When guests connect online to record a podcast episode, it’s best if they close all the applications on their computer which they don’t need open.
If a guest is connecting with the host via Squadcast, for instance, they obviously need Chrome open to run Squadcast. And if they have notes they want to refer to on their screen that’s fine too. But other than that, guests should close all other applications.
Because, the more applications that are running on any given computer can contribute to possible problems like glitching on the audio recording, computer completely freezing up, files syncing to the cloud taking up valuable bandwidth, etc.

Something else that can impact a remote recording is making sure the latest version of Chrome is running.
