Gardentoolism

Hola, estimados oyentes! It's time for another podcast from "A Way with Words."

Earlier this summer a word caught Grant's fancy: "gardentoolism." So he made a slang quiz about it! Listen to the podcast here.

If you haven't yet joined the forums, you've missed a chat about the proper pronunciation of "Missouri," a whole mess of bilingual puns, and a lot of really nice people. Chime in:

Stay tuned!

Martha Barnette and Grant Barrett
