Default Strange sound when braking

Help! Newbie here. My 2008 Accord is making strange sounds when I apply the brakes, specifically when coming to a full stop. I attached an audio recording.

The tricky part is, this sound doesn't seem to happen after a cold start. But once I've been driving around for a while, it starts to happen every​ time I bring the car to a full stop.

I had the pads and rotors completely replaced back in September. Not sure what's wrong now

It's a 2008 Accord, 4 cylinder engine, automatic transmission. Thank you in advance!

If it's ONLY when you're braking, then it had to be your brakes. Try to figure out if it's the front or back... I wonder if the brakes are glazed.

I'm pretty sure it's the rear brakes, sounds like the rear passenger side as far as I can tell. And it doesn't seem to impact the ability to slow down or stop the car. Not sure why the sound only happens after I've been driving for a while...

I'm going to try having the mechanic look at it. Seems like I'm never able to reproduce these kinds of sounds/problems when I actually visit the garage. My mechanic probably thinks I'm loco
