IT'S FINALLY HERE! The complete guide to original oratory is coming out TOMORROW - Thursday, August 1st at 3:00pm EST. Additionally, I plan on releasing a new video covering different topics in oratory, different speech events, and public speaking in general EVERY THURSDAY at 3:00pm EST, along with a new short EVERY SINGLE DAY. Apologies that this took so long. I realized that if I wanted to do this, it would have to be done right to give you the best information possible. Thank you all for your patience!
I’ve been a speech judge for about three years, and this is probably one of my favorite oratories - and as a former oratory competitor myself, you sure make this look easy. It is also great educational footage to show someone new to oratory what a high skill level looks like. From a technical perspective, the way you walk across the stage and then return to your first point after your “thank you” joke in the introduction is very well executed and a clever way to move in your space while still staying within your introduction area. Your vocal quality, energy and tone is all at a very high level and it’s impressive how calm you are as you pull this all off. The ending is emotionally powerful and very real, and solid pauses that add depth, and loved the humor throughout. I wanted to be sure to note for everyone that this is what oratory looks like at a top competitive level. This is up there as one of my all time favorite oratories. Thank you for posting for all to see.
As a middle school coach, thank you for posting your Original Oratory on UA-cam that is fabulous, performed flawlessly, informative, complex, yet on a topic that I can actually, per district restrictions, show my 6th graders. You did a wonderful job, and while not your coach, as a former competitor myself, I'm proud of you.
Headed to Nats ‘23 for Oratory in a couple months and I’m still getting chills from this even though I’ve seen it like 6 times. So good man, you are an inspiration
I’m preparing for my first ever speech competition and I’m finishing up writing my original oratory and this has me crying. The ending was powerful and makes me feel for all the seniors on my team.
I can't believe I didn't think to ask about this before, but question... Did any judge take your opening joke literally and start to call out your time before you returned?

Best of luck!
Are you going to NSDA Nats in Phoenix or NCFL Nats in Louisville? If it's the latter I'll be there too!
I am doing an OO next year, and I've been watching a lot of OOs to help me write one. Your OO is by far my favorite.
I’m preparing for my first ever speech competition and I’m finishing up writing my original oratory and this has me crying. The ending was powerful and makes me feel for all the seniors on my team.
I love your speech! I am part of Speech and Debate and you are my inspiration bro!
UPDATE: I know I promised this almost a year ago, but a full how-to guide on OO from start to finish is in the works! Stay tuned!!
This is good news as I have three kids who have started trying to write OO/OA speeches for our April tournament.
Hey man, this video was great and has been inspirational in me joining speech & debate. Thank you!
