Tried that with Teams just the other day, sadly no go.

Once when I was triple booked I logged into three Teams meetings simultaneously (laptop, iPad, iPhone) and turned up the volume to create a cacophony of chaos in my home office while I laughed maniacally to myself. Then I took a picture of the setup with my second iPad for my pandemic scrapbook.

I could only listen to two simultaneously… so I would modulate the volume.

My ADHD was screaming reading this but my everything else was clapping and wishing you posted a video link.

Am I misunderstanding something here? This just seems like a bad suggestion from the get go. I have a hard enough time paying attention to a single meeting sometimes and forgetting some of the information. If there were two going simultaneously, I feel that my absorption of the relevant info would be close to 0.

Lol, look at this guy, paying attention to meetings!

Me, I'd be tempted to hook the microphone to the speakers and create a "crossover" meeting and seeing how long it took till someone noticed.
