I should have added that if I am wrong and "Why I love Lisp" would not
just make people roll their eyes, I have a fun talk in which I reinvent
Cells (in primitive form) over the keyboard while you watch. This
manages to touch on macros, special variables, anonymous functions,
CLOS, and of course RAD all in very short order, and everything gets
pulled in for a reason (ie, it's all nicely motivated, not just
gee-whizzing over language features).

How much time do I have?
