From the publisher
A podcast exploring and interrogating language that we believe is ripe for the reclaiming! In each episode we talk to a bright and brilliant person about their relationship with a specific word, which, usually, has negative connotations. Join us to bask in the glory of all the things that we’re told we shouldn’t think or feel.
