A student speaker argues Friday the 13th is extremely unlucky citing religious and historical examples. The negative refutes, proposing Friday the 18th is not unlucky and noting American numbers and symbols perceived as lucky. The exchange ends with a cue to avoid superstition and a reminder of an upcoming Friday the 18th.
