FOWL Radio 5: Humo(u)r
This week we talk about humour, how it's universal and how it's different.
Stereotypes, French humour (how the French didn't have a word for humour till the 1930s) and how we love British humour and the TV series, Black Adder. Also, a few jokes, a poem and a new word coined.

Here are the links we promised:
Blonde Joke (courtesy ahajokes.com)
Thrammed (the new word of the week. coined by Karn, a listener and defined by Simran)
Indian Jokes - Santa and Banta
French Humour (economist.com)
Poem by Willheim Busch (Captain's Log)
Ship Of Fools (Religious Humour.. includes the GodPod)

Music courtesy DJ Ma Faiza!

A GOT Intro

Check out this intro I made for GOT: Getting Off Topic with CastBlaster. That program is quite good, but I imagine GarageBand beats it anyday. I neeeed Mac!

GOT 1: Web 2.0 Discussion

Before we recorded FOWL 8, we had a small discussion on Web 2.0 and if it deserves its name or if it's just a buzzword. This is the first in a series of non-language discussions. Without telling Chris, I've gone ahead and named it "GOT" or "Getting Off Topic". Come get it.

FOWL Radio 8: April Fool's Edition

Chris: Here is the new show - enjoy! Notes below, courtesy of Simran.


This week we stray away from language and decide, that it's totally cool, that we do so - better than scrapping FOWL anyway. We just want to chat about stuff other than language sometimes and don't want to set up yet another podcast... (any objections? they're welcome too btw)

The song this week is by a jazz, Swiss band that Chris (knows personally? and) is going to see live later this month. The name of the song is Sugartree and is performed by the Oliver Friedli trio. It's available on their album Three Miles Off.

In this episode we talk about blogs, April Fool's Day and more.
