You only read 5-star reviews on your show?
C’mon man…don’t you want to encourage authentic dialogue? I think you should read ALL reviews! Not only will that encourage engagement, it will give you feed for your podcast. Let’s say some douche bag like, oh I don’t know, DC Qranky gives you a 1-star review and says you don’t know your ass from a hole in the ground and you’re full of crap and playing off Trump, Africa is a shit hole country (I know it’s a continent) so why are you wasting your time there. That’s great stuff! Engage! Bring the fucker on your show.
There are a dozen words and expressions that irk me when people misuse them.
Originally, I made one 30-min show with all 12 words.
However, to make them more sharable, I've also broken them up into mini-podcasts and video shorts.
Share to educate the world about these 12 misused words or phrases.
The 12 problematic words/phrases
What's the difference between changing and transforming?

Rejoice Tapon describes her exploration of the four most popular military branches: Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines.
She dreams of being a nurse in the 2020s.
Therefore, she was mainly interested in the medical field.
Still, this video will be helpful for those who are interested in non-medical careers.
You'll learn:
- What's awesome about the Marines.
- Who should join the Air Force.
- What funny cartoon sums up different military groups.
- Why the Army is best who want a specific and guaranteed job.
- Why Rejoice chose the Navy.
- What's Rejoice's best tip for who may want to enlist.
- What all military recruiters will tell you.
The video/podcast cuts abruptly, so Francis inserts an addendum to share information about when Rejoice will ship to boot camp, how long her training is, and what she may be doing for the next 5 years.
Admittedly, in this video/podcast, we don't consider the Coast Guard (Rejoice dislikes swimming) and Space Force (it lacks medical jobs). If you request, I can do a video on those branches later.
Elly Roupcheva's family is from Turkincha, Bulgaria. In this podcast, we reminisce on the unexpected way we met there.
You can see the photos from our first meeting in my article about Turkincha.
After some initial laughs, we dive into the real meat of the conversation: how has Bulgaria evolved in the last 10 years?
In The Hidden Europe, I quoted Elly extensively in the chapter about Bulgaria.
As I am revising the book for the 10th-anniversary edition, I wanted to see what has changed.
What did she say back then that she would no longer say today?
If you want to learn more about Bulgaria or Eastern Europe, you must listen to or watch this podcast!
Below are a few photos for 11 years ago when we first met:
Is Hungary becoming a dictatorship? How is Eastern Europe evolving?
How did Viktor Orbán, Hungary's leader, come to power? Is he popular and loved?
Alex Kuli is a "recovering journalist" in Hungary.
We went to Amherst College together. He's been living in Hungary for a few decades, reporting on the state of affairs.
I quoted him extensively in The Hidden Europe.
With the 10th anniversary coming up and the 100th anniversary of the Treaty of Trianon, we talked for one hour about how things are going in Eastern Europe, especially in Hungary.
If you want to know more about Hungary, especially its political situation, you must listen to this podcast.
What makes it interesting is that he puts Hungary in context with the rest of Eastern Europe.
