[Mindless]

I've been broadcasting/recording my podcast with a thirty dollar USB mic from Target for a while now and I just really don't like it. It just isn't hot enough. I have to get right up on it in order to be heard and even then what it picks up is fairly muted. So I wanna pick something better up to record with. My budget is really small though and I've got about $100 to maybe $120 maximum I want to spend on it. I've looked at some mics on Amazon and Musician's Friend but I honestly don't know shit about khz or what a cardiod pickup pattern does so I thought I'd ask you fine folks if you could help me pick something that isn't going to be complete shit.
