Bonus Episode - The Origin of the Word F**k and Why Society Says It's So Bad

Despite the wideness and proliferation of its use in many sections
of society, the word fuck remains (and has been for centuries) one

rarely appeared in print; even today, there are a number of
euphemistic ways of referring to it in speech and writing. In this
episode we explore the origin of the word, some of the arguments of
why people say it's so bad, and discuss a couple of scientific
studies that have been conducted on people who like to swear more
than others. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
