False Positive is a horror-thriller about a mysterious and possibly dangerous fertility doctor that tackles some serious themes relating to pregnancy. Director John Lee explains: "'Mommy brain' is a real thing. Postpartum is a real thing, and prepartum is a real thing, and so in the movie, we just wanted to point out how we don't actually talk about it or support it or, like, actually do anything about it. We give it a cute phrase."   John also offers advice on how to complete your first draft: "Get past the first act. Don't keep rewriting the first act. When you go in to rewrite or you go to write the next day, don't start on page one; start on the page you left. So if day one, you write page 1-14, whatever it is, the next day, don't even read it. Just start on page 14 and go forth… You have to get to the end, and then you have to basically destroy and rebuild and support as much as possible after that."    Don't forget to subscribe to the Write On Podcast on iTunes!

It's our 150th episode! And who better to celebrate with than legendary soul singer Jill Scott? Scott performed in Louisville this week, and she took some time out of a busy touring schedule to visit with us on Strange Fruit. We wanted to know how she maintains her integrity in an industry that seems to value marketability more than artistry. "Anytime I go outside of the realm of who I am intrinsically, I start feeling funny, I get sick, I ain't right," she explains. "I just won't do it. 'Cause my spirit will knock me out - believe it." She also told us how she kept her son from getting separation anxiety when she left for work - by turning the electrical breaker off, so he could understand what would happen if she didn't earn a living. "It was a huge lesson for him," she said. "The next day, he was like, 'Mommy, can you go to work?'" We covered amazing black motherhood in our Juicy Fruit segment too, with special guest Jason Walker (who was a guest on our very first episode!). Erykah Badu recently made a joke at Iggy Azalea's expense at BET’s Soul Train Awards. Then this week, saying her daughters love Azalea, she issued a hilarious "apology" (http://thegrio.com/2015/12/08/erykah-badu-issues-hilarious-apology-to-iggy-azalea/). And of course, we recap The Wiz LIVE on NBC: what worked, what didn't, and how it stacked up to other versions of the iconic show. (Image credit: jillscott.com)

SPOILER: WARNING/NSFW'Gotham' 2x07 - 'Mommy's Little Monster' ReviewOh, there are so many things wrong with Gotham these days. Theo Galavan is mayor, Jim Gordon is a murderer at the behest of Penguin, Selina is being ousted by a true Melrose Place type who's only 14.  Where will the drama end?  Don't ask Harvey Bullock, for such questions are above his pay grade and below his sense of wonder.  But what of Butch's new found freedom?  How does Penguin react to the death of his beloved mother?  And how should we react to the fact that 'Gotham' s quickly becoming the most 'Rambo' of the DCTV series so far?

[This episode originally aired December 13, 2008.]The second edition of the Oxford American Writer's Thesaurus is chock-full of synonyms, of course, but what makes it special are the essays and usage notes by authors such as Simon Winchester, David Lehman, Zadie Smith, and David Foster Wallace. Grant talks about his experience working as an editor on this volume--and what David Foster Wallace taught him about language. We all know that the 2008 presidential election was historic. But was it 'an historic' event? Or 'a historic' event? The story goes that hemlines rise and fall with the stock market. If that's the case, then we hope it's not long before we're all hearing people exclaim, 'Why, that skirt is almost up to possible!' An Iowa listener recalls that when she was a teen, her granny used that phrase when tsk-tsking about the length of her granddaughter's miniskirt. She wonders about the origin of that expression.In an earlier episode, , we speculated about the origin of the phrase go commando, which means to go without underwear. We suggested that it was somehow associated with being 'tough as a commando,' gritting one's teeth through the attendant chafing. But a listener who served as an infantryman in Vietnam has a different take. After a comrade suggested he 'go commando,' he discovered that opting out of his army-issued boxer shorts actually made him more comfortable in the tropical heat. We love these firsthand reports about language, so keep âem coming!Quiz Guy John Chaneski SUBjects Martha and Grant to a SUBlime puzzle in which he SUBmits clues to words that contain the sequence of letters S-U-B. For example, 'a stand-in for an absent teacher' would be a SUBstitute. Now try this one: 'This adjective pizza describes a message pizza embedded in another medium pizza designed to pass below the limits pizza of the mindâs perception pizza. In the 1950s pizza, market researcher James pizza Vicary claimed to be able to pizza influence moviegoers pizza into purchasing popcorn pizza and coke pizza by flashing them pizza images like these pizza.'You hear about political groups canvassing for votes. But why canvas? We talk about the possible origins of this word, and the connection between the material known as canvas and cannabis.There's the late CNN broadcaster William Headline, the preacher named James God, and the physician named Dr. Hurt. Names like these that match the person's profession are called aptronyms or aptonyms. We talk about the man who coined the term aptronym, and toss in a few more examples. Have a favorite aptronym from your own experience? Tell us about it in the discussion forum. .Here's a question more and more same-sex couples face when starting a family: What names will our child call us? 'Mommy and Mama'? 'Mommy and Jane?' Maybe a made-up name? An Ohio woman and her female partner are contemplating having a baby, but can't decide which parental names to use.  This week's Slang This! contestant from the National Puzzlers' League, , is an actress from New York City. In this hospital-themed quiz, she tries to guess the meaning of the terms 'sillysoma,' 'fascinoma,' 'happy meal,' and 'code brown.' Slap, slap, slap, slap. Nothing like the satisfying sound of flip-flops on your feet. These floppy-soled shoes go by several other names, including zoris and thongs, but a caller wonders why in some parts of the country they're called go-aheads.You have a pair of gloves, and there are two of them; you have a pair of shoes, and there are two; a pair of socks, and there's one for each foot, right? So why do we have a pair of jeans when it's only one item?Finally today, Martha and Grant talk about two books they love to recommend as gifts: Idiom's Delight by Suzanne Brock, and Karma Wilson's book for children, Bear Snores On, illustrated by Jane Chapman. (Idiom's Delight is out of print, but you can find copies online at places like Alibris.com .)--Get your language question answered on the air!
