[@relaxingnaturesounds2339]

That background music was outta control!

[@morningho826]

NOBODY HAS DIED UP ON STAGE....! That gives me courage. Thanks for these wonderful tips for my first English public speech!

[@parler8698]

That background music 🎶 is in the foreground.

[@AustinIuliano]

Thanks for the heads up.

[@mariadavidgadzama3358]

My thoughts exactly

[@sdh929]

Agree, the background music is too loud. It's quite hard to hear your speech.

[@littlemisswowzers7188]

Agree its hard to hear him

[@jeffthomsonmusic]

This was terrific. Thank you, Austin!

[@jeffeschliman6871]

Very helpful Austin, I wrote my "Ice Breaker" last week and I used the timeline method you recommended as an alternate. This video affirmed several elements of the process for me. 😀

[@AustinIuliano]

Really happy to hear that you used the technique! Good luck on your public speaking journey. What made you start?

[@CocinandoconMartha121]

I just joined a toastmasters club and am preparing my icebreaker!

[@juvi4371]

Get that actor a neck brace! This was awesome Austin!! As a new member to Toastmasters, I've been through every one of those emotions you discussed. Your energy is everything. Loved the TedTalk, lmao. Keep doing what you're doing brother...I learned a lot in those 11 min.; this gave us fresh meat hope!! 🤓🥰👏

[@savvyfrancis3231]

Helpful information. Many thanks. The background music was very loud - if it was turned down a little it would come presentation would come out more clearly.

[@khall5296]

That scene was the best !! Captain America 💥

[@gloriaagyare6472]

Good content Austin! The music was loud, but the content was good so I had to focus more on that. Thanks for doing this.

[@AustinIuliano]

Thanks, I know and sadly I can't change it. It's just something you learn through failure.

[@gloriaagyare6472]

@@AustinIuliano No it was perfect! its no failure at all. It happens. I wrote my ice breaker using your outline and it was so good. cheers

[@AustinIuliano]

@@gloriaagyare6472 Thats fantastic to hear! What feedback did you get? Also was this a virtual meeting or an in person meeting?

@@AustinIuliano Thanks so much Austin and I wish you every success for the future (from New Zealand!) :) Have a great weekend Nga mihi

[@YOU-bg1qe]

The music is louder than your voice. Cant watch it although it looks so good..

[@AustinIuliano]

At least it looks good. :) Thanks for the feedback.

[@ketankapoor1904]

Wow! I need a mentor like you.

[@ESLVideos24]

great video man thank you

[@suzie0741]

it is really helpfull but backround music is high more than enough. I can not focus your speech

[@poojachavankan]

I too wasn't able to focus on his speech due to loud background music ☹️

[@AustinIuliano]

Yes I've been told this. That is the journey of learning KZbin. You get to make mistakes and have the whole world see it. But that's okay. That is how you learn :)

[@thegracefuljane4515]

I love you , 😅 I learnt a lot .

[@VitaHydra]

Love the Jackie Chan reference 😅

[@AustinIuliano]

Glad you caught the reference, he is amazing :)

[@saraw5143]

lovely

[@patricklemarie1314]

Thank you for this great inspiring video.

[@DAClub-uf3br]

One of the first things i learned about toastmasters is that not only do you present speeches you also have to write them. This was off putting as i have never been good at writing with the exception of technical writing (Manuals, Instructions, etc...).

[@АружанКутушова-в2ъ]

Good information but the background music is so distracting 😣😣

[@froukjewiendels877]

i cant hear the text because the music is to loud. Rule nr 1 with informational explainers: do not use any music at all

[@Jag_e_bandeya]

The music is too loud

[@theSOUNDcoalition]

After 2:09 the music gets lower

[@ruchigoswami9213]

Background music is too loud. So hard to hear. Good content otherwise.

[@elsamichel]

The music is very distracting...completely unnecessary...

[@milliondollarprince867]

The background music is so annoying, it distracts me from ur message

[@ichigomgx]

I couldn’t continue watching this video coz of the annoying music

[@videos6505]

Jesus Christ. Re-upload the video fix the background music.

[@adorablecats9891]

This was great information, Austin. My Icebreaker speech is only 4 days away 😮. I will definitely rewatch this & take your amazing advice. Thanks so much.

[@pallavi_melody]

Music is too loud

[@FABIOh1976]

Thanks. Your video added value to me, going for the first toastmaster speech.

[@joymizzoni5898]

the background music is really loud and distracting. I wanted to listen and take notes but I had to turn it off because the music was so distracting.

[@AustinIuliano]

I've been told this once or twice. Sadly, I can't fix it now that it is live on the internet.

[@sommvibes]

Thanks Austin 🏆

[@fjz3364]

Thank you. I am giving my first speech in about three weeks time!!! Best luck to myself 😊😊😊

[@tonygeishauser6909]

The music in this video is way too loud. Had to leave after 30 seconds.

[@AustinIuliano]

I've been told that shit happens and I can't change it now. Thanks anyways.

[@silverrl]

You can mute the video and read the transcript. Or put in the CC.

[@abroadlife2745]

Background sound is so annoying.tooloud

[@sparav]

Bad background music. Why is it this loud

[@TheAsim006]

Noisy loud background music

[@BarbaraMoore-s9y]

Daija Streets

[@SeviYoga]

It's hard time focusing on the content because of loud music in the background

[@johngrote8404]

Great content. Please when doing videos where there is a lot of dialogue drop the music mix so that it doesn't compete with the information that is being given!!!

[@robertpalmatier2699]

I was doing toastmasters but never get to actually make it due to work. These videos are great.

[@arbonneladyTN]

Very helpful… starting out this week!

what was/is your icebreaker speech about? Leave a comment and help newbies get an idea!

[@MoveInSilence23]

Mine was called " I Am Nothing". A bit of a reversal of an Icebreaker. It was motivational, it was funny- it was more than 7 minutes.

[@AustinIuliano]

@@MoveInSilence23 Congratulations! I hope you got some good feedback. My club records the talks and uploads them to a private KZbin, so we can go and watch ourselves. Did you by chance get to do that?

[@MoveInSilence23]

@@AustinIuliano I'll have to check. I'm still learning here. I really like Toastmasters.
