Nice interview guys.

Soon as you said "Toastmaster from Georgia" I thought of Dwayne, so I was happy that was how it turned out. I've never heard him speak, so I look forward to your upcoming interview.

Carmine was informative and played along well.

As for the C&L manual, that conversation is a bundle of fireworks waiting to go off. It does get better in projects 9 & 10.

We have all been there.  We sat through speeches we really didn't want to because the topic was either inappropriate or just plain boring. Join our guest Bill Daisak who gives a real yet amusing insight into choosing the right topic or at least making your topic of choice right for your audience.

Ryan and Bo - this was an excellent podcast. I enjoyed the bit about rhetorical questions, and the interview was very interesting, helpful...and funny!

Hey Bo and Ryan,

 Enjoyed listening to the Bill Daisak interview.  Ryan, as usual, posed some insightful observation/questions.  And Bo provided just the right lightness to the segment.

 We all had some degree of awareness of much of what we heard Bill say.  Nonetheless, it's good to be reminded of keys to preparing a good speech.
