After the talk, Modupe explains a similar approach in academia called the "Grandma test," and how public speaking can be as simple as a conversation with grandma.

It looks like a bicycle, but is it far more than that. It is a time machine, and Tommy is about to take the strangest ride he will ever take in episode 5 of The Sweet Ride.…
