- Marantz PMD620 (aka "the little guy")
- Audio-Technica AT8035 shotgun mic (the only sort of shotgun I'll ever own)
- Rode PG2 pistol grip
- Micover puffin windscreen (in a pinch, this could double as a teddy bear)
- Shure SM-58 mic (because a lot of people get uncomfortable when you put a shotgun on a podium)
- Bose AE2 headphones
- Cables of a few different sizes
- A set of SD cards (you'll have to use your imagination here)
