, ohe poop poop. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (18:11):
I guess it depends. Do you prefer toway yourself on
a digital scale or at the doctor's office.

Speaker 4 (18:19):
Your own home with nobody judging good. That's the one important,
you know what, Like I'm sorry, let me take my
shoes off. Oh yeah, I'll take that off too.

Speaker 3 (18:42):
So the next thing we're going to look at are
the alignment tools.

Speaker 4 (18:47):
Keep track of your your stylus hours. Can you do
it by sound? We put this on on January first?

Speaker 2 (18:57):
Yah?

Speaker 3 (18:58):
Yeah, more more of that way? Yeah yeah, what about you?

Speaker 4 (19:04):
Oh my god, On my old turntable, like my mom's
Duel five sixty from nineteen seventy nine, the headshell was
taped on so you couldn't changed it. I didn't learn
how to change the stylist until I was like in
my twenties on a different like when I got my
tech twelves. Yeah, because I was like, oh, this one's

(19:28):
just been on here forever. So I mean I can
hear everyone just being like, oh my god. I mean
it was the record player that I listened to every
like all of my like foundational music on other than
my grandparents went so like, I didn't I didn't change it.

Speaker 3 (19:44):
Ever, Yeah, yeah, I need to upgrade the one. On
this one, it's you can you can tell like it's
starting to sound not so great.

Speaker 4 (19:54):
So yeah, the highs get a little I don't know,
you have a little bit more sibilance where you didn't before.
I mean, and that's the thing like having such like
a having a huge record collection is hard sometimes to
understand when things are wearing right. So if it's not pleasing,

(20:16):
I guess that's that's the time to consider. I'd like
give everything a good clean and then be like, oh
maybe it's time.

Speaker 3 (20:22):
Yeah thirty years later.

Speaker 4 (20:25):
Yeah, so just a book also because I was like,
why are you taking bookmark? Wait?

Speaker 3 (20:34):
Wait their record Nerds bookmark exactly for your women in
vinyl book. So, I mean these are essentially the same
ones from Turntable Lab. And it has a mirror finish
so you can look at yourself while you're doing it.
And the other one is it's kind of bored.

Speaker 4 (21:02):
Things. So that's good. I find the mirror a little
hard to do things on.

Speaker 3 (21:09):
Yeah, but the thing with the.

Speaker 7 (21:14):
Thing with these is like luckily, like the the current
table lab one has directions on the back, which is
nice because if you're going to delve into using more
calibration type things, this exactly looks like a.

Speaker 4 (21:33):
Bookmark leve you order phone. But this doesn't help the
nube to understand what this is for. So that is
kind of a bummer because you don't you want to
arm people with more knowledge, not less. But so this
one So this is the alignment pro tractor. This device
allows the proper setting a cartridge offset and overhand. Again,

(21:58):
those are two terms that you might not know, but
we can teach you about them. It's no problem. So
the way that you want to use this is to
place it on the turntable spindle, which is like the
middle where you put like their record is in the middle.
Move move the protractor and the arm so that the
stylus is directly above point A. So don't do this

(22:22):
with a record on your turntable. You want to do
this on your slip mat or your naked turntable. If
that's the way that you choose. Yeah, exactly, but yeah,
don't put it on a record. Make sure that you're
just doing it on your playback service. Move the protractor
until the cross lines are parallel to the sides of

(22:42):
the cartridge. So you want your cartridge to be parallel,
not perpendicular.

Speaker 3 (22:49):
You can see because I'm blown out, but yeah, we'll
add some photos of this in the video so you
can see it.

Speaker 4 (22:56):
Yeah, So then you move, Yeah, move the protractor so
the cross lines are parallel, and then repeat steps two
and three above point B. If the angle noted at
point B is not the same as the angle at
point A, then move the cartridge forward or backward. And
so that's when you're going to have to adjust the
screws on your tone arm that hold the cartridge. And

(23:21):
then yeah, move it backward or forward, and twist the
cartridge to bring to the same angle at both and B.
So I mean that can be sometimes indicated if you're
hearing like a stereo record, and you're hearing more of
one sound than of another sound like maybe more guitar,
and you're not hearing a lot of vocal or in

(23:42):
a mono record, you're only hearing one channel you're not
hearing the other channel because you should be hearing the
same sounds out of both speakers. Is there another indication
that you can think of, Jim, or you would do
like a protractory type thing.

Speaker 3 (23:57):
No, I mean I think that really explains it. I
mean this is a very easy one to test, maybe
not as easy to fix because it's kind of fiddlely
do little screws.

Speaker 4 (24:08):
But little Yeah. Yeah, you're going to need your like
eyeglasses screwdriver kit, little tiny ones to make these adjustments.
And that's okay. Yeah, yeah, I mean.

Speaker 3 (24:23):
It's nice that that's all on the back of this
ruler too.

Speaker 4 (24:26):
That's great.

Speaker 3 (24:27):
Yeah, that's fantastic totally.

