Listen Later

It’s a laugh filled 30th episode as the boys bring on Ian’s buddy and self-proclaimed “later to life polyglot” Joshuah Pursley, who has lots to tell of his language journey as an adult, which started at age 33. Josh recounts growing up in Arizona and the historic presence of latinos there as well as immigrant communities in other states. Josh dives deep into his affection for Indonesian, the vast complexity of the African languages including his own Swahili learning and his skepticism to learning created languages like Esperanto and Klingon. Josh talks of being a parent teaching languages, his experience at the Polyglot Conference and gives his impressions on Japan and South Korea.
