If you’ve never attended a Toastmasters conference or convention, you don’t know what you’ve missed until you attend your first one - then you’re hooked. Why listen to me when you can hear from attendees themselves. Our Guests on today’s Toastcast: Ganga Dekka, Colt Discovery, just attended his first. Alex Neilson, New Entrepreneurs Toastmasters, attended 2, and the Idea Man himself, Bob Hooey Accredited Speaker and Past District Governor, who really can’t remember how many he attended. When you’re done, make sure you also listen to Volume 8 - the D42 Spring Convention. Listen and Enjoy [Vol#9]
