A Shoo-In - 10 July 2017

<p>This week it’s butterflies, belly flowers, plot bunnies, foxes, and cuckoos. Also, writing advice from Mark Twain and a wonderful bit of prose from Sara Pennypacker's book Pax. And are there word origins? Well, does a duck swim? We'll hear the stories of polka, smarmy, bully pulpit, and the exes and ohs we use to show our affection. Plus! Sarcastic interrogatives, the echo questions we give as answers to other people's no-duh queries.</p> <p>Listen to all episodes for free: https://waywordradio.org/<br />  <br /> Support the show to keep episodes coming: https://waywordradio.org/donate<br />  <br /> Your responses, questions, and comments are welcomed at any time! <br />  <br /> https://waywordradio.org/contact<br />  <br /> words@waywordradio.org<br />  <br /> Listener line 1 (877) 929-9673 toll-free in the US and Canada<br />  <br /> Text/SMS +1 (619) 567-9673<br />  <br /> Copyright Wayword, Inc., a 501(c)(3) corporation.
