Word!

Thank you Carrie and Megan for creating an educational and entertaining show about the function and power of language as it relates to our daily lives as well as the world at large! We’ve learned a lot about the way language reveals and conceals truth, evokes privilege, influences identity and culture, and just generally shapes the way we think. Keep on keeping on!!

Keep Up the Great Work!

Love this podcast! Shines a light on the expectations and perceptions we place on others, and in an informative, educational way, gives us tools for undoing our biases. Bravo, ladies!

Learning so much!

I love challenging my own linguistic biases and learning about origins, accents, patterns and changes in language through each episode. Entertaining and educational- my favorite combination!
