Protest

Something Rhymes with Purple
Something Rhymes with Purple
Episode • Feb 9, 2021 • 46m
Purple People we have been feeling flumped and slumped, so this week we’re getting pumped for Protest!
And how thrilling protest can be. Whether its sedition or insurrection, riot or revolt, Susie and Gyles explore the words of protest and revolution. 
Susie tells us why the Roman god Jupiter may have some thoughts about that incident at Capitol Hill, Gyles delights in the anti-ageism of the Senate and even manages to find something saucy in Congress. 
Gyles and Susie also answer mail, get to the root of carrots/carets/carats and solve your excellent cross word clues.
Featuring “Inspector Morse” by Jim Parker.
Susie's Trio:
Jawbation- an tedious, extensive rubuke
Fossick- to rummage around, to search about
Twickered- a word from the Isle of Wight, to be tired and weary
