The Debate Hour

The Debate Hour features spontaneous, unfiltered debates on current-event topics and popular NSDA PF, Policy, and LD resolutions, all designed to make argumentation more approachable for students. Hosted by Yashnil Mohanty and Jake Oderio, each episode breaks down real-time thinking, structured reasoning, and how anyone can learn to speak with confidence.