Speaker 4 (24:31):
Because that was going to be my one thing where
I'm just like, well, it's great, but you know the
other I guess the other thing is, yeah, like this
one has like a A and a B, so it's like, oh,
do it here and do it here and make it this.
But you don't have any of that indication on this one.

Speaker 3 (24:47):
So yeah, and these aren't very I mean the turntable
lab one, which is the Mirriord finished one, it's twenty
seven to ninety. The one from Ortophone is thirteen ninety five. So,
I mean, I feel like for the instructions, you know,
the turntable lab, it's great. Yeah, I do wish the

(25:14):
surface wasn't mirrored, but yeah.

Speaker 4 (25:17):
Same, But I mean then that way you can kind
of you can look.

Speaker 3 (25:20):
I guess, yeah, exactly, I guess that. Yeah, makes sense
that that's the point.

Speaker 4 (25:24):
A bit better. So, I mean, so far the turntable
lab things have all been ten out of ten. Really yeah, yeah,
sponsor the show love but yeah, I mean that's that's
kind of there. This this one, for me will be

(25:45):
the interesting experiment. This afternoon, I'll grab some footage of
me fumbling for everyone's serment so that we can put
it in there, because why not. I'm I'm here for
the jokes always.

Speaker 3 (26:03):
So the next thing that, uh, I guess we could
talk about our headphones.

Speaker 4 (26:12):
Yeah, so yeah, what we have so many.

Speaker 3 (26:19):
Well to start, shout out to Audio Technical podcast sponsor,
we love these headphones. We also love our microphones that
we use. Yeah, yeah, and this it has such a
nice long chord, very.

Speaker 4 (26:41):
Long, and.

Speaker 3 (26:44):
Also love that.

Speaker 4 (26:48):
Yes, if you want to play skip rope while you're
listening to they got you started them? Yes, but also
sometimes It is really love protective case so you can
put your jams in and keep them dust free, which
is great as well. They filed up really nicely. The

(27:12):
cups are really comfortable, even for somebody with giant plugs.
I have no trouble with these. The headband is really comfortable,
allows for people with the giant brains to enjoy their
head again like me.

Speaker 3 (27:28):
Yeah, I mean, because people don't might not realize what
we spend a couple hours chatting whenever we do these things,
and they need to be comfortable and they are, yes.

Speaker 4 (27:38):
Yeah, and they fold down nicely so you can travel
with them. They do extend if you have you know,
a lot of brain space. I yeah, I have no
complaints about these. They're they're really great. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (27:55):
And for professional headphones, they're the professional monitor headphones at
h M fifty X and they are one hundred and
forty nine ninety nine. Honestly, I don't think that's that bad.

Speaker 4 (28:06):
No, with every penny, I mean yeah, for people that's
much amount of time in headphones. I do use these
sometimes for mastering as well for critical listening, so I
have I have zero complaints with these. I really really
love them. Thank you very much audio chechnica.

Speaker 3 (28:25):
Yeah, and and these are obviously they're wired, which you
know is great. And then the next ones we're going
to talk about are from our dear friends at Marshall. Yes,
so these are brand new. They just came out and
they are the Monitor threes and I need a sure.

(28:48):
They come in this really pretty case. They have seventy
hours of playable or seventy hours of playtime with active
noise cancelation, one hundred hours without and quick charge fifteen
minutes gives twelve hours of playtime.

Speaker 4 (29:06):
Yeah, which is great. I haven't tried these ones yet
because I wanted everybody to see this really great box.

Speaker 3 (29:13):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (29:15):
Yeah, the audiotechnical ones don't have noise canceling, nor should
they because there's studio headphones shouldn't have a lot of
ambient noise around you. Anyway, these are really great. Yeah, yeah,
I means yeah, I mean it's got to.

Speaker 3 (29:35):
Be the Yeah, velvet clamshell case.

Speaker 4 (29:41):
Double it as a clutch if you want to be.

Speaker 3 (29:45):
Marshall is also a sponsor, but we love them regardless.
When we get to the next part on speakers, I
just can't say enough good things totally.

Speaker 4 (29:53):
So you've got a nice little USBC two. See so
glad that we finally joined the universe on their charging. Okay,
what else we got? So please note download the Marshall
Bluetooth app and update your headphone firm where it's always

(30:15):
a good note. And that's good too, saying get down here.
We've got tables, we have, we have another. You've got
five eight the USPC there too, have a little guide

(30:37):
in case you like to read stuff legal.

Speaker 3 (30:42):
And the Marshall apps really easy to use. You can
hook up all your Bluetooth stuff to it. That's Marshall,
So it's really easy to connect with your devices.

Speaker 4 (30:53):
There's one button to to deal with, which is nice. Yeah.
Oh you can use it for your your telephone calls too.
That's cute. Sorry, I can't talk. I'm on the phone
with Marshall ing all right, we'll see. I mean Marshall

(31:16):
just doesn't do anything esthetically that makes me upset.

