Help with wireless external microphone

Hi guys,

I'm trying to make some podcast videos and i need your help concerning the audio recording. In my video podcast i have 2 guys walking around the room at a fair distance from the camera so i need to use some sort of external wireless microphone solution connected to my android to pick up their voices at the same time i'm recording the video, because the built-in mic isn't good enough. My problem is that i'm on a low budget and on amazon and ebay, and a decent wireless external microphone solution with 1 or 2 lapel mic's start at 100$ and can get very expensive. Do you know any system like that, that is more affordable? Another way to possibily solve the problem is to try other alternatives, like having each host carry a smartphone with a wired lapel mic and then sync both audios with the video, but i would like to avoid post-production work as much as i can, because i want a fast video creation workflow. Another idea is to use a bluetooth device as an external microphone to pick up audio when you're recording video, but i don't know if that's possible with just 1 or 2 devices at the same time. Do you have any more suggestions?

Thanks in advance :)
 
bro, i dont have any idea on how to do it but i am interested on the result. will you share the link if its up?kudos to you!
 
I will most likely use the "each host as a smartphone with a wired lapel" approach, it will require more post-production work but at least i won't have to spend at least $100 for a wireless microphone kit. If i find another solution i will post it here :)
