here on ftf, we've mainly discussed the ins and outs of the debate space; speech isforeign to our podcast. however, speech and debate go hand-in-hand. that's why we've invited our friend, daniel rupawalla, who is (mainly) an extemper, to share his insight and experiences with the speech world. we hope you're just as excited as we are to learn more about the other half of this activity!
