I also like to say that I have a face for podcasts or radio and a voice for blogging or writing. (Yeah, I don’t like my voice, and listening to a recording of myself makes me cringe every time.)

Given that, imagine how much I cringe when I watch video of myself giving a talk, even when people tell me it was an excellent talk.

@ScientistMel could help you out. Or just put yourself out there to guest on shows like@gm_skeptic or The Line which@Matt_Dillahunty is affiliated with. Call in shows that you can actually speak with anti-vaxxers or people that need help with anti-vaxxer family would be -
so great. No offense but researchers, doctors and scientists refusal to mingle with laypeople has been a huge part of the problem.
