  • Ed Sheeran "Shivers" & Animal Group Names
    A murder of crows, a pride of lions. These names for groups of animals are called terms of venery! Who comes up with this stuff? We'll tell you!And what better song to pair with this than "Shivers" by Ed Sheeran? Is there a better song, period? Ok, so there are lots of better songs in the world, but Ed Sheeran seems like a pretty likeable guy it turns out!For Eurovision, we're talking about Montenegro's "Clickbait" by NeonoeN, a song which was selected but ultimately disqualified!

  • AJR "World's Smallest Violin" & Mental Health Lingo
    In this episode we talk about AJR, their invention of a synthesizing process for morphing instrument sounds into different instrument sounds (idk, I don't understand it to be honest), and synesthesia. Did you know there are a bunch of different types of synesthesia? You will know after you listen. And possibly see colors while you're listening? Synesthetes, write in and tell us what colors our voices are.We look at trends and misuses of mental health buzz words. Self care. Trigger. Gas light. Etc. Everyone's using these words, but do they mean what they think they mean?In Eurovision, we talk about Australia 2024's offering - One Milkali by Electric Fields, and we talk about the indigenous culture of Australia.Find us on instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/gettingdownandwordy/And email us at [email protected] thanks to Patsy Walker for the use of our theme song “Who’s Wordy Now”!This week’s promoted podcast is Crime & Spirits.

  • Pussycat Dolls "Don't Cha" & Rawdogging
    We're looking at the etymology and evolution of "rawdog" so we decided to rawdog this episode! That's right, no planning, decision making, or research was done before we started recording. Listen if you dare as we go mask off and show you just how slow and dumb we really are. We chose Pussy Cat Dolls "Don't Cha" for the music segment, and looked at a song for Eurovision that was in the running but ultimately didn't get picked.If you like it raw, today's your lucky day.Find us on instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/gettingdownandwordy/And email us at [email protected] thanks to Patsy Walker for the use of our theme song “Who’s Wordy Now”!This week’s promoted podcast is Crime & Spirits.
