    Episode 9: Language and Crime

    This week we delve into the word of the law! Who dunnit? We don't know but it'll probably change how we talk about it! We pull apart a few legal binaries, flip the language of 'riots' on it's head and learn that 'farting with intent' is in fact a chargeable offence! It's a long one so turn up the speed, make a cuppa and reassess the way you consume media!

    Episode 7: Language and Gender

    I am woman hear me roar - not too loudly though, please. This episode we engage in a whole lot of womansplaining on gender. How does our language contribute to gender stereotypes, is gender neutral language important and what's the deal with toxic masculinity? We're over ambitious with content this week, but I guess that's because we're just two 'rabid' feminists frothing at the brain ;).
