I prefer a wearable microphone

Additional notes:
It’s super helpful if the host/organizer scans the chat/Slido for any questions/comments.
It’s fine to interrupt me with statements like, “Lisa has a question about…” I will sometimes handle the question in real-time or suggest we pick it up later. But the mega point is it’s fine to talk to me as it’s a casual environment. If there’s a problem/issue, bring it up with me right away.
I will sometimes ask you what you think about an issue as a way to fill time as we wait for poll responses via Slido. Whatever you say, I will make you sound brilliant, so don’t worry.
Occasionally I will ask you to “cold call” someone in the audience. Typically I will ask folks to raise their hand if they want to be called on. Good if you choose someone who likes to talk and is a non-white male to build diversity “on stage.”
Need host/organizer/Zoom manager to handle details: occasionally muting folks, giving me permission to share my slides, etc. I assume we will be in meeting mode, not webinar mode, as I like to engage the entire audience with questions.
If I get dropped, which happens rarely: I will be back within a minute or two. Be patient. You can text me at 650 867 4338. My email is gbiddle616@gmail.com.
Schedule: I believe you’d like me to talk from 8:30-10:30 am PT as that is what is on my calendar. My plan is to get on the Teams link at 8:15 am PT to set up. I will likely talk for about one hour and forty-five minutes and leave fifteen minutes for questions at the end. The date is Tuesday, May 17, 2022.
Laugh at my jokes. (It should be fun.)
