Since this is also a video recording, ensure your background is visually ok for perpetuity 😬

Each episode will have a new Zencastr link. The episode leas will send hosts and guests their individual Zencastr link + a link to the zoom session. Once you have your Zencastr recording link, feel free to click on it in advance so you can check and make sure everything is set-up correctly. Especially inspect the health check.
1) Please plug your headphones into the computer BEFORE you open the Zencastr window - it can be a bit glitchy if you plug headphones in after opening the recording session.
2) Mute/turn off notifications on computer and phone please
