Gretchen McCulloch's love for language is infectious, and she has a way of setting it on contemporary topics - like Trump (the 'Cheeto') or Twitter (the 'birdsite').

I just found Lingthusiasm a few weeks ago and have been listening non-stop. McCulloch and her co-host are both awesome.
Interesting article, Voldemorting was new to me, too!
