Wednesday, December 27, 2023 - It’s the time of year everyone has a Best Of list. Even dictionaries get in on the trend. “Woke” made dictionary.com’s short list for word of year, following a 2300% increase in searches. We revisit a conversation with philosopher Dr. Jack Russell Weinstein on the long history of this suddenly popular word. ~~~ Dr. Tom Isern shares a Plains Folk essay, He Died in the Harness.” ~~~We’ve eaten enough lately and been overstimulated. Sue Balcom has a Main Street Eats about getting back in touch with nature, and feeding the birds. ~~~ Speaking of birds, why do we love some and loathe others? We air a BirdNote on doves and pigeons.
