Why is swearing so offensive?

Welcome back to the Sunday Spit Roast team!

Alexis Debus talks about swearing

This episode is about Profanity. Is it good or bad to swear? How important is swearing to the English language? Is Blasphemy cosmically wrong or just silly? When is it big and clever to say rude words?

So if you are fan of bad language stay tuned.

This episode features the special guest:

Alexis Dubus

Alexis is an awesome comedian / actor and the writer / star of the critically acclaimed A R#ddy Brief History Of Swearing. A comedy lecture on the history of curse words, which won Alexis a Three Weeks Editors’ award.

An established stand-up, character and sketch performer, Alexis has gigged all over the world to critical acclaim. He was the promoter and co-host of the award-winning Falling Down With Laughter comedy club from 2005-2011 and is co-host of the Comedy Cul-de-Sac podcast. He is a proud board member of the Alternative Comedy Memorial Society.

So sit back plug in the headphones and get ready to be offended.

Contains strong language!
