Voice chat is one of the great features of Discord that often goes underused.

At @thesteemengine, we're all about connecting users in order to improve engagement across Steemit. Yesterday, we hosted the second edition of our new Talk of the Line segment, where we invited members to come on a voice channel in our Discord server and talk about their most recent posts!

@AwakentoLife is back in Croatia in the offseason of his basketball career, so he was back to cohost this week!

I must say, Episode 5 was probably the best session we've had yet! We had a record number of people participating on Discord, with around 25 people in the voice room at the same time!

It was great to hear from a variety of members!

If you missed the segment, you can listen to the entire episode here:

Here's a recap of what you missed:

The Curation Segment:

@crazybgadventure shared about the very interesting topic of psychometry.

@dreemsteem shared about her recent run-in with a delicious-looking gluten-free treat!

@hopehuggs shared about her new initiative to donate votes and SBDs to Venezuelans.

@zen-art (Petra) enlightened us on how to boil water at room temperature!

@calumam shared his first attempt at poetry for this week's Drop in the Ocean topic of encouragement.

@tessaragabrielle shared a recent drawing she made that combines a jack-in-the-box with Medusa.

@andysantics48 shared about some recent packages she received from friends across the globe.

@bafi shared his thoughts on the state of the Steemit platform and why he's considering taking a break.

@artemisnorth shared her recent Shoutout Saturday post in which she challenges everyone to participate!

We heard from @lymepoet about a new book cover and title reveal!

@klynic heated things up with a declaration of love to someone he has strong feelings for.

@magicalmoonlight asks a question we've all wondered about at some point or another...

and finally, we learned about the holiday of Beltane from @zen-art!

Chatter

This was one of the most fun-filled shows we've had so far, which featured many fantastic moments such as @ethandsmith being surprised by @Shadowspub, @klynic igniting a very interesting discussion about what's appropriate as a romantic gesture, and somehow, my YouTube videos made it back for a second week in a row.

We also had a great discussion about the state of Steemit after @bafi shared his recent blog. I encourage you to listen and visit his blog to leave your thoughts.

In Closing

It was another great session. Probably our best yet. It's been very encouraging to see so many people participate in the show! Thanks to everyone who participated and made this show great! We hope to see you next week!
