How expensive are those mics that fixing it is more reasonable than just getting a new one?

I can empathize with Brad. Trying to be a good guy and accidentally breaking something. Then the feeling of pure shame after. It'll be ok Brad.

One way to try and get rid of the chest hair sound is to take some paper wrap it into a cone shape and make a pocket for the mic to rest it. Than tape it to the body with the pocket pointing upwards. This method has worked for me but I don't know if you guys have tried it already. Thought I would try and help.

Are they expensive or something?

The giantbomb crew just got mac book airs, a million x-boxes, ps3's, wii's, vita's and ds's, tv's, monitors, tri casters, an entire studio.

Come on guys, just buy another microphone.

@paulwade1984: It's a joke. They already bought a new one. This is mostly done for laughs.

Is it a nerve thing that makes Brad always put his hands behind his head when being filmed at his desk?
