MOVIES: January 2023 podcast playlist
Movies, like podcasts, can expose us to new ideas, perspectives, and cultures that we may not have otherwise encountered.

There is some controversy about whether languages can change the way we think, but there is no doubt that language and identity are inextricably linked. This podcast listening list explores language from a variety of angles.
