April 2023 Friday’s e-links: More About Wordle and Spelling Bee

Last updated 04/14/23

Every once in a while, (and sometimes each day) I listen to a great podcast, enjoy an article, or see a good video that I want to share with you.

Having listened to the Allusionist for years (a podcast that I definitely recommend), I was happy to extend my linguistic podcast purview. This took me back to a podcast on the origins of Wordle. It turned out to be the Spectacuilar Vernavcular. After listening again, I do recommend this specific podcast. And happily, if I enjoy several this week, I will recommend the series. I should add that if you want more about puzzles (as did I), fast forward to 17:35 during this Slate podcast to hear about Spelling Bee.
