The Hindsight 20/20 organizers have put out a call for presenters for the next event, currently looking at one of the last 2 Saturdays in April.

 

If anyone is interested in doing a 30 minute presentation you can contact them through the speedwitch media website, find the organizers on the groups.io group, or I believe they also have a Facebook group.
