Daniel and his wife Laurie visit Universal Studios Hollywood, to attended the\\xa0annual\\xa0Halloween\\xa0Horror Nights. \\xa0This is not your usual run-of-the-mill DisGeek Podcast episode. \\xa0Instead we present a recording of Daniel and Laurie AT the event. \\xa0Here are a few notes about the recording:

\\n
    \\n
  • It is not in binaural\\xa0so headphones are not really needed but may help. I was just me walking and holding my digital audio recorder. It didn\\u2019t have a pop filter of any kind so you will occasionally hear a pop and some wind now and then.
  • \\n
  • I had a few technical difficulties and you hear those issues. For example on Transformers the first part is a bit\\xa0over-modulated\\xa0and it wasn\\u2019t until halfway thru the ride did I realize it. There was a time or two where I\\xa0identically\\xa0turned off the recording so there may be a weird edit or two.

  • Also we walk through the mazes and you get to join us.. The recording of those could be loud, and a bit disturbing. It is halloween horror nights after all. You will hear the occasional swear word. Not from us, but the people around us and some graphic descriptions. I don\\u2019t do the best job at describing what I see, but with the audio, you can use your own\\xa0imagination. So if you are bothered by Horror type stuff, you may want to pass.

  • Finally if you plan to attend Universal\\u2019s Halloween Horror Nights consider this a spoiler warning.

I realize that this may not be your cup of tea. \\xa0But I\\u2019m a huge fan of these types of events and of theme parks in general so I thought it would be fun to share this with you. \\xa0If not, then we will see you next week, with a brand new episode of the DisGeek Podcast. \\xa0Enjoy the show.
