We just recorded a perfect 30 minute episode; one of the best to date. We were following our standard workflow and was compressing it down so we could deliver it to you, our listeners, as fast as possible. Something went wrong in the middle of the compression and unfortunately we lost the entire episode.

We’ll return next week and cover all the e-mails that we did this week and maybe even mention some of the highlights from the now lost episode.

Due to time constraints we just couldn’t pull off another 30 minute episode tonight so we instead recorded a quick 1:30 episode explaining what happened and I hope all our loyal listeners will understand.

You also might recognize that we sound much clearer. Prior to recording we discovered we were recording wrong and one of the Matts was behind the microphone for each episode; you should be able to hear him loud and clear from this point on.

Thanks for listening and don’t forget to email us at Matt@Mattcast.com
