Radio show, Monday December 28

Even though everyone is home for Christmas break, we did the WFTR radio show...and we even had a special guest! John Holsinger, who was an R-MA student and a champion Debater for the last two years but is going to Sherando this year, joined Valerie and me for an hour of current events and reminiscing about the joys of Debate tournaments. Here's the link to the podcast.

First radio show podcast

Here is a the link to the first podcast of our WFTR radio show last Monday. There was a technical glitch that cut out the last 15 minutes or so, unfortunately.

We had a great time, and it was one of the best shows I can remember. We'll just keep getting better from here!

We're back on the air!

We've finally gotten our biweekly radio show organized again! These have been a ton of fun in previous years, and we're all excited about doing it again.

The first edition of the R-MA Debate Team Radio Forum will premiere at 1800 on Monday, December 14, on WFTR AM. The show will be recorded as an MP3 for podcasting, and we'll link it here as soon as the podcast is available.

It's cold up here

Well, we made it through the out rounds. None of our teams broke, but we did better than average with high speaker points. Good thing it was cold enough this morning that everyone brought their coats; the blizzard hit around 2pm. Late rounds were tough since we were in buildings all over campus. But we're all back at the Staybridge Suites safe and sound, dry and warm, flopping onto beds and dreaming about the hotel's breakfast tomorrow morning. We're going to take it easy on the trip home tomorrow, the Interstates will be clear.

We're in Princeton!

Breakfast in New Jersey, of all places. We're at the Princeton Classic tournament, getting fueled up at the excellent Staybridgde Suites. Registration in an hour; first Public Forum round at 1700. We have three PF teams: McGraw-Pedersen, Christoph-Jin, and Vaughn-Pratt. It's a major event with 45 other schools from as far away as Colorado. Gorgeous campus, beautiful day, and we're already having a great time.
