How Much is Less Than a Tad but More Than a Smidgeon?

Word Savvy, a playful language podcast, is word candy for logophiles and casual wordies alike. We dig as deeply as our keyboards allow to find the origins and interesting facts about words that kindle our curiosity. Then we have a ball wrapping these gems in tight, slightly amusing narratives. After listening to our weekly podcast episodes, you’ll find yourself delighting friends and family with rich Word Savvy tidbits! Wordy Savvy is co-hosted by Megan Cantrill. “Reading, and learning, and language - these are some of my favorite things!  As an educator, I have the privilege of introducing students to the magic of books and the power of the written word and hopefully to inspire them to be lifelong learners.”  Word Savvy is also co-hosted by LaRue Roth. As a communications professional and creative writer, I have immersed myself in crafting with words and images for many years. Reading fueled my imagination as a child and set me on a lifelong quest to learn as much as I could, to explore the world around me and to create with language.
