Josh Cooper Speaking Topics

  • Trust But Verify: Why Research Matters Now More Than Ever

    If George Santos has taught us anything over the last two years, it's that we have a duty as Americans to heed Ronald Reagan's 1987 advice to 'trust, but verify.' We live in a digital world full of fake news, foreign influence, and outlandish political attack ads and it's sometimes impossible to trust what we hear and even see. This speech uses real world examples to showcase the importance of political research as the foundation of any political campaign, corporate merger, lawsuit or issue advocacy project and explains how research is used to develop a narrative, beat back attacks and move the numbers in your favor.

  • How I Went From a Regular Dad Grilling in the Backyard to Cooking for Gordon Ramsey on MasterChef to World Champion Pitmaster in Just Two Years

    This speech focuses on my meteoric rise from cooking in the backyard to cooking on TV to winning world cooking championships in just two years. It shows the audience how you can follow your dreams and achieve anything with hard work and a refuse to lose mentality. The lessons in this speech can be applied to any side hustle that can become an additional source of income. This topic is expected to become a book in the not-to-distant future.