Speaker 3 (31:20):
You know, I know, everything packed so well, it's all
branded so well yeah.

Speaker 4 (31:26):
Yeah, like the nice gold accents. Those are nice. All right,
don't be a dummy. Take out the your CUF. Make
sure that you're comfortable. Okay, let's let's try the comfort test.
Here for somebody with plex. Oh yeah, that's great.

Speaker 3 (31:46):
Those are cushy mm hmm. And you probably she probably
can't hear me while she's.

Speaker 4 (31:51):
Trying what I can't because I don't have the can
the noise inslational. But that is great. Actually a nice band,
I kind of I really like the like little speaker wire.

Speaker 3 (32:11):
Yeah, actually you're cute.

Speaker 4 (32:15):
Yeah, these are great. I'm still Yeah, I love having
hands free, like a non wired kind of deal for
when I go to the gym, because otherwise I'll just
egregiously hurt myself as we have addressed wires. Yeah, I
mean I'll report back on playtime and things. But this

(32:36):
is great.

Speaker 3 (32:37):
Yeah, they're three nineteen ninety nine, so their little priceier.
There are other models like Monitor two's, but yeah, definitely recommend.
I mean they'll last you forever, so it's worth it.

Speaker 4 (32:52):
We'll put this to the test, absolutely, and we would
let you know, and I'm sure Marshall would want us
to let them know.

Speaker 3 (33:00):
Oh yeah, this is great.

Speaker 4 (33:02):
I just like I want to live in red velvet.

Speaker 3 (33:06):
I know, I really love the case.

Speaker 4 (33:08):
Yeah great, just needs like a little strap and you
can absolutely make it a clutch. But yeah, put all
your things in there. Cute. Yeah, awesome. Oh see, and
it's like one of those ones where you like, there's
a couple of ways to do it so you can
put it back and you're not like, oh, not able

(33:29):
to put it back. That happens to me all the time. Cool.
All right, great job, Marshall, Thank you. Right, I'm gonna
put this over all right the wall.

Speaker 3 (33:45):
We're talking, Marshall. Let's get into speakers. Yeah, so these
are Bluetooth speakers.

Speaker 4 (33:52):
I'm not talking four twelves right now.

Speaker 3 (33:54):
Yeah, we're talking portable Bluetooth speakers. You know, I think
we all have different ones that we use for our
setups at home that are wired that could get into
an entire other conversation. We are working on a resource
that talks about some of our favorite things. So for example, Ryan,

(34:18):
I have some clip speakers that we use on our
main setup, and then I have some just mica booked
like bookshelf speakers that we're fine in my office.

Speaker 4 (34:29):
Yeah, I have clips for my studio.

Speaker 3 (34:32):
N Yeah, and that just you know, varies based on
your price point. So this next one, this Bluetooth speaker
is the.

Speaker 4 (34:46):
Three Yes.

Speaker 8 (34:49):
Yeah, established nineteen sixty two mm hm, oh my god, cute.
Hello love that?

Speaker 4 (35:04):
All right? All right, not all speakers are created equal.
It's true, thirty two hours of portable playtime, true stereophonic
three sixty sound, and a rugged exterior, my dustin waterproof,

(35:26):
built in microphone, Bluetooth thready. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (35:30):
If you see any of Marshall's social media or posts
on this, like they show them underwater. They are super light,
really easy to carry around and truly, like I'm again
not saying this because they're a sponsor of Women in Vinyl,
but like the sound on these things. Literally every single
person who tries one is like they cannot believe how

(35:53):
good the sound is. For how small this is.

Speaker 4 (35:56):
Yeah, yeah, I mean it's it's cute because it looks
like a little martial head too, which I like. Yeah. Yes,
it's like uh one and a half pounds. Yeah, I
mean it's like six inches, very small and very portable,

(36:16):
waterproof in your gothroom listening to the Women in Vinyl podcast.

Speaker 3 (36:20):
Yeah yeah, with thirty two plus hours of laytime, and
it's too eighty nine ninety nine I believe.

Speaker 4 (36:28):
Yeah, yeah, Charge Cord, Oh what kind of Turkey bard
is it? It looks to me like lightning. Let's see
SURVEYSS well USBC T see yay power things all the same.

Speaker 3 (36:52):
Actually it looks like they might be last. It looks
it looks like I was looking at a different currency.

Speaker 4 (36:59):
Oh Canadian probably looks.

Speaker 3 (37:02):
Like it's one sixty nine ninety nine even better US dollars.

Speaker 4 (37:06):
So yeah, this is gonna this is going to thump.

Speaker 3 (37:13):
It's going to be great, And I did so. When
I was at record store day Camp, I got this
little guy. It's a little Crosley one.

Speaker 4 (37:24):
I love the brand. I mean the again, the aesthetic
is very cool. I love that fifties.

