Stop using that computer. You should pay attention to what the built-in diagnostics are telling you. I have multiple Behr...

Re: I cannot find my podcasts URL

You know we're just the sound editor, right?

Really Simple Syndication is a markup service much like HTML.

Re: stereo track turns echoy

They warn you that Aggregate Device is not the same as a sound mixer. Aggregate Device combines the two sound bitstreams with zero attention paid as to whether or not they're in sync. And they won't be. Do you remember it asking which USB stream you want to use as the "Master?" That's why....
