So... why do begin sentences this way? Is it OK? In this episode we take a deep dive into the use (or misuse?) of this little word.
We also have a short discussion about the current vs. original pronunciations of "gerrymander" in light of the U.S. Supreme Court's recent decision on partisan gerrymandering.
So... you should probably go ahead and listen, don't ya think?
