Season 6 of the One Clap Speech and Debate Podcast is now upon us with the spooky arrival of Camp One Clap 2: The Clapocalypse! Celebrate achievements, overcome fears, and amplify your voice with Camp One Clap 2024. The journey starts right now with an orientation episode with Camp Director and host of One Clap, Lyle Wiley.
Good morning, Campers!
What if you could conquer your deepest fears in speech and debate and emerge victorious? One Clap Speech and Debate has this question in mind with a Season 6 launch into a clappifying, terrifying theme—Camp One Clap 2: The Clapocalypse. The aim of this season of One Clap is to help you amplify your voice and overcome your fears, and we are going to leap right into that at Camp! Today's episode is an orientation of sorts... perhaps a warning... of the terrors to come in the Clapocalypse.
First and foremost, the orientation episode kicks off by celebrating the achievements of the speech and debate community at the NSDA Nationals held in Des Moines. This culminating event saw participants from all over the country where competitors once again made their mark on the national stage. Whether you are a national champion, a dedicated coach, or a brave competitor, your contributions and unwavering dedication to the art of public speaking are appreciated and deserving of recognition. Congratulations to all participants - every voice in this activity matters and makes the world a better place.
After this celebration, we take a quick moment to access One Clap Speech and Debate up to this point. This little project that started in March of 2020 still has some legs, and hopefully remains a helpful and uplifting resource for competitors and coaches!
Let’s take a gander at some stats:
204 episodes (counting this one)
Over 41 thousand total podcast downloads
Over 250 blog posts on the website
Active social media platforms on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and (kind of) YouTube.
And more stickers… because who doesn’t love stickers?
One Clap is moving up, and the plan is to keep it rolling into a lockin'-and-poppin' Season 6 for the ages! Thank you to everyone who has made this project a helpful resource!
