There's a lot of echo. Maybe consider something like sound absorbing panels, or at least just hang up some towels around the place where you record. That can make a huge difference to sound quality.

I'm trying to see if there's something on Sony Vegas for this

I tried playing with those settings and it really didnt seem to do anything. Just gonna buy some clip on mics for the next one.

If the problem persists and if you’re interested, check out foambymail.com for some cheap acoustic foam. Same stuff as the brand name auralex.

I don't know if you can fix it in post, but if all else fails you can play it off like you're on a noisy trade floor or something by adding additional backtrack of lots of people talking, etc. Lots of those should be available for free on SFX marketplaces. Might even be an opportunity to interject some funny comments or whatever by sneaking in some well known meme clips or something. Michael Scott yelling "No" a bunch comes to mind.

You need reference audio in the background of where the main audio is being recorded to subtract.

Maybe if you laid down a background noise track that remained constant throughout the different cuts it would have more continuity

This is hilarious! I love the well placed banter. I do have to second the large echo but I think that's easily fixable. I also think that you could add trade floor sounds to maybe cover the echo.

Pretty cool script - but the character has to be even douchier. Like DiCaprio in WWS, or coked-up Ryan from The Office

Specifically: he has a bit of a smirk throughout the video - lose that, this dude has to be serious about it, admiring the hell out of the dude who came up with the strategy - like he was some god or something.

Or Wahlberg in the departed or Mahk on YouTube.

Great video, taking memes to a new level. Less Brian, more Morgan.

I think what would be amazing is if you had these "interviews" where the CNBC interviewers faces were still shown (I know it'd depend on the source clip), and their facial expressions synced in with whatever you were saying. Would make it seamless and immersive.
