Lankhmar is a fictional city in the Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser stories by Fritz Leiber. It is situated on the world of Nehwon, just west of the Great Salt Marsh and east of the River Hlal, and serves as the home of Leiber’s two antiheroes. It is richly described as a populous, labyrinthine city rife with corruption, decadent and squalid in roughly equal parts and said to be so shrouded by smog that the stars are rarely sighted.
Welcome to the Sanctum Secorum podcast. Tonight is our long awaited interview with Michael Curtis as we discuss the even more long awaited DCC Lankhmar kickstarter.

Hey Sanctum Secorum podcasters,
I’m writing because I’m really interested in becoming a regular listener of the show, but I’ve got some nagging questions related to the audio quality that may be a show-stopper for me. I’m not sure if these are known issues, or things others have talked about.
I just tried listening to my first episode of your show, the DCC Lankhmar episode #23. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to complete, because the audio has some strange stereo mixing issue.
Some of the podcaster voices either only come through my left headphone (or come at a much louder volume), and other podcasters only show up in the right headphone. I’m listening on a high-end set of Bose headphones, so the issue must be with the audio of the podcast file itself.
Something about the nature of how the Stereo is coming through makes the sound quality unlistenable to me. It triggers some nails-on-chalkboard type of sensation in my ears.
Is this the result of something you do when mixing and editing the show? Is it true of all episodes, or did I just catch an oddball?
I *love* the content that I was able to listen to. I really want to listen to the show–so I’m hoping you might have some insight as to what caused the issues.
Thanks.
Jared
Hi Jared,
The show is indeed mixed in stereo and so, intentionally, not everyone is in the “center of the room”. Please do try another episode and see if the issue is as extreme for you and let us know. Feedback is always good.
