S1:E3 – What is Deliberative Rhetoric?

Are you a member of the Roman Senate and need advice on how to propose a plan of action to achieve some ends? Well, this episode is for you. This episode is sponsored by Toga City. For all your toga needs, go to Toga City. 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, some untranslated Latin or Greek, and then some tasty extra bonus content: a fallacy, a historical tidbit, or a stylistic device to help improve your own rhetoric. Whether you listen for fun or to learn the difference between Hermagoras of Temnos from Hermogenes of Tarsus, we hope you enjoy our podcast and support our made up sponsors. Dave & Tim are professors of communication in New Jersey. After each show, they get a cheeseburger and celebrate the time Tim was on Wheel of Fortune in the early 80s.
