  • Soundbites and retribution
    Feb 6 2025

    The Wordy Birds adopt some irksome accents in this week's episode, the last in the series. It's a mixed bag of famous soundbites, retro political slogans and catchphrases that remind us how efficient and memorable language can be. It all soon drizzles into cheery nonsense though, with shenanigans in the daylight, brother/sister bands, and beard fear. Also, listen out for hints on deploying small acts of retribution, as well as dubious feedback from our listeners!

  • Word chains and rock gods
    Jan 6 2025

    This week we look at how we express ourselves and make connections when we consider words and descriptive phrases in a chain of meaning. What do we understand by clever, intelligent, brainy and canny; funny, hilarious, wry and amusing? And how do you feel about idioms, or about being in a 'situationship' or in 'beast mode'? The Wordy Birds grapple with this, as well as banana hammocks and rock gods in this latest episode.
