This is my current favorite tripod. It’s super lightweight, deploys quickly, and has a holder for your phone as well as cold shoes so you can add lights or the receiver for your Rode GO II wireless mic kit.

This USB-C wireless mic kit is my current favorite. I love the hard-shell charging case because you can drop it into a pocket or backpack and be set up to record in no time. This mic, a phone, and a tripod are all you really need! Comes with wind muffs.

The main thing I like is that I can fit all of my phone gear in the bag, making it super easy to grab and go.

Check it out on Amazon. Photo to follow. 

I have owned and tested a number of Powerdewise products, and while I haven’t tried this new model, I’m confident it will do the job. Once cool thing is this version works with both iPhones and Android phones (USB-C with a Lightning adapter).

This is my favorite wired lapel mic. With the dual lapel microphone set, you get clear sound and don’t need to move one mic from subject to subject You could get the single mic version, but having two mics gives you more flexibility, and the single version only saves a few dollars.
