The Dictionary
Spencer ParksI read the English Dictionary in short sections, comment on it, make bad jokes, and sometimes sing little songs. I hope it’s more entertaining than just reading the dictionary alone. It’s an evolving project so the letter ”A” had lower quality, plus less commenting and jokes.

- Still loving it
Just finished the B’s! I’m three and a half years behind, but it’s great. Spencer moves quickly through but does stop to chat when a word is too wild to ignore. Perfect for all Word Nerds.

United States2 years ago I have been searching for the perfect podcast for what feels like forever. Something I can enjoy when I am paying attention, but can keep on and zone out to while I’m working. It feels less like I am being read the dictionary and more like I am listening to a friend talk and talk. I love that when I am paying attention it is interesting to listen to, but I don’t have to constantly pay attention. I listen pretty much all day at work now. I am so thankful for this podcast!
Audible5elyssaUnited States2 years ago- Lots of chit chat, thank goodness