Speaker 3 (37:30):
And honestly, like that's why I wanted it so bad.
Like besides black, this like t lec foam color is
like my other favorite color. And this actually is in
my bathroom currently when I'm getting ready in the morning,
I use it. I will say, like sound quality, it's
definitely more aesthetic. The sound quality is fine, but when

(37:55):
you know you're comparing it to the Marshall, the Marshal's
definitely better for sound. Better for like you're in the
house cleaning and you want to turn up your music.
I would use the Marshall, but but this guy does
the trick as well.

Speaker 4 (38:14):
He's cute. He's cute. I love that.

Speaker 3 (38:20):
Well, while you're unboxing the big one, that's what you said,
I want to look up how much the little Crosley is.

Speaker 4 (38:29):
This is the stand More three.

Speaker 3 (38:35):
He's girthy well, and so while Robin's opening that price
point two speaks for itself. This little Crosley Piper portable
Bluetooth is like twenty bucks.

Speaker 4 (38:47):
So that's great. Yeah, I mean, like a true shout
out is necessary for Crossley to make things affordable and
possible for people. Yeah, get you into something so that
you can, you know, fully explore what you're excited about.

Speaker 3 (39:09):
Presley has also been making some new turntables. They looked
actually very similar to the twelve hundreds and they had
some record store a camp. So while they're not a
sponsor yet, we would love to try out those turntables
and give some feedback on what they're like, considering Rob

(39:30):
and I are both twelve hundred users, so yeah, not
a sponsor, but get at us.

Speaker 4 (39:41):
This is beautiful. Yes, this is as somebody who like
played immercials stacked like a four twelve. I mean I
love all of this, like aesthetically who doesn't love a wall.

Speaker 3 (39:56):
Of Marshall caps tht yes, like.

Speaker 4 (39:59):
Get into this bronze detail. Wow we yea stunning you go.
Here's the top so beautiful. RCA is at the back,
not just a Bluetoothye. You can actually, you know, put
actual records through this, which is great. Nobody has RS

(40:20):
on anything ever. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (40:23):
Well, and the cool thing with their Bluetooth speakers too
is if you do have a Bluetooth turntable, you can listen.

Speaker 4 (40:29):
Yeah. Yeah, that's great. And you can't I mean, it's
got to face trouble, so you can actually you know,
customize your settings for your little your little ears, little
ac power, I mean doesn't have a doesn't have a

(40:52):
ground but that's okay. I was appreciated three.

Speaker 3 (40:56):
Prone and what is this one?

Speaker 4 (40:59):
This is the stre More right, yeah, this is the stand.

Speaker 3 (41:03):
More stand More and yeah yeah, so the stand More
two is about three nineteen if you get it through Amazon,
it looks like four fifty on Marshall's site. Again amazing.

(41:27):
You will never need another home speaker.

Speaker 4 (41:29):
Yeah, I mean, and they don't do anything half measures, no,
and I love that they like really are inclusive with
their languages here too.

Speaker 3 (41:39):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 4 (41:41):
That's great.

Speaker 3 (41:44):
Yeah, I have it here behind me. I use it
all the time.

Speaker 4 (41:49):
This is I mean even the paper quality as somebody
that is looking for.

Speaker 3 (41:55):
It's true.

Speaker 4 (41:56):
I love that they include people that have tattoos on
all of their mind.

Speaker 3 (42:01):
It's like that they're the perfect match.

Speaker 4 (42:03):
I'm so true.

Speaker 3 (42:06):
Yeah, I love them so.

Speaker 4 (42:09):
Everything that they have allowed us to do. And for
those of you not familiar with what Marshall has helped
women in Vinyl do, but they are. They have helped
create the scholarship to send humans to Berkeley College of Music.
They have helped to create paid internships. What else have

(42:30):
they helped to finance? Jen They helped with the book two.

Speaker 3 (42:33):
Yeah, I mean they've helped with so much. I mean,
they really are allowing us to do a lot of
the things that fulfill our mission. And they truly, like,
they didn't ask for us to talk about this. They
want it to be about women and Vinyl and what
we're trying to do. But because of how kind and
wonderful they all are, we love to shout them out

(42:55):
and share really the awesome things they do.

Speaker 4 (42:59):
And they didn't have to share this with me either,
but they did. And I didn't even really know they
just like showed up in my house. Did what rock
and roll Christmas is happening?

Speaker 3 (43:09):
Right?

Speaker 4 (43:10):
I picked up the box and I was like, oh
my god, what body party there? But yeah, I mean,
if this is what it feels like to be an influencer,
like I'm here for it. Thank you, but thank you Marshall.
This is so generous and kind or a little rock
and roller that had to sell her for twelve Marshall

(43:30):
stack to finance her mastering career. This is a nice
little revisit to why I love that, like the.

Speaker 9 (43:39):
Tolex on the come on, like I know, it's just
like having my cab back and that is great, but
just like a little smaller so it's not actually one
hundred and twenty two hundred pounds to carry around us
and downstairs.

Speaker 3 (43:52):
Yeah, we were in Milton Keynes and we got to
take a tour and so I'll put a link to
those photos in the comments too.

