The Three Amigos Interview - The Candid History Of ATS
WARNING – EXPLICIT LANGUAGE - WARNING – EXPLICIT LANGUAGE
This is an EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with “The Three Amigos” back before the ATS MIX conception and before I became a more FCC
compliant, kinder, gentler Dave. This interview details how AboveTopSecret.Com started, when Simon met Skeptic Overlord.... and when Springer came on
board. This is as FACTUAL as you are ever going to get about the history and mechanics of the biggest and most successful conspiracy website in
the world. There are numerous surprises, even for the ATS VETERANS. So sit back, kick your feet up, grab your favorite beverage and get ready
from a lot of fun with “The Three Amigos”. By the way, there is another voice in this interview. The first person to POST HERE who
it is CORRECTLY, I will award 5,000 ATS points. WON ON ANOTHER THREAD By Member SHAR! - The correct answer was AGENT X!

Enjoy the show.

that was quite the funny/interesting podcast, I must say google saving ATS who would of thought?
and I “FLAGGED THE MUTHA”
and to whatukno:
I'm sure he has a nice audio interface on his computer (as do i) and maybe a dynamic/condenser microphone? but that's all just a guess.

Whatukno.....
All of my interviews are done via SKYPE. The post and pre-production are done using Podcast Station. The newest version of SKYPE gives a much cleaner
recording than the previous versions they came out with. Of coure, using a Super Cardioid Microphone is an absolute must to eliminate back scatter.
Thanks for taking the time to make a comment.

I had always assumed that Simon was much older.
An amazing podcast guys, great job! Was an interesting listen.

I tune in to all of the Amigo podcasts, and I have to say, Dave Rabbit brought the best of the boys out on this one. I found myself laughing out loud
more than once listening to this. It was a lot of fun.

Anomic of Nihilism,
You will not be disappointed. I would give my vote to this podcast as the best yet on ATS. As informative as this podcast was, it was just as, if
not more, comical.

Hi All,
That was a very informative and funny podcast.  I do hope there are more like it in the future. Hearing how ATS got started was one of the things
I found missing during my stay here. (Of course, I didnt really go looking for it either.  )
To say that ATS is awesome would indeed be an understatement, and even with my brief hiatus, I still found myself google-led to this spot for info.
Thanks again for this and for the laughs that made my day that much better.

A very entertaining and informative podcast. Dave you captured the 3 amigos at their best! The introduction was very catchy and I liked the ending
outro song too... LOL
The history of how ATS came to be created and how each amigo complimented one another was interesting.
And just so you know... I flagged the thread..LOL
Looking forward to more from you all...
Johnny

Hi Johnny.....
This was one of the most fun interviews I have done, with the possible exception of the old "Springer Sprung" show we use to do (here on ATS) and
the most recent one of Springer in Chicago on the O'Hare Discovery thing. It was my first time to ever talk to Skeptic (although I heard him on the
ATS review pods) and Simon. 25! Look what this guy created when he was a teenager. Wow. Still blows me away.
Thanks for stopping by at Che' Rabbit.
Dave

Yeah.... "Izzard" for the WIN! Only an original "Amigo" could be that clever and make a real SLAM DUNK statement!
By the way.... thanks to all who have "Flagged The Mutha!"
Dave
P. S. I killed about 10 minutes BEFORE and AFTER in the edit process that was an absolute RIOT.... but, was OFF THE RECORD!  Sauron's "F BOMB"
counts would have really gone through the ceiling.

Was it really Google that saved ATS?
Or was it something else?
Maybe they really are monitoring everything here, and wanted ATS to continue.
That was a good interview, enjoyed it.
