My Toastmasters Club
Darren LaCroix, the 2001 Toastmasters World Champion of Public Speaking, is a member of my PowerHouse Pros Toastmasters Club. We’re fortunate to be members of a club with many outstanding speakers.
Darren captured a recent club meeting on video and posted 10 minutes of highlights on YouTube. He included one joke from my Observational Humor monologue where I define the “sandwich technique” for speech evaluation. The sound isn’t perfect but if you turn up the audio it can be easily heard.
If you’re ever in Las Vegas, visit our club on Monday night. We usually have about six guests at a typical meeting and we’d love for you to be one of them!

John’s joke is at about 9:06 in the video.

Can I use the joke about evalutions. It really gets the point across.

Thanks for the post. I enjoyed the video, a nice glimpse of what a meeting is really like. And I’d like to invite you and your readers to check out a couple of other videos related to Toastmasters. The first — ahamoment.com/pg/moments/view/4214 — is one man’s “aha moment” story in which Toastmasters plays a role; and the other — ahamoment.com/pg/moments/view/4453 — is the story of a woman who changed her life through her affiliation with Toastmasters. I hope you like them, as well as the rest of the site, which was created by Mutual of Omaha to highlight inspirational stories and “aha moments” of all kinds.
Thanks,
