It's part two of our very special live episode, and we finally get around to the conversation that makes the title make sense! Will continues his crusade to mispronounce words in other languages, and Brenna just gets mad about random things, as per usual.

We got to record in the same place for once! It was delightful and led to enough material for a two-parter, which is how you know you've made it in podcasting. Will talks about names for concepts that English does not yet have words for, like forgetting someone's name right after being introduced or when you accidentally eat way past the feeling of fullness (you'd think American would have come up with a word for that by now). Brenna talks about bigots and how it's basically the same as calling someone a "goddamn."

This episode we play a game called"Post Hoc, Ergo Propter Hoc," where Brenna has to come up with definitions for words that Will did or did not definitely make up or crib from the internet. It goes about as well as you expect.
