Australia and Austria

May 16, 2009

The names Australia and Austria are awfully similar. Is it a coincidence? This is part of a complete episode.

A Way with Words broadcasts at many different times, so we do what is known as a "call-out show." When you contact us or leave a voicemail, we read and listen to everything, and then arrange a later time to record selected callers. This gives everyone everywhere an equal chance of getting on the air, including podcast listeners.

We consider all of the many calls and messages, and what we don't put on the air, we save to help plan episodes and shape the program.
