Gangbusters (Rebroadcast) - 13 March 2017

<p>Sensuous words and terms of endearment. Think of a beautiful word. Now, is it simply the word's sound that makes it beautiful? Or does its appeal also depend on meaning? Also, pet names for lovers around the world: You might call your beloved "honey," or "babe," or "boo." But in Swedish, your loved one is a "sweet nose," and in Persian, you can just say you hope a mouse eats them. Finally, in certain parts of the U.S., going out to see a stripper may not mean what you think it means. Plus, clutch, dank, girled up, gorilla warfare, dead ringer, spitten image, butter beans vs. lima beans, and the whole shebang.</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.
