This week Alyx is joined by Dr. Brenna Byrd (expert in Germanic Languages and Linguistics) and Dr. Andrew Byrd (expert in Linguistics) who worked on the world's first interstellar tourism campaign: an alien welcome laser Visit Lex beamed into space from right here in Lexington, KY where Strange Talk records. We're obviously talking all about aliens, communication, and some other amazing linguistics projects both Drs. Byrd have worked on. Truly don't want to miss this one, and a huge thank you to our dear friend Stephen who put us in touch with them after coming on the show a couple weeks back!Music for this episode includes the Strange Talk Intro by Star Silk, Subterranean Terror by Karl Casey, and backing tracks by LoFiGeek.
