INSIGHT

Storytelling As World-Building

  • Storytelling is world-building that invites the audience to enter your imagined world.
  • When listeners see that world, they decide whether to join and further the story in meaningful ways.
ADVICE

Follow A Five-Part Story Framework

  • Use the five-part Competitive Storytelling framework: goal, emotion, hook, theme, dismount.
  • Work strategy first, then build tactical pieces to form the story's skeleton.
ANECDOTE

Reframing A Jury With One Theme

  • Robbie used the theme "vengeance is not justice" in a murder defense closing to reframe the jury's role.
  • Repeating that theme and ending with a dismount question helped secure a not-guilty verdict.
