My newsletter for January 2020: a robo-generated episode of Lingthusiasm, Lingthusiasm Discord server, LingComm Grant, and xkcd hovertext

I got namechecked in the hovertext of an xkcd comic this month, which may have resulted in more congratulatory messages from friends than when my book was reviewed in the New York Times, so, you know, it’s good to see that everyone has their priorities on track.

My Wired article about code being based on English got translated into Japanese for Wired Japan. I can’t actually read it, but I suppose…

Linguistics in the Public Ear: Outreach via Podcasts and Radio panel at LSA 2018

We were very pleased to bring together a range of linguistics podcasts and hosts at the annual meeting of the Linguistic Society of America this weekend in Salt Lake City, Utah. Here’s our panel description from the program: 

More and more people are listening to linguistics as they exercise, commute to work, or do household chores. The number of Americans who listen to podcasts has doubled since 2013, and a growing number of these podcasts are about linguistics. Being able to download an episode to your phone or computer, listen to it anywhere (often while doing something else with your hands), and even pause and come back to it, has created a surge in the popularity of audio. Even radio programs have been putting their shows online to attract more listeners after airing. While language is often a popular topic on general interest shows, there are now enough dedicated linguistics podcasts that we've put together a whole panel of them for the first time in LSA history.

This panel brings together the hosts of both well-established and up-and-coming linguistics podcasts, which combined reach hundreds of thousands of listeners around the world. The podcasts encompass a wide range of formats: some also exist as radio shows while others run entirely on the internet; their run times range from 4 minutes, to 30 minutes, to a full hour; and their institutional support ranges from public radio, to private podcasting networks, to solo enterprises funded by listeners. Their founding dates range from radio in 1998, the first podcast wave in 2006-2009, and the second podcast wave in 2012-2016. Hosts range from academic linguists with a commitment to public outreach to professional communicators with a commitment to doing the research.

The panel is of interest to a variety of levels, from linguists who were barely aware that podcasts even existed and now want to get the lay of the land, to dedicated podcast listeners who want to get a glimpse behind the scenes. Panelists will provide practical advice about starting one's own podcast, being an effective guest on an existing podcast to share one's research, linguistics podcasting as a career path, and using podcasts in the linguistics classroom, as well as broader take-home messages about effective linguistics public engagement in general. 

Although a few speakers ran into weather issues and had to send in their contributions remotely, it all came together in the end! Here’s a link to all the podcasts, in order of appearance, with cohosts who weren’t present in parentheses:  

Grammar Girl, Mignon Fogarty 

Lexicon Valley, John McWhorter  

The Allusionist, Helen Zaltzman

That’s What They Say, Anne Curzan 

The World in Words, Nina Porzucki (with Patrick Cox)

Talk the Talk, Daniel Midgley (with Ben Ainslie and Kylie Sturgess)

Lingthusiasm, Lauren Gawne and Gretchen McCulloch 

A Way with Words, Grant Barrett (with Martha Barnette)

We were also excited to have at the panel The Vocal Fries (Megan Figueroa and Carrie Gillon) which didn’t even exist when we were putting the panel together. It’s great to see the linguistics podcast sphere continue to grow! 

Many thanks to everyone who attended the panel and especially to those who livetweeted #LinguisticEar, asked questions, and came up to chat with us! Do check out the other podcasts on the list if you’re looking for more linguistics-related things to listen to.
