But first, why don't we pronounce the "c" in this word? We dig into this with ersatz word nerd Ammon Shea, as it's one of the more popular words being looked up this week, along with reboot and copyright. Which leads us into the ever drifting tides of word meanings.

On the shores of those tides is Western New England Law professor, author, and podcaster, Jen Taub, who is able to explain to us the difference between copyright and trademark. In addition to also helping us weed through the new crop of charges against our former president and the possible charges the cast of "Barbie" might incur.
