Episode 41 - ’90s Slang vs ’40s Slang | A Chat With My Dad in the Garden

In this episode, I talk to my dad, Peter, about slang. We also play a game where I try to guess the meaning of slang terms from the ’40s (his generation), and he tries to guess the meaning of slang terms from the ’90s (my generation). The game was fun, but we also end up talking about all sorts of other things like the Hindi, Arabic and Turkish origins of some English words, how words changed over the years and what a potato is. (It's not what you think.)
