But if you're serious about doing it, Levelator is good for balancing issues and a lot of people like to record in their closet. I wrote a really detailed post on my site if you're interested: The Podcasting Route
*grin* I want to do it, but yeah, the time necessary scares me. I like writing a lot. I don't mind the other stuff involved, but the time I spend on everything else is really eating into it. *sigh*
