Speaking Right   [John J. Miller]

Today's podcast is with Jack Lynch, author of The Lexicographer's Dilemma: The Evolution of 'Proper' English, from Shakespeare to South Park. We discuss who gets to make the rules of grammar and why. If you're a word maven or enjoyed Simon Winchester's book The Professor and the Madman, then this podcast is for you.
