Marcus LushHOST
54:51
The fear is irrational.
Marcus LushHOST
54:53
I don't think the fear is irrational of public speaking.
Marcus LushHOST
54:56
I think the fear is very rational because you are scared you're gonna make a fool of yourself, and it's quite easy to do And I think we are all quite judgmental of people that are public speaking.
Marcus LushHOST
55:06
So yeah, I would say that's irrational.
Marcus LushHOST
55:08
I've had times where I've done events and I thought, "Jeepers creepers, that was embarrassing." Um, I don't think anyone's that good at that.

And one day it got up to 560 on Kindle apps, which is crazy.
Mike AckerGUEST
16:11

Mike AckerGUEST
16:20
We often say that the number one fear in America is public speaking.
Mike AckerGUEST
16:24

... you noticed in your earlier days.
DeeHOST
60:32
How do you find that now when you need to do public speaking in these spaces?
Richard MaloneGUEST
60:36
I think it's okay, you know, because I, I also think I've been doing it long enough that I, I know what I'm doing, you know, in a way and I can talk about ...
Richard MaloneGUEST
60:46
the material and I can talk about what it means and where it's from in a way that's not like isolating the work from people and making it too like, you know, holier than thou or something.

MirHOST
5:49

5:55
It was about how to convey the message in the best way.
MirHOST

And also, I think it's very important to be really authentic because many people try to teach public speaking and they're just giving a list of tips.
MirHOST

MirHOST

At the same time, there are people that are just like, be yourself, that's enough.

Ismeet KohliHOST
25:57
हमम।
Gursimran KhambaHOST

25:13
It, it, it's always been like, you know, it w- I remember the first time I did, the first public speaking I did was in front of 10,000 people many, many years ago, and I was terrified.
KyleGUEST
25:21

Shawn BakerHOST
25:23
