In this episode, Richard speaks with Andrew Macadam. Andrew is currently the Managing Director for startups in Western Europe at Microsoft. He has also held a variety of other roles, including being an Evangelist, which at Microsoft means you go out and get people excited about new technologies.

Throughout Andrew’s diverse roles, he has gathered a lot of experience in public speaking. He discusses with Richard that terrible moment most public speakers encounter when their minds go completely blank - and the audience doesn’t even notice. They discuss the adrenaline rush you experience right before speaking and how your body goes into a serious flight or fight mode.
