WOW you have been working hard at building your new podcast studio, its so exciting with this new project and its a fantastic way to have go through things and have a clear out and to let go of any extra things you don't need anymore and it helps other people out, so looking forward to watching how the Podcast studio build comes along, AWESOME video Rick and I am off to watch Part two now, thanks so much for sharing with us Rick and sending lots of love and happiness from Belfast XXXX
Couldn't you just build your podcast space in that spare room, rather than tear apart your craft room? Honestly you could just leave the chairs in the conservatory and record there. People tend to over-think their recording space...the content is the most important thing, not the space/set. One example is mrballen here on YT, huge channel, basic set up, his storytelling ability is what built the channel, not his recording space.
For me, it’s the overthinking and the building that’s the attraction 😁🤣
Hate to say, when you sat in those chairs in the conservatory w/ the little table in between.. I was like, that's IT. Perfect setup, ideal spot, Already set up. ❤
@@rickvanmanOne of these days I'll learn that, and I will shut up and stop trying to give you advice. 🤣. Then again I have a much smaller space, so moving between three spare rooms is not an option for me anyway, so I've learned to make do with less space. We all have experiences that shape our attitudes toward space.
I kept thinking take your jumper off Rick if you’re too hot!! Good job done so far. Need to do my office now!
Wouldn't it be easier to just use the smaller room as the podcasting space?
I don’t do simple 🤣
I was just thinking the same thing! lol
@@twinsgran 😂😂
@@twinsgran We are watching and honestly cannot understand WHY he didn't. Maybe by episode 6 it will be clearer, but right now it makes no sense. (sorry Rick, watched you for years and enjoy your videos and what you do, but this so far really is beyond my comprehension :D )
I keep thinking. You're Rick VAN Man. Why not podcast from the van?
Yes to the conservatory chairs, they are ideal. What would the table be used for? Clip on mics best, boom mic are constantly being fiddled with ive noted. Wall colour - if youre going to have coloured lights then thats a consideration, as grey wont work. Sound deadening could go on the ceiling. We definitely need a name.
Rick these are my favourite videos!! Please do as many as you can on this, it makes me want to move my flat around! 😂
Sure thing! Glad you liked it 😊👍
Next will be the treble glazed window between the control room and the studio... All things I too have done before. No reason not to have some fun...
Oh wow Rick lol. You know what they say about oh having to get worse before it gets better ! I know you are hating the things not in their place at the moment 😂. A lot of work but it’s enabled you to have a clear out and honestly, that box room with a wheeled chair you’ll have everything at your fingertips. Your podcast room is going to make a bloody awesome vr room too ! 😊
Oh you know me well! Lol! Thanks for the great comments mate 😊👍❤️
Why black would Grey not be good with very light eucalyptus make it relaxing ❤😂 just though of it maybe it'd not good idea try it on a computer model
It’s more case of working with what’s available, but have worked in some grey 😊👍❤️
I guess it's too late for this comment now, but personally I would have only cleared a small section, or use that smaller room for the podcast? Clearly you like organizing for it's own sake. Not my cup of tea but if you enjoy it then by all means. I'd just really hate to see you go through all that planning and moving and reorganizing and equipment purchases if you're not 100% sure you'd stick with the podcasts. I think you had the perfect podcast space already if you can do the THG videos from there you've already got a perfect setup. Again I hope no offense taken, I love the videos, but it's just something to think about.
Or it could be my own jealousy that I don't have 3 spare rooms to play around with, nor anywhere near the patience or motivation to do what you're doing here. I WOULD do the cleaning out if I wanted space for space's sake and I didn't use that stuff (that's a lesson I need to learn), just I wouldn't do it JUST for the podcast studio. And if you like re-organizing for its own sake, by all means have at it :)
My goodness-you’re like a blooming whirl wind!!!😂😉(Ricks delve into the curious podcast)?xx
Rick I just did some house cleaning while listening to your video, thanks so much for the motivation and company whilst cleaning!
I think you might regret shoehorning yourself into a small room for doing your editing work. Everything fits - sure, but it doesn't look comfortable.
