Pre-submit checklist

Check every item before submitting.

I have clearly defined my speaking scenario (who I'm speaking to / estimated number of people / purpose).I have designed an opening hook matched to the scenario (60–90 seconds, not a book-summary-style opener).My script includes the four-part body: Cognitive Revolution → Imagined Order → Agricultural Revolution Trap → Window of Intelligent Design.I have chosen at least one contemporary real-world case and clearly tied it to a specific argument in the book (not just using historical cases from the book).My script includes at least one interactive reflection segment that gets the audience talking.I have given the audience a specific thinking tool they can 'use tonight.'My script's total time does not exceed 10 minutes (word-for-word about 1500–2000 words, or bullet points with time stamps summing to ≤ 10 min).This script is not a summary or book report of *Sapiens*, but a speech tailored to a specific audience and scenario.
