Webinar: Inside the LSA's Subtitle Podcast
Language unites and divides us. It amuses and mystifies us. We care deeply about it, whether it’s apostrophe abuse, speech discrimination, or the sweetness of a mother tongue. The LSA's podcast Subtitle tells stories of our obsessions with language, from comedians, writers, and researchers; from speakers of endangered languages; from speakers of multiple languages; from anyone who shares these obsessions. Subtitle aims to make linguistic scholarship accessible to a general audience -- see, for example, the research highlighted in "Words we love to hate," "Is a polyglot's brain different?," and "Did Katrina kill the New Orleans accent?"
Don't miss this chance to delve behind the scenes of this podcast. Hosts Patrick Cox and Kavita Pillay (pictured at right) will provide a guided tour of how an episode of Subtitle evolves, from genesis through post-production They'll also take your questions, so come prepared.
The webinar took place on Friday, April 24 from 1:00 - 2:30 PM EST.