Speaker 4 (44:01):
That's awesome. But yeah, I mean, if you have a
Bluetooth speaker that you like, or a home speaker situation
that you want us to talk about, let us know
what other do you have, like tower speakers that you
guys have in your house yet.

Speaker 3 (44:18):
For our turntables. Just the clips are floor speakers, they're
vintage ones. Those are the main ones that we use
on the big setup. Ray's got a whole other situation
happening his DJ.

Speaker 4 (44:32):
Office, so as we do. Yeah, I have Sony CT
three hundreds. I think that are tower speakers that are like, yeah,
three feet tall or four feet tall that I've been
holling around my life. They were my mom's from I
think eighty eight or eighty nine. So yeah, like main

(44:55):
listening room ones. But yeah, I mean this is this
is going to go in the kitchen, and I'm excited
about that.

Speaker 3 (45:05):
And I mean I think, you know, we could talk
about turntables and get into that. I think what we
would like to probably do instead is do some videos
on how to set up your turntable, maybe a couple
of different kinds like a belt drive, direct drive. We
could talk about those kinds of things, but we would
be here with you for hours, So that's a whole
that's a that's another day. And if anyone has turntables

(45:27):
that they want us to try out.

Speaker 4 (45:30):
At us, Yeah, we're going to talk about RCAs for connectors,
gold tip versus non gold tip. Yeah, branded cables and
all that kind of stuff, and like talk to you
about phono preamps and why or if you need it.

Speaker 8 (45:54):
Yes, of like what I just said, if you were
receiver doesn't have an RCA, then you're gonna need one.

Speaker 4 (46:03):
Yes. If you want sweet Sweet records, you're gonna have
to make that adaptation. So yeah, But also in the comments,
let us know what what do you listen on? What? What?
What is your way of doing things? Because we won't
want to inquiring guys want to know.

Speaker 3 (46:19):
Yeah, we also want to know what you want to
see because now that we are stepping into this video land,
twenty twenty five brings a whole world of possibilities. So yeah,
comment below and let us know.

Speaker 2 (46:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (46:35):
Well, hello, So Robin and I saw there are two
different things. I got us a record pie flattener cool
and I got Robin. I had to Yeah.

Speaker 4 (46:59):
I mean so many people have asked me about it
over the years that I'm like, I don't know, my God,
especially because it's all a Japanese. It's like, I have
no idea what I'm doing. This is going to be
so fun.

Speaker 3 (47:15):
So it's a little at home cutter, and I mean,
what better person to try it than a lathe cutter
is already cut records at home, I might as well
do it on my living in my living room too.
So let's dig in on this toy and see.

Speaker 4 (47:33):
Yeah, so I love immediately that it says like right
off the top, so that there is no confusion low fi. Yes,
that your expectations accordingly, because you're not going to get
five five stereo sound out of this slow guy. I mean,

(47:55):
I don't even you got to give him a name,
oh my god, I.

Speaker 3 (47:58):
Mean yeah, it's called the ez Easy record Maker Toy
Kit Instant Vinyl Cutter by Gekkin and it's one hundred
and fifty nine ninety five. So let's see.

Speaker 4 (48:12):
Oh wow, okay, oh wow, oh wow? All right. I
mean I feel like his name needs to be Monaka
because apparently that person is called the Little Glee Monster.

(48:34):
I love it. Okay. Oh so this is like a
little magazine that's cute. I mean again, all in Japanese,
so who knows, maybe me? Maybe? Yeah, okay, So Jeff
Mills and Yuris Suzuki are in oh okay, so it

(48:58):
looks like there's there the dudes they made it.

Speaker 3 (49:01):
Maybe amazing or this is them doing it cute.

Speaker 4 (49:06):
I guess, like, if this is a Japanese magazine, I
should read it backwards. So it was maybe featured in
Record Stored a japan twenty two Love it. This looks
like covers of Japanese hi fi magazine. Maybe so it's
got turntables speakers. Maybe from the nineteen seventies. Oh yeah, okay, yeah,

(49:32):
from nineteen seventy.

Speaker 3 (49:34):
I pulled up a little thing here that says it's
the ultimate science project for vinyl nerds. Designed with universal
usability in mind, the compact unit has a simple interface
and is able to cut blank vinyl discs and play
them back instantly.

Speaker 4 (49:50):
Yeah, because I'm it's a good thing that I have
a little bit of aptitude for this. Maybe because this
is the construction. The instruction. Uh, it's okay, we're gonna
We're gonna do it. It's gonna be great, all right.

Speaker 3 (50:04):
Yeah, So there is an instruction manual that can be
found online. Apparently let me click this.

Speaker 4 (50:11):
Oh wow, Yeah, there's a lot of putting together.

Speaker 3 (50:14):
Cool, So why don't you show us the parts and
then when you experiment, I will film it, yeah, and
then we will insert that in because that's what I
did with the record pie as well.

