We use a quicktap, which feeds audio into our mixer.

It's $60, and provides pretty good quality audio.  More advanced
models will separate the incoming/outgoing signal into two chanells
and/or equalize the volume on each.  

You're free to use the IMC interface to do the interview, if you can
do it when I'm around.  Let me know your timeframe and suggested
dates; I'm free most weekday mornings/afternoons.

Is this a piece for our radio show, or for the public i?
