One host per ear

"One host per ear" (or similar phrases) is a blanket term used to refer to the audio issues that plagued the first episode of The Skyhoppers Podcast. The crux of the issue was that Ben edited and published the entire episode in stereo, meaning that he was entirely in the right audio channel while Ash was entirely in the left channel. This produced an effect where each host could only be heard in one speaker or headphone.

Origins
When first starting out, Ben did not realize that the audio program he was using to record the Skype calls for the podcast recorded in stereo. This resulted in a less than stellar listening experience for the audience. This was pointed out not only by an early listener on Twitter, but also by Ash's dad. This issue only appears in Episode I and in Episode C, where the introduction from Episode I is reused as a callback to this mishap as a celebration of how far the podcast had come in 100 episodes. And it will never appear again.

Appearances

 * Episode I: Of Introductions and Droids (first appearance)
 * Episode C: Breaking Down the Glass Ceiling Of The Good Guy Club (appears as audio clip)
