This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit smokeempodcast.substack.comIt's Valentine's Day, like it or not. To celebrate, Nancy and Sarah brought on Dan Savage, the most influential sex expert of the past 30 years, and he did not disappoint! Savage is the man behind the long-running Savage Love column and its audio sibling, the Savage Lovecast, but he's no longer with The Stranger, the Seattle-based alt-weekly he ran for a long time (and there's a story behind that).Savage came on to offer a counter-argument for polyamory after listening to our recent pod on the subject. The conversation that followed is a banger. Also discussed:* Welcome to all our new Sam Harrises!* Valentine's Day rule #1: No flash mob proposals!* Savage is a pothead?* How a cultural firebrand writing about dildos became The Man* Savage does not do dick jokes on command* “The Tear Veto”* Sarah wonders if she's a conservative, and also what does that mean?* Neologisms of Dan Savage: “monogamish,” “tolyamorous,” “pegging”* We never talk about the relationships saved by non-monogamy* Why poly-prosthelytizers are the worst* Sorry, kids: Polyamory is not an orientation* The good ole days when straight men went to gay men for blowjobs …* Nancy learns the term “down-low”* Marriage for women up until the Seventies: Musical chairs meets Squid Game* Of course your wife wants to fuck her personal trainer!* “Sexual desire and lust are chaos agents”* Are men and women ultimately sexually incompatible?* Watching trash TV with your husband's boyfriend* Dan Savage, how was your #MeToo?* Asking for what you want in bed: You gotta do it!* Why gay men are better at sex (not because they're magic)Plus, the reason Savage watches True Detective, a collective disappointment over Capote vs. The Swans, and how straight people can vastly improve their sex lives with four magic words.

There's been a recurring theme on the show over the years, of filling gaps in language, removing stigma and bias, finding better ways to express ourselves and talk about our feelings and our bodies. Today Kalle Rocklinger, sex educator with RFSU, the National Association for Sexuality Education in Sweden, talks about how and why over the years, the RFSU has come up with and publicised new terms for body parts and sexual acts, and what they would still like to change. This is the first part of the Telling Other Stories series, about renaming things. Content note: this episode contains discussions of sex and the associated body parts. Towards the end, there's discussion of consent which includes references to rape (there are no descriptions of acts or anybody's experiences). I mention when we're about to arrive at that part of the conversation, so anybody who needs to duck out during that section has some warning.

"It's really good if we can get the changes through here - that can be an inspiration for other other countries or other places in the world," says Þorbjörg Þorvaldsdóttir, chair of Samtökin '78, the national queer organization of Iceland. In 2019, Iceland passed the Gender Autonomy Act, which added an option for people to register their official gender as X; with it, the country's strictly binary-gendered naming laws were suddenly transformed. Other changes, like a new genderfree pronoun, are catching on; but overhauling a whole grammatically gendered language is no easy undertaking.

The Icelandic language has remained so stable over the centuries, speakers can read manuscripts from 900 years ago without too much trouble. And when they need a new word for more recent concepts, there are committees to coin one, so that the modern Icelandic lexicon includes such things as the internet, helicopters and mansplaining. Defending the language from the encroachment of English, however, is rather more challenging.

