Listen "Does Internet Culture Harm Our Language?"
Episode Synopsis
How do you feel when people in real life speak like a Twitter post? Do you shudder when someone says, "They're #goalz" at the dinner table? Or when your friend describes her partner as "bae" over a coffee?
At the risk of sounding older than our 30-odd years, we debate the constantly annoying creep of internet language into everyday speech. Is Twitter-speak just an evolution of language? Or a sign of infantilised adults talking like 15 year old children? Let's #SpillTheTea and talk about it!
