I doubt I'm getting banned for having a chuckle at Behringer
Ha! I forgot to reply to this post.
Absolutely not. It takes years of abusive member behavior to get banned from here. That was just simple humor.

I thought about using lav mics but since we are going to be sitting talking about stuff I think LDC mics on legit mounts would be better for both sound quality and aesthetic.
EDIT: If I were to go with Lav Mics, what's the setup going to be like there? Still need the same kind of mixer? Lav Mics connect with 3.5mm jacks right? And there needs to be a low voltage supplied to them in order to work through the input right? Where would I connect them? And the camera isn't an option as of now. Any you would recommend?
It depends on the lav mics and how they will be used. The majority of lavs you see on TV or in theatre are used as radio mics. Connectors CAN be 3.5 mm (usually for cheaper transmit packs) but things like mini-XLR, LEMO and a host of others. In the radio mic world, the transmit pack provides bias power for the electret condenser.
Sony used to sell ECM 77 lavs designed for cable use. these had an adaptor at the end of the cable, allowing the mic to work from AA batteries or from standard phantom from a mixer.
I'm a fan of lavs for the right purposes but it can take some fiddling and changing of connectors to make them work in a "normal" situation.
