Listeners keep sending us wince-worthy puns about what various people might have in their gardens. For example, a baseball player's backyard might be full of pitcher plants. People thinking about adopting a pet might consider orchids. (Say that one aloud.) Linguists? They’d probably plant root vegetables or parse-ly, and etymologists would prefer plants with lots of stems. This is part of a complete episode.
