I can confirm the meeting invite is set 11:00 AM Eastern on every other week. But the reference to “EST” is technically incorrect since we're currently on EDT (UTC−4) and could cause confusion. Are the meetings anchored to UTC or the Eastern time zone? If the meetings are anchored to the Eastern timezone, then changing it to ET and linking to a time zone converter could relieve some confusion.
