High School Debate at 350 wpm - Wired

A Wired short on competitive high school policy debate, where students speak at around 350 words per minute. It shows how a nerdy contest turned into a high-speed spectacle.

HN mostly cites it as an example of speed-talking debate, usually critically, in threads about the Gish gallop and debate culture.
