Pench -

Ensure it is at the same time/same place (virtual or physical). That reduces one source of confusion for the team.

I also like to start it a few minutes into the hour (e.g. 10:05 AM instead of 10 AM) to give folks a chance to assemble and to collect their thoughts on what they are going to share.
