It was Steve Church on both counts.

Tom Ray and Andrew Zarian join Kirk to discuss using consumer electronic gear in professional broadcast stations. Turns out we NEED a lot of that “consumer stuff” to make a radio station work. Indeed, Andrew says you can build a whole Internet TV network with (mostly) consumer gear.
