I usually don’t do this, but I’m going to ask for money. Not for me, but for the producers of the A Way With Words podcast. If you’re not familiar with it, you should be. Grant Barrett and Martha Barnette produce a weekly radio show and podcast on language that is fun, informative, and professional. It’s one of the highlights of my week. (I listen to quite a few podcasts—they’re great when commuting or walking the dog—and I can say that of all the shows I listen to, A Way With Words has, without a doubt, the highest production values.) The show used to be produced by a PBS radio station, but due to funding cuts at the stations is now an independent production, so they need to raise money just as if they were a public radio station.
So if you’re in a position to part with a few dollars, please click on the link to find out how. If you’re not, start listening to the show and then give it a review in iTunes or whatever podcasting service you use so that others can more easily find it.
