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?"
