Etymology (WORD ORIGINS) with Helen Zaltzman of The Allusionist Podcast
b"The brilliant and dazzling Helen Zaltzman, host of The Allusionist podcast and person who technically for a living researches the origins of language and thus is an etymologist, visits Alie's apartment to chat about various word origins, gender in language, the Bible a.k.a. The Oxford English Dictionary, origins of the filthiest slang, emoji decoding, mediocrity, step parents, babies wearing glasses, Greek kimonos, the romance of languages and the fundamental truth that language is always changing whether you want it to or not. Also tomatoes, pliable boobs, avocados, and fish trails.\\n\\n\\n\\n\\nThe Allusionist Podcast, HelenZaltzman.com\\n\\nFollow Helen on Twitter & Instagram\\n\\nSponsor links:\\xa0TrueandCo.com/ologies (code: ologies) & Amazon.com/popchips (code: 20ologies)\\n\\nThis week's donation was made to POPStheclub.com\\n\\nMore links at\\xa0alieward.com/ologies/etymology\\n\\nBecome a patron of Ologies for as little as a buck a month:\\xa0www.Patreon.com/ologies\\n\\nOlogiesMerch.com\\xa0has hats, shirts, pins, totes!\\n\\nFollow @Ologies on\\xa0Twitter\\xa0or\\xa0Instagram\\n\\nFollow @AlieWard on\\xa0Twitter\\xa0or\\xa0Instagram\\n\\nSound editing by\\xa0Jarrett Sleeper\\xa0of\\xa0MindJam Media\\xa0&\\xa0Steven Ray Morris\\n\\nTheme song by Nick Thorburn\\n\\nSupport the show: http://Patreon.com/ologies"
