This week, Anna is hearing some STRONG language – that is, from the Strong Language Festival in Bradford, as well as language we should be wary of from the so-called manosphere. It’s also a question of linguistics for the animal kingdom on the World Service – are we closer to human-animal conversations, or is our excitement around AI in this field of research leading us to bark up the wrong tree? Plus, we revisit the moment Shostakovich was silenced by Stalin – and how Paul Simon brewed up a political storm with his album, Graceland.