This week on "A Way with Words": Your telephone is for talking, right? Or is it? We're guessing it's been a while since you sat next to a telephone waiting for it to ring. In fact, maybe you're one of those people who HATE to see that voicemail message light blinking. But for many of us, waiting for a text is a different. Also, California may be the "Dude!" capital of the country, but the term "dude" actually comes from New York City. And where exactly do you eat tweezer food? Plus, donning and doffing our clothes, tweezer food, the origin of kowtow, emcee, Arby's, and -orama, and modern etiquette for wedding invitations.FULL DETAILSSorry, Californians—the word dude actually comes from New York City, and goes all the way back to the 1800s.To kowtow, as in "to agree in an excessively eager or annoying way," comes from a Chinese term that means "to bow extremely low out of respect," from words that literally mean "knock head."Flight crews have a word for colleagues who check into a hotel, slam the door behind them, lock it shut, and don't re-emerge until checkout time. They're called slam-clickers.Addressing a wedding invitation to Mr. and Mrs. John Smith is pretty old-fashioned. It's more than appropriate these days to address both a husband and wife by their respective names. But if you're inviting someone who prefers the old-fashioned style, best to honor their preference.When flight attendants use the terms feather, leather, or fin, they're talking about "chicken, beef, or fish."Our Quiz Guy John Chaneski has sandwiched together the first letters of first and last names for a trivia game about famous folks.Long before English speakers adopted the suffix -orama, as in Scoutorama and smell-o-rama, there was French word panorama referring to "a great display or spectacle." Panorama comes from Greek words that mean "whole view." University of Alabama professor Michael Piccone details the development panorama in French in his book Anglicisms, Neologisms, and Dynamic French. In English, panorama first referred to spectacular, long paintings slowly unscrolled before 19th-century audiences, and later inspired other words that likewise ended in -orama.Firefighters don and doff their equipment, words that derive from "do on" and "do off." New York City firefighters' buff-colored uniforms apparently inspired our word buff, as in a fan -- a reference to fire enthusiasts who would show up in buff-colored coats to watch firefighters at work.A caller from Burlington, Vermont, has observed a slight change in the language of flight attendants' instructions, replacing your with that. Instead of saying "Put your coat in the overhead compartment," the ones on the airline she frequents say, "Put that coat in the overhead compartment." Linguistic anthropologist Barbara Clark has analyzed the scripted language of flight attendants and finds their deferential speech is calculated in part to gain the respect and loyalty of passengers.Remember when teenagers used to sit by the phone, waiting for it to ring? Now ask  teenagers if they do anything but text.Newscasters are going overboard with the euphemisms for death, like passed away, or simply passed. If someone died, it's fine to say exactly that.Jagging around is a classic Pittsburghese term for "fooling around," or "to poke fun or play tricks." It's likely related to jaggerbush, meaning a "thorny bush."You know when you go to a fancy restaurant and order something where every little ingredient looks like it was placed there with a tweezer? There's a term for that stuff: tweezer food.Emcee, or "Master of Ceremonies," is one of many cases where the initials of something are spelled out phonetically, like okay, deejay, jaycee, or Arby's. Although every letter of the alphabet can be sounded out this way, few words fall into this category.Some New York City street names also denote whole industries, such as Wall Street and Madison Avenue.This episode was hosted by Martha Barnette and Grant Barrett.--A Way with Words is funded by its listeners: http://waywordradio.org/donateGet your language question answered on the air!

Sutton's Western Technology and Soviet Economic Development: 1917–1930, which argues that 'Soviet economic development for 1917–1930 was essentially dependent on Western technological aid' (p.283), and that 'at least 95 per cent of the industrial structure received this assistance.' “(p. 348). John Taylor Gatto on Brzezinski: "Zbigniew Brzezinski wrote his famous signature book Between Two Ages: America's Role in the Technetronic Era in 1970, a piece reeking with Fabianisms: dislike of direct popular power, relentless advocacy of the right and duty of evolutionarily advanced nations to administer less-developed parts of the world, revulsion at populist demands for "selfish self-government" (homeschooling would be a prime example), and stress on collectivism. Brzezinski said in the book:14  It will soon be possible to assert almost continuous control over every citizen and to maintain up-to-date files containing even the most personal details about health and personal behavior of every citizen, in addition to the more customary data. These files will be subject to instantaneous retrieval by the authorities. Power will gravitate into the hands of those who control information." Professor Antony C.

