Here's my guest Maria getting ready to join the live stream.

Once you're ready, press the "Enter Studio" button and join the event.

You'll see yourself underneath the main screen in the feed. Your video won't be visible to anyone until the host adds it to the screen.

Once the host adds you to the screen and starts the broadcast, make sure to enchant the audience and be awesome!
