More Episodes

Joining Eric this week is returning guest David J. Peterson, language creator extraordinaire, who first spoke with Eric on Episode 3 of the show about the songs we are most glad exist.

And ALSO joining the show, for the first time, is Jen Usellis, a.k.a. the Klingon Pop Warrior! Jen's been translating pop and Rock'n'roll music into the Klingon language (from Star Trek) and most recently her 3rd EP "Great Deeds, Great Songs" has been successfully funded on Kickstarter!

Having two guests who both work with constructed language SURE WAS A TREAT! And, we start the show off talking about language and sharing stories of how the guests got involved with fake languages to begin with.

For a main discussion, it's all things LOVE SONGS (starting at 28:00). Just in time for Valentine's Day 2021! The hosts discuss the following questions:

  • What ingredients make a good love song?
  • Have we ever dated someone whose name was the title of a love song?
  • How EXPLICIT can/should a love song be?
  • Can a love song be about oneself, or an inanimate object? David has a good idea.

Then, the hosts pick 3 of their favorite love songs to defend in discussion, and round out the episode with some honorable mentions.

Find David creating a language weekly at LangTimeStudio on YouTube!

Find Jenbom at KlingonPopWarrior.com, or on YouTube!
