I'm wondering if I'm doing the thing Howard Stern did when he started out on the radio and he sounded "weird." That's probably cope on my part. lol

I got myself a microphone so I can participate in podcasts etc. to promote my book. Tried the microphone out tonight and did the thing where you, after you hear yourself, you then ask, "Do I really sound like that?" Because, my God, I have no bass in my voice and I sound like I'm 15.
