Stop Using AirPods on Zoom and Podcasts. (Jaw-Dropping Sound Test!)

This episode will finally convince you to stop showing up to Zoom calls or podcasts with AirPods as your mic input . (It's fine for output.) For emotional association and any appeal from a sales or marketing perspective, sound is far more important in the brain than visuals or words. We process sound 10x faster than the blink of an eye. 95% of purchase decisions are EMOTIONAL, 5% rational (see Instagram graphic) . Hear my three comparison recordings between Airpods, computer speaker, and Shure SM7B. Most of the episode is with my Shure SM7B mic as usual. However on this one I did NOT use Descript's Studio Sound setting so you can hear the true raw comparison. (Normally I set Studio Sound to 50% using Descript ).
