Please join me for the 11th episode in the Conversations with Alan series in The Locher Room. I will be speaking with Dr. Dan French, an author, educator and doctor of rhetoric. The Miriam-Webster definition of rhetoric; “often disapproving language that is intended to influence people and that may not be honest or reasonable”. As we approach the first anniversary of the January 6th Capitol insurrection, we will look back on how rhetoric has played a very important and dangerous part in so many historical events.

Dr. French earned his PHD in Rhetoric from the University of South Florida. In May, he released a new book, The 21 Coliseums of Persuasion: Winning Every Battle by Knowing Every Theory. Dr. French also created Rhetoric Warriors to help people who are struggling with the volatile politics that split families, destroy relationships and threaten the foundation of our American Democracy.

Dr. French believes “great persuasion changes everything”. Join us on for a conversation about the power of rhetoric.
