Pricey (should still be) but definitely worth it. You may already know this but if I may offer my advice as someone who did DJ-ing/voice acting before... If you're going to use it for podcasting with a large number of people (as you do now with BOB), you'll probably want an omni-directional mic though this will most probably mean you're going to pick up a lot of background noise especially if you're going to record on the fly outdoors. Check this out on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microphones#Microphone_polar_patterns The guys at Audiophile should be able to help you find the mic that's right for you. Just tell them about what it's for, where you're going to use it, and other various conditions that you might encounter while using it. Can't wait for the next Podcast. ;) Shure was the mic of choice back in the days. Pricey (should still be) but definitely worth it.
