Debaters: Podcasts

This post is just for the debaters.

Here are some public debates hosted by Michael Sandel, a philosophy professor from Harvard University.  They are on large topics that you are likely to see in upcoming debates and are all about 45 min long.  If the ‘bribe people to be healthy’ moot put you off a bit, listen to how these people attacked it.

As you listen focus on the ways that the speakers elaborate on their arguments – rather than just stating a point in one sentence, they develop their argument, build up evidence and fully explain the relevance and importance of their points.
