How Do You Organize a Speech?

In this episode, we discuss speech arrangement as theorized by Aristotle and Cicero (although it’s not really Cicero). We start our journey at the prologue, visit the narratio, we drive slowly past the division, take some time at the arguments and rebuttal, and we end at the end because that’s the best place to end. Dr. Dave explains the Golf Pencil Rule and Dr. Tim explains Nestorian Order. This episode is sponsored by Insurance Insurance. When your insurance fails, Insurance Insurance can give you peace of mind, guaranteed. The untranslated Latin/Greek phrase is, “Pecuniam dare. Nos postulo caseum et cibum” Rhetoric-O-Rama is a fun and educational introduction to rhetoric by two college professors, Dr. David R. Dewberry and Dr. Tim "As Seen on TV" McGee. Each episode features a discussion on some aspect of rhetoric and then offers some tasty extra bonus content: a fallacy, a historical tidbit, or a stylistic device to help improve your own rhetoric. David R. Dewberry and Tim McGee are professors of communication at Rider University. After each show, they get a cheeseburger and celebrate the time Tim was on Wheel of Fortune in the early 80s.