A Way with Words — language, linguistics, and callers from all over

This week on "A Way with Words": Your telephone is for talking, right? Or is it? We're guessing it's been a while since you sat next to a telephone waiting for it to ring. In fact, maybe you're one of those people who HATE to see that voicemail message light blinking. But for many of us, waiting for a text is a different. Also, California may be the "Dude!" capital of the country, but the term "dude" actually comes from New York City. And where exactly do you eat tweezer food? Plus, donning and doffing our clothes, tweezer food, the origin of kowtow, emcee, Arby's, and -orama, and modern etiquette for wedding invitations.FULL DETAILSSorry, Californians—the word dude actually comes from New York City, and goes all the way back to the 1800s.To kowtow, as in "to agree in an excessively eager or annoying way," comes from a Chinese term that means "to bow extremely low out of respect," from words that literally mean "knock head."Flight crews have a word for colleagues who check into a hotel, slam the door behind them, lock it shut, and don't re-emerge until checkout time. They're called slam-clickers.Addressing a wedding invitation to Mr. and Mrs. John Smith is pretty old-fashioned. It's more than appropriate these days to address both a husband and wife by their respective names. But if you're inviting someone who prefers the old-fashioned style, best to honor their preference.When flight attendants use the terms feather, leather, or fin, they're talking about "chicken, beef, or fish."Our Quiz Guy John Chaneski has sandwiched together the first letters of first and last names for a trivia game about famous folks.Long before English speakers adopted the suffix -orama, as in Scoutorama and smell-o-rama, there was French word panorama referring to "a great display or spectacle." Panorama comes from Greek words that mean "whole view." University of Alabama professor Michael Piccone details the development panorama in French in his book Anglicisms, Neologisms, and Dynamic French. In English, panorama first referred to spectacular, long paintings slowly unscrolled before 19th-century audiences, and later inspired other words that likewise ended in -orama.Firefighters don and doff their equipment, words that derive from "do on" and "do off." New York City firefighters' buff-colored uniforms apparently inspired our word buff, as in a fan -- a reference to fire enthusiasts who would show up in buff-colored coats to watch firefighters at work.A caller from Burlington, Vermont, has observed a slight change in the language of flight attendants' instructions, replacing your with that. Instead of saying "Put your coat in the overhead compartment," the ones on the airline she frequents say, "Put that coat in the overhead compartment." Linguistic anthropologist Barbara Clark has analyzed the scripted language of flight attendants and finds their deferential speech is calculated in part to gain the respect and loyalty of passengers.Remember when teenagers used to sit by the phone, waiting for it to ring? Now ask  teenagers if they do anything but text.Newscasters are going overboard with the euphemisms for death, like passed away, or simply passed. If someone died, it's fine to say exactly that.Jagging around is a classic Pittsburghese term for "fooling around," or "to poke fun or play tricks." It's likely related to jaggerbush, meaning a "thorny bush."You know when you go to a fancy restaurant and order something where every little ingredient looks like it was placed there with a tweezer? There's a term for that stuff: tweezer food.Emcee, or "Master of Ceremonies," is one of many cases where the initials of something are spelled out phonetically, like okay, deejay, jaycee, or Arby's. Although every letter of the alphabet can be sounded out this way, few words fall into this category.Some New York City street names also denote whole industries, such as Wall Street and Madison Avenue.This episode was hosted by Martha Barnette and Grant Barrett.....Support for A Way with Words comes from The Ken Blanchard Companies, celebrating 35 years of making a leadership difference with Situational Leadership II, the leadership model designed to boost effectiveness, impact, and employee engagement.

William Leben, Stanford Emeritus Professor of Linguistics, evaluates several contemporary new words, and discusses how and why these words enter the lexicon. (April 14, 2008)

A Way with Words — language, linguistics, and callers from all over

We kick off our series on contenders for 2008's "Word of the Year" with a look at "nuke the fridge."The American Dialect Society will hold the 19th annual "Word of the Year" vote in January. It's the granddaddy of all word of the year votes--the longest running, the most academic, and the most fun.And as we approach January 9th in San Francisco, we'll be talking here, in these minicasts, about some of the likeliest candidates.One very odd one that caught our eye was "nuke the fridge."Putting it politely, it means to exhaust the possibilities or merits of a movie franchise. Putting it negatively, it means to destroy a movie franchise through the hubris and arrogance of a successful producer or director. The term was coined based upon a scene in the latest Indiana Jones movie, in which the hero survives a nuclear blast by hiding in a refrigerator. "Nuke the fridge" is patterned after "jump the shark," which was coined a few years ago to refer to anything that had peaked in popularity or quality and was now on a downward slide. Jumping the shark referred to an episode on the sitcom Happy Days in which Fanzine water-skied over a shark, a moment thought by Happy Days aficionados (there are such things!) to be the surest sign of the show's decline.That's all about "nuke the fridge." Next time we'll talk about "ground game."--Get your language question answered on the air!
