I would consider watching that hypothetical show, despite what I just said. Guess it depends on the guests and the topic.
My ma was on a debate team in college, I think she may have even been captain at one point

That’s how I got into it. We had a formal debate project in high school (none in college unfortunately, but I didn’t sign up for the team), and I went against a big nerd who was talking a lot of smack about how he was gonna win. Our topics and position (you have to be able to debate either side) were assigned without our say so. I was given anti-euthanasia. It is actually against my position (I am pro-euthanasia if the person has horrible medical quality of life only), yet I still won

Debate teams in college are incredibly competitive, national competitions and all that
