Which sounds better?

Yesterday I did an interview/podcast for the SHC with a Scholar alumna Dr. Meena Bose who is a professor of Presidential Studies at Hofstra. I think readers of this blog will find it of interest, but I also wanted to ask your help. Because I recorded this from the phone via Skype we sound “hissy.” In one file I tried to reduce that, but it made a very muffled sound over all. In the other I did not alter it, but wonder if it is too noisy. Can we have a vote?

The “Raw” file has the interview without editing the sound quality and the “Edited” file has the, well, edited file. The first 35 seconds is introduction and the same on both.

Thanks for your comments!
