Episode 17: Israel Beltran

For years, Israel Beltran was just another Chicano from East LA, who loved to daydream, until he discovered the world of forensics.  He has been blessed to receive awards from national forensic tournaments such as Phi Rho Pi and NFA.  Israel strives to teach his students how to better understand who they are, share their stories, and master the power of rhetoric.

In this episode, Robert and Israel discuss the differences of small teams and big teams, moving out of Phi Rho Pi and into NFA, and the struggles of getting English lessons from New York rappers.  Listen for free through Apple Podcasts, GooglePlay, Overcast, Podbean, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.