Speaker 4 (50:28):
They do they do you talk about, you know, there's
just amazing they've got. It's annoyment. I'm not sure which
one it's direct cutting at king Seki Chai Dai Studio

(50:49):
obviously in Japan. Not sure what city though, they've got
the looks like the Nightingale a head from or maybe
that's West tex m not sure. Uh yeah, that looks
like a WESTC said, that's cool. Oh, oh my god,

(51:12):
I love this, Oh my god, I love this so much.
It's like all of the all of the iterations. Yeah,
from the nineteen forties on.

Speaker 3 (51:23):
That's amazing. That booklet is great and itself.

Speaker 4 (51:27):
Yeah, this is amazing. I would yeah, I.

Speaker 3 (51:29):
Mean honestly for the price too, like worth giving it
a shot. I mean the instructions I found online there
are six pages of just putting it together. So we
won't we won't keep you all for that.

Speaker 4 (51:45):
So you got like tiny labels to put your whatever
little jam you cut. I mean, so this is effectively
like a bootlegging machine, which I I a love. Also,
here's your little sleeves, so you get like little sleeves
that you can what you're record saying with like, Wow,
that's cool. Cut and fold your jackets. All right, Sorry

(52:09):
for getting absorbed by the magazine. Let's let's get into it. Mhm.
I mean I kind of feel like I should have
waited for Christmas. But this is just the ct okay already, okay,
bay of parts.

Speaker 3 (52:28):
All right.

Speaker 4 (52:29):
So it's like a silence in here. We have like
the like the turntable mechanism. That's what we got. Okay,
here's the playback stylist. All right, this is well all right,
all right, all right, m yeah. Circuit board.

Speaker 3 (52:55):
Wow, it says that it includes and.

Speaker 4 (53:00):
Assimbly you can change the five. Oh cool, that's the
speed selector. Sorry, what were you going to say?

Speaker 3 (53:10):
I found something that says the kit includes an assembly
kit with quote multiple pieces, two cutting needles, ten blank
five inch records, five white and five black. That's cool,
a center label sticker sheet, a magazine in Japanese, one
USB power cable, an audio plug, a forty five adapter,

(53:34):
and a screw on record clamp. There you go.

Speaker 4 (53:38):
So this is very much like like the old crink
cup record players too. So that's like the where the
little replicator is. That's the that's what is vibrating of
the cutting needle, and then there you go play back
stylists and USB to rip your favorite songs into lofa. Okay,

(54:08):
responds all right, so here's the actual and it's actually
fun because I have five inch blanks. So this does
not have to end with we can't keep party going.
We need somebody to write like a three minute women

(54:32):
in vinyl jingle.

Speaker 3 (54:34):
Oh my god, please someone please do that.

Speaker 4 (54:40):
Put it in the store. Okay, Oh, I think there's
more in here. Oh jeez, Oh, this is probably where
the record records are. Yep, that's exactly what they're I mean,
so efficient. I love it. Okay, so arguable cute. Right,

(55:06):
so I'm guessing, all well, I'm gonna have to put
all the electronics together underneath there to give you a
little boom slip mat. So that's cute. Here's the records mhm,

(55:29):
nicely separated by tissue so that they don't get scratched.
I want to they have little coatings on them like
my blanks. Eh, Survey says, oh, individually yet Okay, no
coding on the record that I can see. No, So

(55:52):
I think you just it's just like take them out
of the tissue and.

Speaker 3 (55:55):
Go mm hmm. There very cool.

Speaker 4 (56:03):
Oh that's black. Here's the whitest one. Mm hmm. I
mean they're probably like maybe like twenty five grounds maybe

(56:25):
do you feel kind of like but that's that's cool.
Oh yeah, okay, so here's the like go back.

Speaker 3 (56:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (56:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (56:36):
You should do like a time lapse like putting it
all together, so that you can report on how hard
it is to put together. I mean it looks pretty,
it's very intense.

Speaker 4 (56:50):
I mean this looks like the like the record waight,
so like you screw it down, so that's like the
truck that holds the record to the surface so it
doesn't like just spin. Yeah, I mean I'm not sure. Okay,

(57:13):
so that's that obviously like turns something, but I'm not
sure what. Uh. Yeah, so that's their extra style. Its

(57:37):
bag up screws. You always need Brandon bgup screws. Oh,
this is like the little so this is the little
speaker that will go in there. H So that's sure.
You've got like a wires obviously, so that will plug

(57:57):
into here and that will be the replicator. I can.
I have one of my granddad's old uh suitcase record
players that's color covered in alligator skin. Yeah, and it's
got a crank and it's the same same kind of

(58:18):
replicator kind of situation, so it's got like a little
rubber ring and then okay, yeah, I mean I'm definitely
gonna have to ask for some help on this, I'm sure.
But it's very exciting.

Speaker 3 (58:37):
I mean, yes, at also a.

Speaker 4 (58:39):
Timer because that might be embarrassing, but uh yeah, I
mean we can do a side by side of like
like what this is and what my what the parts
are on my lip too?

