The best I found so far is to route system audio through Skype with Soundflower and LineIn, both free apps. So I started poking around, looking for solutions. Wiretap Anywhere, for the Mac is one way to do this, but a single license is $129 and that just won’t do. System audio does normally not register in Skype and there is no way to route specific applications, like iTunes, through it without expensive software. That’s another problem altogether though - one that I hope to solve in the future if I can’t get Audiohijack works as it should.) (Jim could have played a clip, but that would mean he would have to switch audio sources from Skype, to iTunes and then back again to get us all on the air after the clip was done. When the “Talking Tina” episode of the Twilight Zone came up, for example, it would have been great if those of us calling in on Skype could have played a clip or two from the episode. The one thing we all wished we could do that was not possible with the way the broadcast was set up, was to play audio clips through Skype so that they would play on air.
We had a blast talking about all kinds of stuff, from The Twilight Zone, to collectible action figures, to I am Legend, to Charleton Heston. Jim ran the stream and several of us called in via Skype. Last night, a few of us DS106 Radio maniacs messed around live on the air.
