In the interests of posterity, in bold is what was edited out of the podcast:
[LOUD ROFO]
Mike: OH MY GOD, HE”S ….. GOD!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING UP THERE???? [Rips off headphones].
Spewak: Oh my [giggling], I know what happened here, I’m sorry.
Mike: What happened there, Mr. I Never Touch the Board Eveeeerrrr Unless I’m Told to? What?
Spewak: No. OK, now talk, Rob.
[LOUD ROFO. Mike rips off headphones again].
Oscar: The send to him is too loud, the send to him is way too loud.
Mike (disgusted): It’s coming. It’s coming sooner than it’s coming later. He’s great, he’s not going anywhere, he’s gonna stay on the show, but it’s coming. This is like the producer jobs. This is it. You’re playing yourself out, you’re playing yourself out of the gig. I know you’re comfortable in that chair. Get used to another location in the studio. I swear to God.
Spewak: It would fine by me.
Mike: I know it would be, I know it would be. That kills me me too, that kills me, too.
Spewak: No, I want it to the best as possible, Mike, I want it to be the best possible. But if it’s not, if it’s not adequate … I want … ideally, I want everyone to be pleased. That’s what I want.
Mike: What this is, I can tell you what it is [speaks sotto voce as one intern then booms as RoFo] OK, go ahead RoFo.
[RoFo booms yet again].
Mike: NO, NO, NO!!!. I’m getting… it’s his send. I guess it’s his send.
Spewak: OK, is it too loud or too quiet?
Mike: ARRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!
Spewak: Mike, Mike, is it too loud or too quiet?
Mike: ARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!! WHEN I’M TAKING MY HEADPHONES OFF, WHAT DOES THAT INDICATE TO YOU???? IT’S TOO LOUD!!!!
Spewak: All right. I backed them off again. I backed them off again.
Mike: NOT ENOUGH!
[RoFo booms for 4th time].
