Get ready for a side-splitting episode, cause this week Emily and Kyle are exploring the laughter-filled etymology of abderian.
Visit the Greek polis of Abdera, and hear how it may or may not have been founded by Hercules. Learn what made the Joker call Gotham a city of fools. And listen to some utterly absurd jokes that totally brought the house down in Ancient Greece.
Lastly, dip your toe into some philosophy to discover just what Democritus and Immanuel Kant had to laugh about. Spoiler alert: the real joke is the eventual downfall of humanity!
Join us every week as we explore the fascinating origins and meanings of words, uncovering the hidden stories behind language and how it evolves over time, for language enthusiasts and etymology buffs alike.
