	Description:		1143. This week, we look at the 2025 words of the year with Jess Zafarris and Danny Hieber. We look at viral slang like "six seven" and cultural terms like "rage bait" and "fatigued." We also look at the dramatic rise of "slop" to describe low-quality AI content and how words like "parasocial" are changing function. Find Jess Zafarris at UselessEtymology.com, or find her podcast Words Unravelled on YouTube. Find Danny Hieber at LingusiticDiscovery.com or on his Substack.
