This is so cool! Seeing facial expressions and some of the environment you guys are in really adds a great deal to the experience. The side-by-side presentation makes for a nice image: Bill as a cross between Edward R. Murrow and Jean Shepherd, and Pete as a Zeus-like sage.
ReplyDeleteI hope you keep doing these video versions. If there's any camera shyness, that will quickly fade, just as mic shyness does. 73, Todd K7TFC
Video is great! Keep them coming, please.
