In Part 2 of Episode 9, in The People’s Corner, we speak to a delightful mix of people about the word ‘bitch’. We ask them about the way it seeped into their lives, how they handled it, whether it took over their lives, how they managed to keep it in control, and whether and how it put them in quite a magnificently awkward spot! Here are the questions we asked them and the timestamps they appear at in Part 2:

Powerful. Denigrating. Demeaning. Domineering. Bitch is all of that when it wants to be—and more! Part 1 of Episode 9 charts its origins and the way 'bitch' morphed from being a simpering simmering insult to a fashionable greeting and then settled on being both—and came to imply authority AND weakness as well!—when in the hands and on the tongues of men and women across quite a handful of decades.

It has a naive—almost spiritually innocent—look about it. And yet, the word ‘girl’ can be quite malicious and vicious when in the hands of people who don’t care two hoots about being humane.
This episode takes a look at how ‘girl’ was once a leveller and its tendency to find itself in the midst of verbal assault.

Some think it’s all over the place while some think it’s cooled off into oblivion. Say what you may, ‘sexy’ perks up a conversation, description, or even a deadpan expression like no other. This episode takes a look at its origins, the sensation it tickled Bollywood with, and whether talk—especially in India—will involve 'sexy' in the future.

You can use them to buy time, while away time, and pretend you’re having a conversation even when you don’t want to. Fillers—quite literally—fill in for you in conversations almost all the time.
In this episode, we speak to a number of people to find out what particular filler word is their all-time favourite and how they make use of fillers when faced with controversial topics, questions whose answers they know nothing about, and conversations they’d like to keep away from or merely play spectators to.

From measuring depths to assessing friendships and relationships to finding its way into kitchens to getting airtime with Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper, ‘shallow’ has mingled with some rather quirky bedfellows.
This episode tracks people’s opinion about how shallow (or not) is its usage and whether we use it at all these days—and why?

Mention the word ‘prepone’ and you have got to mention the Indians. For they are always the ones who take the credit—or the blame!—for coming up with that word, so much so that Shashi Tharoor, an Indian politician, at one point in time, believed he was the one who concocted it. Well, he didn’t—as he himself clarified later—but really, are the Indians responsible for it at all?
This episode pulls the veil off ‘prepone’ and tells you all…
