What's a Take?
On Speakeasy, a take is a short (~5 minute) recording of a user explaining his/her opinion on a topic. You don't need to be an expert to record a take—we try to keep things casual, and we're all here to learn. Just be kind and respectful, and try to take a definite stance.
Still not sure what makes a good take? Listen to one here:
