Recording and transcribing a meeting to create meeting minutes

[Danbor]

I'm not sure how I got into this situation, but here I am. I'm a member of a Veterans group and, somehow, I been tasked with keeping the minutes of our monthly meetings. A task I know nothing about.
Is there a combination of bluetooth or USB microphone and software that is compatible with Mint running on my Toshiba laptop that I can use to record and transcribe these meetings? Does such a thing even exist?

I do Know of Zoom having these abilities, but I'd try it out first. I only remember about seeing the banner in school when the Meetings were started. Just a staring point to look into.
