This special edition of The 3NR Podcast features a discussion between Scott Phillips, Maggie Berthiaume, and James Herndon, the Senior Program Associate and Debate Coach at Emory University in Atlanta. One of the judges of the final round of this past season’s Tournament of Champions, James was previously a highly-successful coach at Chattahoochee High School where he qualified 18 teams for the TOC over a four-year period. While at Emory he has coached a Copeland Award winning team and several elimination round qualifiers at the National Debate Tournament. The discussion focuses on politics disadvantages—especially the Midterms DA—and will be invaluable for students competing at tournaments before the November elections.
