F-ck Yeah: Can Cursing Make You Stronger?

Category: Education

Publish Date: 2019-06-10 09:25:00
Description: Does swearing make you more powerful? Caller Mark’s dad thinks a well-timed “word of power” is the key to efficient yardwork. ELT asks a swearing expert about that theory. Plus, we talk to someone who turns the “mother f*ckers” into “manhole covers” for the TV versions of movies.

Guests: Cognitive scientist Ben Bergen, author of What the F***; Gwen Whittle, supervising sound editor at Skywalker Sound
Thanks to caller Mark for the monkey flippin’ question, and to Mark’s dad Steve.
