We’ve all been in that position where we are not quite sure what to say. You might just throw your hands up and say, “Oh boy…” But you have nothing to fear because here are the Topoi. This episode is sponsored by WeBePlacebos.com, the "leader in under the counter placebos." The untranslated Latin/Greek phrase is, "παραδειγμάτων δὲ εἴδη δύο: ἓν μὲν γάρ ἐστιν παραδείγματος εἶδος τὸ λέγειν πράγματα προγενομένα, ἓν δὲ τὸ αὐτὸν ποιεῖν.” 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.
