Pete & Bas & UK vs. US English with Rob Watts of Robwords

from Getting Down & Wordy · host Russell Pirkle & Hannah Weyer

Today we welcome special guest, Youtube star Rob Watts of the Robwords English language show. He joins us to talk about the definitely real UK rappers Pete & Bas. And we reveal the true story behind their whole deal (hoax? how dare you!). Then we talk about some of the differences between UK and US English that you definitely don't already know about. I'm telling you. There are some really surprising differences in pronunciation and word choice beyond the stuff everyone already knows like "aluminum/aluminium". For Eurovision, of course we talk about UK 2023, Mae Muller's "I Wrote a Song", to which Rob said "I wish she hadn't." This week's episode's featured ad is Crime & Spirits.
