@holland_tom @RUGEnglish had a great set up where I prerecorded the lecture and the scheduled hour for the lecture became a Q&A with the students about the content. Prerecorded lectures don’t have to be dead entities. This headline is also, as people have commented, so misleading.

Another thrilling hour reading Sir Gawain and the Green Knight at @RUGEnglish ! Enjoyed reading the description of the "big green ogre" entering the court. (Un)fortunately, in this day and age, that kind of description only invites Shrek comments
