it’s #WorldRadioDay, so the perfect time to embody the bombast of this 1938 recording of ‘Gang Busters’, and sign the @writersguildgb.bsky.social petition against radio drama cuts 👇 www.change.org/p/save-audio... #SADattheBBC

Was talking to a friend and was suddenly reminded of this absurd exchange that happened on Twitter and Maud Dromgoole's classic response:
Man in pub who has been mansplaining sexual harassment to me. Tell me me necklace gives me a certain Je ne sais quoi
Him: Do you know what je ne sais quoi means?
Me: I don't know what.
Him: I'll tell you. It's a certain extra special something. I don't know the literal translationDude named Tom: If I tell you his explanation was correct would I be accused of "mansplaining"?? "Je ne sais quoi" literally translates as "I don't know what"

Maud: Mate. What are you doing?

Oliver: How! How is this happening? It's like lemmings off a cliff

In defence of ‘radical listening’ - an especially timely read in the wake of the cancellation of Short Cuts current.org/2024/11/why-...

Why ‘radical listening’ is key to public radio’s future
"Building radical listening and field recording into our program offerings announces to the audience that we understand our public service role as custodians of culture and media representation."

Etymology of the day: to be ‘blowing a hoolie’ (or ‘hooley’) was probably inspired by the Orkney word ‘hoolan’, a howling gale, with a touch of the ‘hooley’ that is a very noisy party thrown in.
