@JoshBarBlahBlah @magsfern Yes! I absolutely second this. In the same vein, pay attention to overlapping dialogue. It happens naturally and more often than you might realize. And it's a pain to transcribe, if you can transcribe it at all. Also, use your grad funds for a transcription service if you can.

[VT RW PhD @RW_PhD_VT]

Proud to say that we have a few R&W promotions in here! Congrats, @derekmueller!
