Lauren Gawne is a linguist and senior lecturer at La Trobe University in Melbourne. As a linguist, there's one (incredibly inappropriate) joke that comes up over and over again, and she tells us about it in this episode. She also discusses her collaborations with the Coen Brothers, the humanity of customer service jobs, and how much she appreciates have very boring and very interesting names.
