Brown on the Air: Words

My weekly essay for "Between You and Me" discusses words. Words can be deeply meaningful and strangely bizarre. Sasquatch. Squat. Kumquat. Syphilis. What a wild lexicon we live in! Creators of words and those who use them should tune in between 10 a.m. and noon on Saturday, May 31 for "Between You and Me," a call-in/music show that celebrates the people of northern Minnesota.

KAXE broadcasts at 91.7 FM in northern Minnesota and streams online at www.kaxe.org.
