Hello Everyone!
I hope someone can help me and I am going to try to explain what I want to do the best I can. I use my PC web cam to record videos I up load to YouTube. My wife and I talk about different topics. We want to teach people how to use certain apps. I was wondering if there is a way to continue to record using our web cam and record the screen from our cell phone at the same time so we can show how to use the app? Thank you.

The most simple app to get an Android screen to the PC in my opinion is scrcpy: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy
No bloatware, no convoluted stuff, just the Android screen. Has quite some fancy command line options for advanced stuff.
Works best as Game Capture source in OBS Studio.
Even works remotely via tcp/ip instead of USB connection if you are in the same WiFi network, so you can carry your smartphone around. Absolutely perfect.

Read the installation instructions carefully, especially the part about how to enabe USB debugging, in the Requirements section at the top of the github description of scrcpy.
