List of podcast episodes on languages and words in the Indian context

“Language exerts hidden power, like the moon on the tides.” – Rita May Brown

Language is far more than vocabulary and grammar. It’s a window into how we think, feel, and inhabit the world. As Wittgenstein observed, the limits of our language are the limits of our world, and Charlemagne said “To have another language is to possess a second soul.”. Every tongue we encounter cracks open a new way of seeing, a fresh lens on culture, identity, and the quiet machinery of our own minds.

This post is a growing collection of podcast episodes that have stretched my thinking about language, and its capacity to make us more human.

This is a living list. As you remember episodes that moved you, drop them in the comments.

It’s an ongoing list of podcast episodes. Please do comment if you find more.
