Joel was a guest speaker of the day is a DTM, who also happens to be travelling to see Avital during this time, as he is her dad. During his speech, he talked about the ten principles of communication.To demonstrate his point of interruptions, he picked up his phone during the speech and pretended to be distracted for a second. Kathleen complimented the structure of his speech, comparing the ten principles of communication to the how the ten commandments were structured.

The Table Topics master of the day was Peter, who felt like it was random question day. Viki, a past member and a guest, talked about how she was sleepy this morning, but likes to take naps after staying up late. Paul was the winner of table topics, as he debated the benefits between using pencils and pens. He said that it would be better to use a pen to ask a question like Will you marry me?
