- #D146 (dig to digestion)
I read from dig to digestion.
I'm having a hard time finding actual numbers but I think a archeological dig can be funded for around $10,000 USD.
That's less than you would think, right?!The word of the episode is "digestion".

27 min - #D144 (differential equation to diffraction grating)
I read from differential equation to diffraction grating.
Differential geometry studies the smoothest of manifolds. They're so smooth.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_geometry
The word of the episode is "differently abled".
So maybe this term isn't the best, but as I think I said in the episode, everyone is going to have phrases and terms that they prefer so nothing is off the table. I truly hope I didn't say anything to offend anyone. I know I struggled with what to say for this term.

About The Dictionary
From the publisher's feed
I read the English Dictionary in short sections, comment on it, make bad jokes, and sometimes sing little songs. I hope it’s more entertaining than just reading the dictionary alone. It’s an evolving…
project so the letter ”A” had lower quality, plus less commenting and jokes.
