Episode 21: Shaun can't get up
Welcome to Season 3! The first half of this season features Shaun and Sher May (WUDC 2021 Quarterfinalists), who join me in discussing the Singapore Debate Circuit at length, in two marathon recordings that we will release across several episodes. This first episode features their debate experiences in NUS, takeaways from university debating, and the differences between pre-tertiary and university debating. Next up: Listener questions and coaching philosophies!

20-- Suneeti Sreekumar: "Breaking was a bonus, but it was never the final objective..."
The finale of Season 2 is very much a "lost" episode-- it was supposed to be released in September of 2021, but it stayed in the vault for a good 9 months beyond that due to my other commitments. I spoke to Suneeti Sreekumar, ex-President of NJC Debate and current Oxford Law undergraduate, back in August to talk about her experiences in NJC Debate across 6 years. She talked about the challenges of keeping afloat a debate club with little access to resources, the surprises and turmoils along her journey, and what current batches of NJC-ians and other debaters can take away about how to run a debate society at the pre-university level. (P.S Many apologies to Suneeti, who had to wait many months for this episode to be released!)
Also coming up-- Season 3! The first episode of the new format (a serialized conversation with two stalwarts of the SG circuit across multiple episodes) will be released in only a matter of weeks. Till then, stay tuned!
