    Suggestion: when you guys use a voice recorder that records in stereo, a lot of times the interviews sound echo-y because of their stereo recording(sounds fine on headphones, but on laptop/mobile/mono speakers, there's lots of destructive interference). Turn it to mono in post (cancel the left channel and replicate the right on left as well - easy fix in any editing software) Works like a charm and sounds great!
