Guys. I'm so excited to be interviewing Alkazar. He's the creator of ChimeraOS, but also his new project Kazeta! It's an amazing project. kazeta.org

Finally, I want to mention that the intro and outro that I recorded with my phone sounded like junk. I recorded it shortly after filming the interview last week. When I finished the edit today, I realized that my palm was covering my phone's mic and it made the audio sound like garbage.
I would have re-recorded the intro/outro, but Emily and I have come down sick, my throat is sore, and my voice sounds awful. All of this is to say, I used DaVinci Resolve's "Voice Convert" feature which I trained on last my last Steam Deck news video. It's nearly flawless, but I know some folks might pick up on it. Just wanted to be 100% transparent about it! The video is completely authentic, the words I'm speaking are my words, but the audio you hear was replaced by DaVinci voice convert.
