Hello and welcome to the 8th episode of speakeasy, where Josef talks all about Points of Interests. POIs, as we call them, are a critical part of BP debating that allows for diagonal engagement. It is (in Grace’s opinion, at least), one of the most difficult aspects of debating to follow, so be sure to listen carefully!

If you’re looking for this week’s cheat sheet, head to linktr.ee/speakeasydebate and click on “latest podcast.” That will send you to our website where you can find the cheat sheets and the YouTube version of this podcast (which has visuals and subtitles!).

While you’re on our website, did you know that we’ve started a blog series called ”Debate Thoughts”? Debate Thoughts is where Josef and Grace make blog posts on interesting (and often contemporary) debating things that aren’t quite big enough for their own podcast. You can find it on our menu! Earlier this week, Grace posted the first one—it’s on IA’s being paid less in order to maximise profits. You can keep up to date with these blog posts by following us on Twitter (@speakeasydebate). You can also ask questions and/or make suggestions by either Tweeting/DMing us on Twitter, Facebook, or by filling up our contact form. You can find all of those under ”where to find us” on our website.
