Can we get a bit more information on the process added to the job post, please?

The simmer records the video, then the commentator records audio… and then magic happens. What are the technical requirements to do the audio recording? Does it go back to the simmer or another person to combine audio and video together before uploading to YouTube?

The video gets uploaded to a shared Google Drive folder and then the scheduled commentator(s) records the audio via a voice channel in Discord using a bot called Craig. The commentator then sends the link to the recorded Craig audio to the post-producer (see separate role) who mixes the audio and video together.
