can someone refresh me on what to do if the recording has 2 speakers talking back and forth to each other. do we type "speaker 1: blah blah" or something like that?

Yes, just like that.
Speaker 1: blah blah blah
Speaker 2: yada yada

I thought we were supposed to type "Next Speaker" now, for everyone after the first speaker (who would just be "Speaker", I guess). But I haven't typed in a while, so I haven't read the rules lately.

I received this email on how to address the speaker/ new speaker.. please correct me if there is a newer email regarding this issue

Formatting: You should start typing speaker's names when they are known, and "Next Speaker"
when the names are not specified in the recording or not known.

This is what I have on my notes:

• If you encounter a file that has multiple speakers, indicate speaker 1 and speaker 2, or
use their names if you know them. Start each speaker with a new line. Be sure to
double space between speakers. Example:
Speaker 1 How are you today?
Speaker 2 I am doing fine, thank you. How are you?
Speaker 1 Doing wonderful.

Hope it helps.
