Episode description
Does it matter if our language is not as sophisticated as it once was? What is the connection between language and thought, between thought and humanity? Does our language affect our understanding, and how might this affect political participation? I'll start a conversation about these topics using a 1946 essay by George Orwell, who is best known for his novels 1984 and Animal Farm.
