We discuss the words within the book, the attraction to obscure words from earlier iterations of our fine language, and the origins of such. I mention words that I can see returning to current lexicon, as well as the grand and excellent layout of the book itself. Join us as we explore better and more eloquent saying than the ones I use really, really, really often, even in this show.</p> https://wesu.streamrewind.com/https://wesu.streamrewind.com/bookmarks/listen/393987 Sun, 05 Nov 2023 18:30:00 GMT
