The SoapBox. (aka the Orators platform)

A SoapBox is a raised platform on which one stands to make an impromptu speech, often about a political subject. The term originates from the days when speakers would elevate themselves by standing on a wooden crate originally used for shipment of soap.

Use this to pass between family members at the table, or in the conference room at the board meetings to show who has the floor, as they are the one currently on the SoapBox!

Keep a Bar of Soap, on the platform inside, in the event someone has a dirty mouth and needs to washed it out. If what they say disgusts you so much that you have clean off the accumulated poop or you loose your position/opinion and end up taking a bath.
