  I don’t know if this is true but the absurdity is hilarious to me so I’m choosing to believe you.

    I have seen a few you tubers jokingly show that it was disconnected. Because yes, at some point even that became a meme. But I couldn’t find an example off the top of my head.

      So make a new business of selling empty tiny mics… No wires, no circuits… But 20% cheaper

      It may work out…

        The fad has passed. Now the trend is using random objects as microphones.

  There was a time that this was something we made fun of. Now this is the goal

      No it’s Garth, though his last name starts with Al.

  I have to imagine this is the case for a decent chunk of people with those tiny mics, right? Sometimes the audio quality of the talker sounds way better than I would expect from essentially a lapel microphone, and there’s just a regular microphone out of frame.

  Not going to lie the tiny mics are a pet peeve of mine like many others in this thread, but I can’t explain it well as to why haha.

  I’m a big fan of not an engineer, who just uses random objects

  not the only person I’ve seen do it, but the first that comes to mind
