Episode Synopsis

The Feral Creatures of Chaos – Episode 8“Pronunciation Police: Correcting You in Our Heads Since Forever”From “caramel” vs. “carmel” to the eternal “pecan” wars, the feral crew dives into the unhinged world of pronunciation — the silent corrections we make in our heads, the battles we’ll actually fight out loud, and the shame of realizing we’ve been wrong all along.This week we unpack secondhand embarrassment, regional language beef, and the chaos of mispronounced words that live rent-free in our brains. We also confess our own guilty word crimes, debate if it’s ever okay to correct someone mid-sentence, and rage at the cursed “expresso.”As always, the Feral Oracle joins the chat to decide if it’s time to bite our tongues or embrace our inner pronunciation police.Listener prompt: What’s the worst mispronunciation you’ve ever heard in public and didn’t correct? Bonus points if it still haunts you.Say it wrong, hear it wrong, suffer in silence, or correct with pride — either way, we’re judging you (just a little).
