Get to the room and open up the hangout. Click the 'go live' button to start the hangout. Do not click the 'start broadcast' button yet.
Make sure the presenters are in the hangout. Invite them to the hangout by adding them or by sharing the link, and check that they're able to join and that you can hear and see them.
Get someone else in the room to join the hangout "as the room" so they can display the #remotemeetup slack channel on the room monitor. This person will also be in charge of reading the channel and bringing questions into the discussion as appropriate. You can also display the hangout stream but remember it almost always lags a minute or two behind.
Set up the room microphone and have everyone inside the room mute their computer's microphones.
- Post slides and Hangout URLs to Slack #remotemeetup channel.
Start the meetup when the time comes!
