As someone who hasn’t take a rhetoric class since undergrad, but is super interested in understanding public dialogue, this podcast has been both helpful and engaging. Sometimes Dr. Thorpe gives us context or theory to help us make sense of general principles of democracy, other times she deconstructs a specific recent event. I am a professor who teaches about leadership and interpersonal communication, but have shared multiple episodes with students to help them understand and draw connections to our other course content. Dr. Thorpe and the Kairoticast crew are also super receptive to feedback and ideas, so definitely reach out to them!

Great resource for those of us who teach rhetoric! Online resources like this are perfect for hybrid and online course delivery.
