Have you ever been criticized for the way you speak? If you have, you're not alone. As human beings, our need to communicate is inherent, but linguistic standards are often indoctrinated in us early on, leading to a perception of slang and informal language as being incorrect. In our latest episode, we explore the true nature of language and its function beyond correctness. We discuss how language is an accident of socio-historical-political factors and how there is nothing intrinsically wrong with slang or informal language. In fact, they serve a purpose, and embracing them can lead to better communication and connections. We also delve into the evolution of language and how words and phrases that were once considered poor speech are now an integral part of standard English. Moreover, we explore how social forces and invasions have led to massive shifts in language, such as the Vikings being responsible for introducing Old Norse words like "window" and "sister" into the English language. Chris Stemp is joined by linguistic expert Valerie Fridland to discuss her new book, Like, Literally, Dude: Arguing for the Good in Bad English, which takes a scientific approach to language and challenges the misconceptions associated with slang and speech features. Join us now as we explore our relationship with language and the nuanced ways in which it affects our interactions. Don't forget to check out Valerie's website at valeriefridland.com and her monthly blog on Language in the Wild. Topics Discussed: Language as a socio-political accident The evolution of slang and speech features The usefulness and function of common phrases like 'like' The changing perception of speech throughout history The role of social forces in language change The impact of social influencers on language The role of children in language change The importance of efficient communication and reducing redundancy in language The challenges of linguistic accommodation Dr. Fridland's book, Like, Literally, Dude: Arguing for the Good in Bad English Support the Show - Become a Patron!

So you're looking and to leave your nine to five job, right? You want to do something else. But, you're probably wondering: "Where do I even start?" You're here because you're not satisfied in your current nine to five job. How can you escape the nine to five and find work you enjoy doing without losing your financial freedom? >> OUR GUEST THIS EPISODE: in today's pilot episode, you'll hear from Chris Stemp about how to quit a well paying job. He was a financial analyst at a fortune 500 company before having a panic attack at work quitting and becoming an entrepreneur and podcaster. If you think you're earning too good money to quit, Chris is your inspiration to do it anyway. Earning the kind of money most people in their early twenties could only dream of. He took the leap when a panic attack helped him realize he was miserable in his job. His podcast: www.smartpeoplepodcast.com >> WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: Why you should be kind to yourself when you realize you've made the wrong career choice Why you should do it incrementally What Chris means by "creating space." Every episode, Steve will give you a challenge to help you on your own journey out of the nine to five. This isn't just another motivational podcast. We're going to help you escape the nine to five in an achievable way. >> TAKE HOME CHALLENGE: CREATE SPACE. Three options 1. Take a break. But this time don't go on holiday. Take AT LEAST a week off, if not a month to reset. Sleep lots, eat well, do stuff you enjoy (avoid alcohol), exercise daily. Meditate daily. Allow at least an hour a day to go on a long walk by yourself and allow thoughts to come up. 2. If you literally cannot feed yourself if you take time off work, reduce your hours. You are not going to be able to make change without reducing energy spent doing what you're currently doing and focussing your energy on making change. 3. If you are extremely stressed in your job and/or miserable, consider quitting. This is the worst case scenario. Research shows our focus narrows when we're stressed. You are not going to make the best decisions with your future if you stay in a job like this. Whatever option you choose, the key here is creating space. Don't overthink it. At this stage it is about allowing time to reset. We'll get to the details later. >> JOIN OUR COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/groups/escapetheninetofivepod Podcast genre: career change, career transition, work life balance, great resignation.
