Phil calls his style
"Destitainment" : combination of relevant information mixed with humor. Laugh and Learn!! Phil has extreme variety in his program offerings which total approximately 70 at this time, special interest and destination. (Even the best turkey gets old after a few days). They include all the hottest topics, such as, The Bermuda Triangle, Caribbean Pirates, Creatures of the Deep, History of the Mediterranean, The Historic Panama Canal, Spinoffs of NASA, and 6 talks on Alaska, plus many more. A complete and current list available on request. He even has a talk called Scratch and Sniff (about cats and dogs) and Voodoo for New Orleans. The perfect speaker for crossings!
Phil has traveled extensively ( 53 countries to date), including Australia, Indonesia, Singapore, Belgium, France, Holland, Ireland, Scotland, England, Norway, Denmark, The Mediterranean, and of course, the Caribbean and USA. He has talks available on most of these destinations.
Work experience includes Biosynthesis research, Pharmacy owner, Emergency Medical Technician, school board VP, graduate clown and of course public speaking.
Phil's goal is to Make Memorable Moments and he's very good at that. Accolades are MANY. Example: A couple on a two week cruise said they had been traveling around the world for over 30 years evaluating speakers and had heard none better. The Marella cruise line cruise director said he was Phenomenal! The list of accolades is long.
He can provide a pdf of all slides of a particular presentation topic to the cloud for a cruise lines viewing on request.
Experience: 60+ cruise contracts on 8 cruise lines + over 20 research cruises. Let's do your guests a favor and add to the list!
Retired and available for last minute cancellations.
