23.01.2022 One of the things affected by Covid19 is that Toastmasters International have reluctantly suspended printing of the "Toastmaster" monthly magazine for now. But you can still read the same content in the digital edition, stronger than ever, and available free to anyone at https://www.toastmasters.org/magazine And there are videos and resources in the digital edition which you won't see in print. Read it online, or download as a PDF.
