Topics Catalog

We tell the stories behind history helping our audiences laugh, wonder and enjoy learning about a wide variety of subjects. There are plenty of details in the stories shared, yet the audience gains the big picture outlook on the topic.  We have developed a diverse selection of presentations that can delight almost any audience.

Some organizations hire us to present monthly entertaining talks to their residents. Libraries and community centers engage us to present topics that align with quarterly themes; others use our catalog of speaker topics to solve a unique need for an entertaining discussion.  How can we help you?
