One thing I notice many callers doing is holding the mic vertically;
holding the mic horizontally in front of your mouth almost always works
better.  (Holding the mic vertically used to be reasonable advice to
avoid pops, but modern mics deal fine with that, and getting the better
signal propagation from a horizontal mic makes more sense.)
