Rhetoric O Rama
A Podcast About All Things Rhetoric
Rhetoric-O-Rama is a fun and educational introduction to rhetoric by two college professors, Dr. David R. Dewberry and Dr. Tim "As Seen on TV" McGee (Tim was on Wheel of Fortune in the early 80s). Episodes feature a discussion on some aspect of rhetoric, some untranslated Latin or Greek, some tasty bonus content: a fallacy, a historical tidbit, or a stylistic device to help improve your rhetoric. Whether you listen to have fun or to learn the differences between Hermagoras of Temnos and Hermogenes of Tarsus, we hope you enjoy our podcast and support our made-up sponsors.

S3:E1 – The Rhetoric of Movie Reviews

In this episode, we analyze one of the most ubiquitous forms of criticism, the Movie Review, addressing such important questions as who the heck do the reviewers think they are, and whose side are they really on, anyway.

Rhetoric-O-Rama is a fun and educational introduction to rhetoric by two college professors, Dr. David R. Dewberry and Dr. Tim "As Seen on TV" McGee. Each episode features a discussion on some aspect of rhetoric and then offers some tasty extra bonus content: a fallacy, a historical tidbit, or a stylistic device to help improve your own rhetoric.

David R. Dewberry and Tim McGee are professors of communication at Rider University. After each show, they get a cheeseburger and celebrate the time Tim was on Wheel of Fortune in the early 80s.
