Include a list of times or not when sending a networking email?

When I send the initial networking email, should I include a list of available times, or should I ask if they are free to chat in general without specific times?

If you're working in IB, which type of email do you prefer to see?

If you're a student/prospective analyst, which type of email gets a better response rate?

TBH I normally gloss over times -- I would stick to "Tuesday afternoon" "Monday Morning" etc. Also depends on time zone so make sure you do EST/CST when detailing times.
