Skip to around the 37:40 mark for my presentation on how sarcophagi were really used.

The audio was kind of crappy when I listened to it. I assume it will be for you too. Hopefully the content is interesting enough to overcome that issue.

It’s probably worth checking out some of the other presentations even if you don’t understand them just to get a sense of just how damn smart these people are.

This is fun. Painful, too, lol. I might end up jumping ahead to yours. I'm on the guy saying everything is recursive modelling, which is right, but the "science" couple are responding to everyone in an egotistical way - which is sometimes funny and sometimes its like - are they not aware of how they're presenting themselves? But funny, too, so idk.

They are extremely smart and articulate so they are in a position where they can help coach people on how to present. Apparently that is a major part of the PhD process. You develop a thesis, present it, and then let people critique it. To be fair these are very serious scientists who are up to date on many different research fronts.

They’re like Dick Vermeil looking for Vince Papale. They are panning for gold amongst their audience so a lot of the presenters are perhaps less polished at the art of presentation than they could be. The hosts have PhDs and they noticed how important it is to be able to deliver your ideas to other people. They want to enable their audience to become better at presenting while, at the same time, look for viable ideas that need to spread.

BAM! That was fire. You got their attention. Well done. Idk what to say, I'm heading back to finish listening. Hell yeah, that was an amazing 60 seconds

You've got my attention man.

The audio wasn't too bad.

I also get the feeling that if I met you at a party I'd spend far too long chatting to you.
