We have been having so much fun with this new project that occasionally I have to remind @gretchenmcculloch.com that @lingthusiasm.com is actually still a podcast and we probably need to record something:
We've made this bonus episode free for anyone who follows us on Patreon, so whether you're a longtime fan of @allusionistshow.bsky.social or are more on our side of the crossover, this is a fun place to start!

Oh hi I heard we're posting linguistics shirts! Did you know you can cut the sleeves off and go PR your deadlift in them?

I feel so bad for grad students and early career researchers, for whom many opportunities are now so out of reach
(I feel bad for myself just because conferences are nice and useful and can be well-filling)

Looking forward particularly to two workshops I've helped to organise:
- The Undergrad teaching workshop is back for the 3rd year with a session focusing on inclusion and accessibility
- We also have a session on Multimodal meaning-making
The call for papers is out for the 2026 Annual Conference of the Australian Linguistic Society! We'll be at UWA in Perth this year.
