PLEASE READ: Questions about the Live Show (Patreon)

Last show was the first show where there wasn't enough room and David wasn't able to enter the show. Google Hangouts only allows 10 people in a chat, and as my patron base for that tier is growing a lot, it's time to switch to a new thing.
EDIT: Someone recommended a new website that will allow up to 25 people to chat with video, voice, or typing. Taking a first look, it seems to be exactly what I'm looking for! I think I will have a test with you all to see how to handle a larger group before the Sunday live show. Let me know if you're interested. Maybe on Saturday, just for a few minutes to see how it goes.
There is the built-in YouTube Livestreaming service. It is easy, you don't have to sign up for stuff to see it, and it will automatically record and such. The only thing is that you won't be able to speak out loud, but there is a text chat box.
The main focus will still be interacting with you all and hanging out, not just doing something on camera and ignoring you. There's not a huge delay it seems, so I'll still be able to chill with you in real time.
My question is that, will it bother you to go from speaking to typing? Or is that totally cool with you?
Another option is to set up a Skype call, which allows up to 25 people to voice and video chat. But that would require people getting a Skype account and downloading and if someone was unaware of that requirement beforehand, they would have a whole process to do last minute to join the show. And Skype is also not known for its amazing streaming quality.
What do you guys think? Is there another option that you know of that would solve all the issues? Please let me know!
