David, there's always been some echo from your microphone since the station switched to this new Youtube system. But in this episode the echo is loud and clear. You're saying everything twice.
They really need to take a look at their technicals, unless the problem is at your end. I don't know what app you're using to confer, but you might check settings and see if you have the thingy that stops feedback/echo turned off. Can't remember what it's called. Oh, in Discord it's called "Echo Cancellation.
And Greg just figured it out adn fixed it.
Thank you, Greg!
