At the beginning of 2018, Yogi’s Podcast Network launched The Zoo Media Network, a content network aimed at providing top-quality content at a reasonable price. This turned out to be an overly ambitious concept at the time. There were just too many small shows and not enough time to deal with them.

Content Network Shows

After much reflection and some planning, we are happy to announce that as of October 1, 2018, The Zoo Media Network is being relaunched! The all-new ZMN will feature:

• The Nightly Rant Uncensored. This is a topical show similar to The Nightly Rant, but it is completely uncensored. We will touch on some very sensitive topics and just give our opinion. The language is going to be rough so beware!
• Mike’s Heroes. This show is where Mike takes an article about heroism and discusses it and tells you how he feels about it.
• Today’s Top News. You are told about a top story of the day and what it means.
• Spewing Sports. This show will discuss the sports scene. It will focus on Denver Broncos, Los Angeles Rams, Los Angeles Dodgers, Anaheim Ducks, Winnipeg Jets, Las Vegas Golden Knights, Tottenham Hotspur, FC Barcelona, and the Melbourne Demons. While the focus will be on these particular teams, this is a general sports-oriented show.
• Point of View. This short podcast will focus on updates from the political world.
• The Faucet. This show will talk about cutting the cord and how to accomplish that. It will discuss shows to stream and binge watch as well.
• The Zoo Report. This is a monthly video show that updates everyone on The Zoo.
• ZMN Report. This is a monthly video show that updates you on the happenings here on ZMN.

More content will be added as the ZMN grows larger. We have chosen things we think will be …read more

Podcast headphones are an essential piece of equipment for anyone editing a podcast, but they can be quite expensive. Today I want to show you the headphones I use and explain why I love them.

Headphones are a very important accessory when podcasting. Both during recording and while editing, podcast headphones make a huge difference in the quality of the show. There are several things that are important when buying podcast headphones.

Accuracy

You want headphones that sound true to the audio.

Most consumer headphones are designed with music- and other entertainment-listening in mind. These podcast headphones will enhance certain frequencies. While this will sound great for entertainment, you need a more accurate reproduction of your audio.

This is called flat frequency response. Professional headphones labeled as “studio” or “monitor” headphones will try to maintain this flat frequency response, but some will still “color” your sound a little.

Comfort

You spend a lot of time wearing podcast headphones so you want them to be comfortable. This is a key consideration when buying podcast headphones.

Price

You can get obscenely priced headphones. This is why I recommend a budget of between $70 and $100 for your podcast headphones. This will get you a decent pair like the pair I use (see later in this article).

Portability

Being able to carry your headphones with you is going to be very important. Podcast headphones will be used in many different places so they must be portable.

Sony MDR 7506 Headphones

I recommend the Sony MDR 7506 headphones. I purchased mine on Amazon several years ago. I’ve had to replace the ear cups once in 5 years. They are very durable, give great sound quality and are very comfortable for podcast headphones. I have found that they can be worn for hours on end with little to no issues at all. I purchased a hard …read more
