I'm Guy Kawasaki, and this is Remarkable People. We're on a mission to make you remarkable. Helping me in this episode is Valerie Fridland. She is a Professor in the Department of English at the University of Nevada in Reno. But her expertise extends far beyond the academic sphere. Valerie imparts her knowledge of language's critical role in professional life and leadership in businesses and governmental agencies, including Charles Schwab and the Serbian Ministry of Culture. LISTEN TO THE EPISODE HERE Her work has also earned her widespread recognition, with appearances as a language expert on CBS News and NPR. She writes a popular language blog on Psychology Today called "Language in the Wild" and is a professor for The Great Courses series. We will cover esoteric linguistics topics, including the singular they, vocal fry, the different meanings of um and uh, and courtroom strategies in case you are arrested. You will also learn why she could have as much impact on my life as Jane Goodall. So, with no, um, further ado, let's dive into the world of linguistics with Professor Valerie Fridland. BTW, this is the most lightly edited episode of Remarkable People…you'll hear why. Please enjoy this remarkable episode with Valerie Fridland: The Amazing and Um, Complex World of Linguistics!