Speaker 3 (58:51):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (58:52):
This?

Speaker 3 (58:54):
Yeah, so we'll share that with the episode because I
can't wait to hear what Robin thinks I had. I mean,
it was like a no brainer.

Speaker 4 (59:07):
I love this. I'm so excited, especially because so many
people have asked for my there like oh well I
could just do it at home.

Speaker 3 (59:14):
I'm like you could, how you can?

Speaker 4 (59:19):
We will say go ahead, you know how it goes,
because yeah, I mean it's uh I want to try.
I want to see if there's like an Edison to
like a Edison too kind.

Speaker 3 (59:35):
Of misi yeah, yeah, kind of explore how that goes.

Speaker 4 (59:40):
My friend Eric Warner in Toronto has an Edison cylinder
project where he put King gizzard on to a cylinder.
So because they have open so.

Speaker 3 (59:52):
It feels appropriate.

Speaker 4 (59:53):
Yeah, go ahead bootleg her stuff that I think that
would it would be cool to just like understand how
that technology also works. Yes, thank you, This is so exciting.
This is good.

Speaker 3 (01:00:08):
I can't wait.

Speaker 4 (01:00:09):
Yeah, me too. What will we do? What do I bulet?

Speaker 3 (01:00:15):
I know?

Speaker 4 (01:00:16):
Yeah, I feel like it has to be Metallica. Like
I feel like it's gonna bootleg anything. I feel like
that's the way right.

Speaker 3 (01:00:26):
I mean, I'm not an employee if there's currently at furnace, so,
but in keeping with.

Speaker 4 (01:00:32):
Our napster or like the Napster generation, Yeah, so we've
been dying to try out a flattener.

Speaker 3 (01:00:42):
These are pretty pricey, which is why Robin's cutting and
we tried one of these. That's the record pie. There
are a ton of videos on YouTube about this. It. Yeah,
it felt a little complicated to get started. There's an
app there's uh a little like heater part that. So,

(01:01:03):
first of all, it's very heavy, it's not it doesn't
appear heavy right now because I took the heavy part out.
It is currently flattening a Janet record. So I will
put some video in here, but it comes with what
looks like like a turntable essentially, and you screw off

(01:01:26):
the top and there's two really heavy weights, and you
put one of the weights down, you put the like
a felt slip mat, then the record, and then do
the same thing with another slip mat and heavy weight
on the top. Screw it together, and then you put
it in here, which essentially is like a pizza warmer. Yeah,

(01:01:53):
so when it's in there, you just zip it up
and then it has like wires that come out, so
this thing plugs it in to the wall, and then
there's another thing that has the temperature on it, and
you set those things and let it bake for two hours,
which seems scary. We have tried it on a couple
different records. The first one we did had just like

(01:02:17):
your typical warp and it worked. The second one was
a Dila record that Ray had that arrived with like
almost like a lump in it. It was like real wonky,
and I think he's done it twice now with that one,
and it hasn't fully fixed it, but it's definitely better.
And so the last one that I'm trying is a

(01:02:39):
Janet record that just has kind of your typical warp
to try to see if it will work again. That
one's also clear vinyl. I doubt there will be any difference,
but we'll see. So that one is actually in there now,
so I haven't taken it out yet. So after this
all in sort of video of how that went, but

(01:03:01):
it's three forty nine ninety nine so it's pricey. We'll
actually insert a little video here. But so there's also
one called the Vinyl flat which I wanted to try.
Email them, they never got back to me.

Speaker 4 (01:03:20):
And it's got like fly like nuts that you put
down right that it's kind of like a yeah yeah,
And they.

Speaker 3 (01:03:29):
They look like very small operation, like maybe a Kickstarter
type thing that's turned into selling them. Those are one
hundred and forty nine ninety nine, so I might at
some point when I try those, but we're a nonprofit.

Speaker 4 (01:03:45):
And I mean, yeah, it's uh, there's lots of different
ways to flatwards sometimes or not at all. Yeah, because
depending on how you've calibrated your tone arm, sometimes you're
system can ride that wave and it's no problem. Yeah,
there was there was a copy of U Graceland a

(01:04:07):
record land that had like a vicious, vicious warp in it,
and I would when people would come in and talk
about warp, so I would be like like this one
and I would put it done and they were like,
oh whoa, and it was fine and they're like what
and I was like, it's a Tech twelve you just
it's fine, Like, yeah, it's so fine, and.

Speaker 3 (01:04:29):
I did, and that it is. It's interesting because like
we have a VPI as our main one, and that
one you can really see it, you know, and when
I play it on this one, it definitely isn't as bad.
I mean, you can still see the warp, but I
don't think it affects it as much.

Speaker 4 (01:04:45):
Yeah, and you can definitely see where it's coming. But
the silence is just like wow, like does it And
it's fine? But yeah, that's always my that's always me.
I'm like, is it a playable warp though, because like
if it plays and you're not watching it, like, can
you can you hear the difference? Right?

