I can hear you, Gary. Can you hear me?

For those following along with Gary Hawkes' microphone woes on the This Week in Testing stage, you'll be pleased to know he's resolved the issue. 🎉
We ran a live test session on Crowdcast and eventually got things working.
A bit of back and forth.
I could hear him.
Then I couldn't.
Then he couldn't hear me.
And I could still hear him.
Fiddly mic input shenanigans refusing to connect to Gary's headset and instead defaulting to the microphone of the closed MacBook.
Open MacBook and et voilà.
So join us both for another episode of This Week in Testing. https://www.ministryoftesting.com/this-week-in-testings
