Should I use a dynamic microphone or a condenser microphone for recording a podcast? What about streaming on twitch or making youtube videos? Should I ever use a ribbon microphone?

If you are recording for YouTube or a podcast you should buy a USB dynamic microphone. These affordable options will sound tremendously better than the microphone on your headphones or laptop.