Hypothetical question about the podcast table
Why do you need a table ?
Is it just for drinks, is it to put a laptop on ?
Which way do you want to use the space, for solo you want a backdrop behind you
with guests will you be face to face (formal) or side by side (relaxed)
It almost seems like you need something like a free standing caravan table, it would go down to coffee table, but up to dining height
Personally i like the relaxed slightly facing into each other, with the option of just having 1 seat for solo.smae backdrop.
All of the above LOL!😂
1:55 They are called Kallax. I bought some for my stream room and thought I am so clever, and right in take one people said "Oh, you bought those "streamer shelfs".... and yeah, every streamer on the planet is using them for the background. I am working on hiding them ever since, hehe. But they are so practical!
😂😂
How about a big black curtain on a curved rail Rick. Then you can change the backdrop if you want to.
A man on a mission, you’ve done amazingly well in such a short period, rest up, sleep well, onwards & upwards, to infinity & beyond 😂
Annie🏴
You're making me want to re do my studio LOL. Can't wait to see how it turns out!
Ohnim so like you... i get onsessed by these sorts of projects.
Baerbel Born again, with her propper stream channel.... I am actually working on giving my craft/stream room a huge makeover. From shabby chic and white all over into dark academia (thats a propper term!) I am half through and you are my company, I listen to the videos while painting, building and contemplating. I am looking forward to your outcome of the room. I liked the bunk beds... I would take them if beaming will be invented.
I hope you are enjoying your makeover as much as I have been enjoying this 😊👍❤️
just film from the conservatory, rick lol
I spent 5 hours picking up trash. I'm worn out.
massive progress and the box room looks like a nice, cosy space as well.
Well , just “ Respect “ Rick that would give me one big panic attack. I don’t know how you had the patience to work it all out. Well done. Here’s to the next vid.xx
Thanks Norma 👍😊❤️
Same here. It's easy to watch this and think "Either this guy's obsessive or I'm incredibly lazy." (Probably both). But just remember you're looking at Type A+ OCD here, not one of us mere mortals :) I also am of the opinion that all this really is overboard just for a little podcast space. Why not just put the podcast stuff in the box room and be done with it? But he gets fun from it so why not. I have to stop making suggestions, just shut up and go along with it LOL. I would never do anything like that, not that I have the space to anyway. I just have a tiny apartment (flat) smaller than his downstairs :(. And nowhere near the motivation to do anything of that scale :( I'd be like. Computer - check. Microphone - check. Okay let's get recording.
Hey Rick, love watching you think out loud when you get a new project idea 😁 do you have 3 bedrooms there or 4?
Technically 4, but one is now my loft, as I have no loft space.
@@rickvanmanMinimalists don't need lofts, it's like a super power 😉
Knock that divideing wall down
rick. Open plan the future. 👍👍⛱️⛱️
Enjoying seeing this Rick. My project over the next few months is renovating my back yard, making it somewhere nice to spend time in the summer. Made some good progress yesterday painting. Wanted to apply a second coat today but frustratingly, it hasn't stopped raining all day.
NO you can’t go to sleep 😂 Where do you plan on having your pull up exercise stand ?
I move it in a future episode 😁👍
@@rickvanmanlooking forward to it ❤
Te rick of old green screen circa 2010 i think ?
Yep, have to dust it off now and again 😂
Hello Rick,
Congrats on that super creative podcast idea!
It sounds like you're pouring your heart and soul into this project, and that kind of passion is contagious.
Can't wait to hear the first episode from your new studio - all that hard work is definitely going to pay off!
The podcast itself sounds like a fantastic idea, and I wish you tons of success with it.
Looking forward to seeing where your creative energy takes you on this journey. And what the studio will look like.
Greetings from Germany.
Thank you for the kind comments 😊👍❤️
Strangely therapeutic watching you organise bits!
It’s a great feeling when your items are so appreciated by people who need them.
I have seen podcast room walls covered in dark carpet and I guess that makes for decent sound proofing ?
Yes, carpet, bath towels, old duvets they all do the job 😊👍
