Welcome to the inaugural episode of Lexiconned! We’re diving into the muck—literally—with one of the most versatile and misunderstood words in the English language: “shit.”
Where does "shit" come from? Join host TJ Martin as he debunks a popular myth and takes you on a journey through the fascinating history of the word. From its Old English roots to its evolution as profanity, slang, and even cultural icon, this episode reveals how “shit” went from medical texts to late-night cable TV.
Discover the myths, the history, and the many roles this linguistic Swiss Army knife has played—because when it comes to words, there’s always more than meets the ear.
Don’t miss:
- The myth of “Ship High in Transit”.
- The medieval remedy for diarrhea (spoiler: it’s gross).
- How “shit” became the Gary Oldman of language—versatile, iconic, and indispensable.
Join us for laughs, learning, and a little linguistic mess. Lexiconned—because words have conned us all.
