  • Mispronouncing is grating

    Update: Sarah’s inaccuracies are too consistent for me to continue listening.

    Love the show! But a note for Sarah - the mispronunciation is really grating when it’s also quite frequent.

    Of, not off.

    Caricature, not character-ture.

    Walton Goggins, not Walter Goggins.

    Aimee Lou Wood, not Woods!!

    These ladies are a joy to listen to, and that’s coming from an elder millennial who is largely politically illiterate. Do yourself a favour and have a listen.
