Ok so I knew I wanted to do some talk through guides and eventually start my own podcast, so I listen to some experts including Pat Flynn from Smart Passive Income about which microphone to buy and he recommended the Yeti Blue USB Microphone.
Before I continue with my thought I conducted a little test so you could listen for yourself.
This is the first test using just the built in microphone supplied with my ASUS laptop.

Now listen to the Blue yeti mic

So to give you more of a demo of this mic I have recorded a little bit more:

So I think everyone can agree the difference is night and day between your laptop mic and a professional mic especially if you are thinking of using it to communicate with your audience.
Let me know your thoughts or what microphones you use, I would love to hear your comments.
Thanks for listening
