S2:E3 – What is the Jeremiad?

In this episode, we discuss the jeremiad and how it transitioned from being really religious to just kinda religious. Then how it was not religious but still religious by a little bit. Tim sings and Dave talks about his favorite public library in northern Minnesota. 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.
