MICS:

Sennheiser e835 $250 for 3 pack or 100 each(my favorite podcast mic, and the one I use):

RECORDERS:

Zoom H6 $350 (what I’ve used for most of my episodes):

Zoom PodTrak $220 (I haven’t used this, but it’s their new-ish recorder with podcasters specifically in mind, cool bc it gives you 4 inputs for mics plus 4 headphone jacks with separate volume for each, looks like it has really good reviews and might actually be the best option balancing features and price)

Rodecaster Pro $600 (more options and looks cool, but probably not needed)

XLR Cables if you don’t have them already

Mogami (These are on the obnoxiously expensive side, but the benefit is they’re shielded which some cheap ones on amazon aren’t, so you’ll have more luck avoiding any interference/buzz problems with them, can go cheaper if you want, but these are really nice, pick the length you think you need):

Depending if you have a table or just seats or if you want guests to just hold a mic, you can grab some mic stands too as needed.
