While most of us think little about a camera aimed in our direction, why’s it so hard to be as comfortable when a microphone is in front of us? One is visual, the other audio. Maybe because it’s so easy to insert a foot in our mouth. While we’d never think about wrapping lips around a camera lens, jokes about swallowing a microphone abound.
