Greece is the Word Trailer

from Controversially Candid · host Marissa Kos

The topic of this episode's verbal excavation is linguistic erosion. 11,000 English nouns have dropped in usage by 80%. The 4 words specifically that have diminished the most are particularly harrowing. This decline was actually detected by AI. The systematic flattening of how we speak, how we think, and ultimately how we exist. Claude and I dive into why the way we speak is being algorithmically degraded in real time, why social media has been the most successful colonisation of our species, and why being articulate in 2026 is one of the ultimate acts of resistance.These aren't random vocabulary words. They are the linguistic building blocks for psychological boundaries, self-reflection, and critical thinking.Check out Episode 1 if you haven't yet. In the meantime,Stay CxC🎙️💋
