Learning to interrupt gracefully is a skill
(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
Pro-tip: Asking permission to interrupt to say your bit goes down much much better than just interjecting
You need to gesture like you want to talk, it’s kind of a lean and eye contact thing, open mouth as well.
The only way I can picture this: Face the talker, lean forward at the hip joint as far as balance allows, rotate both arms like V-22 Osprey propellers, mouth wide open without making a sound.
Basically that image, but dial it back 1000%

How can I do that in a phone call?
That's the best part, you don't!
It helps me a lot to look at myself in a mirror when making a phonecall
A long uhhhhhmmmm until they stop talking
It's not something the Jedi would tell you.
Wait, this is a thing people do when they want to say something? Shit, I need to reevaluate some things. Socializing is hard.
Me when I indicate I want to talk, but they have already changed topic.
