Story
We all learn at least one language as children. But what does it take to learn six languages...or seventy? In Babel No More, Michael Erard, "a monolingual with benefits," sets out on a quest to meet language superlearners and make sense of their mental powers. On the way he uncovers the secrets of historical figures like Italian cardinal Giuseppe Mezzofanti, who was said to speak seventy-two languages; Emil Krebs, a pugnacious German diplomat, who spoke sixty-eight languages; and Lomb Kat, a Hungarian who taught herself Russian by reading Russian romance novels.

Story
The Babel Podcast is an open and safe invitation for us to talk about one of the 3 Forbidden Topics: Religion. And I'm not biased to just one. Branches like Christianity, Mormanism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Atheism are all things that we discuss here. Think of this as the raw and real conversation you've always wanted to have about how religion really affects your psyche, relationships, and every day life.

Story
Jeder Mensch kann zum Verbrecher werden. Die Sprache des Verbrechens ist universell. Es kennt keine Kultur, keinen Status, kein Geschlecht. Aber die Ursachen und Hintergründe sind so zahlreich wie die Menschen selbst. BABEL – so heißt es - war die offensivste Demonstration menschlicher Selbstüberschätzung. Sie waren wohlmeinend und doch wurde ihr Größenwahn und ihre Machtgier bestraft: der Mensch wurde dazu verdammt in eine Welt aus Missverständnissen und Sprachen zu zersplittern. Seit jeher wurde gegenseitiges Unverständnis selbst zu einem Herd für menschliche Schlechtigkeit. Ist ...

HOLA, ¿Como estas? Espero que muy bien, pues te presento “La Cornucopia de Babel”, que es tú espacio, mi espacio… El espacio de todos para podernos expresar y decir, gritar o sacar todo aquello que nos guste, moleste, agrade, desagrade, nos haga reír o llorar. En fin, todo lo que tenga que ver con el entorno humano o que deseemos expresar… ¡Gritarle al mundo! Y hablo en plural ya que espero opines, digas lo que te guste o no, incluso si quieres mentarme la madre, todo es bienvenido, ya que, sin ti: la o él que escucha, esto no tendría ningún sentido. Así que aquí todas tus ...
