- Clever and funny
I love this podcast. Equal parts hilarious and clever, every time I play it around people they “don’t get it.” Oh well. The small sound bites are perfect to add to my queue during my morning commute, or when I just want to be cheered up when I’m having a bad day.

Australia12 years ago - Like "Good Job Brain" without the 1920s pop culture references
A panel-show-format, light-hearted comedy podcast discussing all things linguistic including trivia and new developments in the field. It comes out roughly monthly and is sure to entertain anyone with a background in linguistics.
Separately included in the feed are short audio articles satirising the austere stereotypes of linguists and philologers which are always amusing and often lough-out-loud funny for those that understand them.
Keep them coming, please!

Apple Podcasts5DedalvsUnited States16 years ago - The Premier Journal of Satirical Linguistics!
Speculative Grammarian is to linguistics what The Onion is to news and The Journal of Irreproducible Results is to science. While the written articles can be rather technical and jargon-laden in their hilarity, the articles chosen for the podcast so far have been less technical—porbably because those translate better to the audio format. The podcasts also feature a variety of speakers. The episodes are short—just a few minutes—which is good news for the busy linguist or language lover on the go.... more