Speaker 3 (01:05:08):
The only the only time that I've actually noticed like
a significant sound difference was when I was playing all
of my records in alphabetical order during COVID and I
got to the Boris record that had it was off
center and so which you know, again, people might not

(01:05:29):
know that that's from an off like a stamper that
is off center. And so there was such bad needle
sway that I was just like what am I listening to?
It was like ooo, and I have a video of
that too. You can actually see it, like crazy, it's
the worst I've ever seen.

Speaker 4 (01:05:50):
Yeah, yeah, I mean it's it's funny because like even
if you have like a spindle hole that is like
not completely uh symmetrical too, like you can get you
can get drift, which is I mean sometimes it's kind
of cool and you can exacerbate it with like playing
with your tracking too, just to make it more psychedelic.

Speaker 3 (01:06:12):
But yeah, it depends what you're going for.

Speaker 4 (01:06:16):
Yeah, totally. But again it's like one of those things
that you actually can't do anything about, Like it's no
amount of flattening is going to change you know, a
wrong spindle.

Speaker 3 (01:06:26):
So yeah, yeah, and that's why I thought, yeah we
should mention just in case anybody doesn't know that.

Speaker 4 (01:06:32):
Yeah, it's knowing what the what the defect is to
be able to fix it, because yeah, you've got if
you've got something like that, you're I'm sorry. Yeah, Collectors
at that point.

Speaker 3 (01:06:49):
Yeah, well, I think I think the last thing for
today is just, uh, how you travel with your records,
because part of our giveaway is going to be are
wonderful friends at Selector.

Speaker 4 (01:07:02):
Yeah a Selector. I have my OG one right here
that I mean does it does the business and it's
been all over the place. I mean it's getting it's
where for sure. But we've had these now for three.

Speaker 3 (01:07:23):
Years yeah, I mean like twenty twenty one.

Speaker 4 (01:07:27):
Yeah, three years. Yeah, so I mean this one has
been yeah, to the States, overseas. It's it's done the business.
That's the one that I we also I also have
a black one. I don't have one of the forty
five ones, which I'm also kind of excited about getting.

(01:07:49):
It's in the budget for next year. That's the one
that I usually use if I'm going to oh yeah cute.

Speaker 3 (01:07:57):
Yeah, so someone's gonna get this as part of our holiday.

Speaker 4 (01:08:02):
Look at it. It's it's goth Christmas colors. Yeah, I
have that one. And then I also have this is
a throwback. I don't even know if they make this anymore.

Speaker 3 (01:08:22):
But.

Speaker 4 (01:08:23):
This was my DJ.

Speaker 3 (01:08:26):
Yes, that one was.

Speaker 4 (01:08:29):
I mean, this one's pretty substantial. Yeah, so what We're
said handles. It's also a backpack because yeah, that kind
of situation. This one is pretty good because you can
put so much stuff in it and it's got Oh
my god, there's a whole bunch of records in here.

(01:08:50):
That's funny.

Speaker 5 (01:08:52):
It's fine with our very first. I wrote that single
that we list that was featured Haley and the Crushers
Church Flag Amazing. Yeah, I mean I think I can
fit like fifty We're more in here. Yeah, it's uh

(01:09:19):
one of the ones that I take along to like
my speaking gigs when I'm taking I'm talking about records,
so I can like carry stampers and stuff in it
as well because it's so robust. Yeah, but yeah, my
Selector is like the International Travel one and then yeah, make.

Speaker 3 (01:09:39):
Sure big isn't And they say they hold about thirty
twelve inches and they are fifty nine eight fifty one
depending on the different types, and you can get them
from your local record store too. The forty five to
one holds forty singles and there's forty five fifty. But

(01:10:03):
they did just come out with the Selector worker bag
for djaying, which is super cool. I'd love to try
one of those that holds fifty and it's one hundred
and twenty nine dollars.

Speaker 4 (01:10:17):
Yeah, that was kind of where I was like, oh,
like I have my my sugar bag, or now that
there's this new Selector bag, like that would be kind
of the because I broke one of the clips, right,
sugar bag, so only when backpack strap works.

Speaker 3 (01:10:32):
Oh yeah yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:10:35):
Which makes it hard to backpack them. But yeah, I
mean Selector has been a long time friend of the podcast.
Yeah yeah, good buds.

Speaker 3 (01:10:51):
Can't recommend them enough. Yeah, like Robin said, they're amazing
for travel and they've held up really great.

Speaker 4 (01:10:58):
Yeah, so yeah, yeah mine have definitely definitely done the
business for sure on planes and cars, buses, all the things,
and kept records immaculate. Yeah yeah, I took I took
my black one too when we went to when I
went to the UK last year and trips around with

(01:11:20):
it as my like every day run around bag just
in case I ran across a record store.

Speaker 3 (01:11:24):
Also never know.

Speaker 4 (01:11:28):
All the way up the Eiffel Tower and back like,
but it definitely did the did the job. So we
love the select Or.

Speaker 3 (01:11:38):
