Speaker 2 (00:11):
We gotta talk about Merriam Webster because they have come
out and added more than five thousand terms to the dictionary.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
But I find this interesting.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
I know we get them often, but I find it
interesting to see what they're highlighting as such a big
part of humanity, if you will, because this is them
documenting our lives right now. Because these books are going
to like end up being history books, They're going to
look back and be like, ooh, when were they using
beast mode as a term?

Speaker 1 (00:37):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
I no longer trust and believe that, like all these
dictionaries are like yeah, high smart dictionaries anymore.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
You're just adding words to be relevant, I think, because
nobody reads a dictionary anymore, which I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
But like you used to used to use a dictionary
to go look up like.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
Actual words nowadays, Like I'm sorry, I'm not gonna look
at what beast mode mean. Well if you did, you could,
because it tells you wow. Into the dictionary, mode is added.
It's an extremely aggressive or energetic style or manner that
someone does temporarily to overpower an opponent.

Speaker 1 (01:07):
It's not like an actual word. Technically, it's two words. Yeah,
that's also true.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Yeah, but it's it's used as an adjective. So dad
bod is in there. Dumb phone is in their words
yeah the album. But that also feels dumb, like you
don't need a dumb phone, just have a anyway, what
is a farm to table? It's a dumb phone, yeah,
thank you. It's a cell phone that doesn't have advanced
software such as email or internet. So so a phone,

(01:35):
regular phone.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
Why are we adding that to the dictionary? I know, Wait,
it gets weirder. Farm to table. That's a term, that's
a phrase. It's not even a word.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
But it's been around for a long time. Hard pass
are you s?

Speaker 1 (01:49):
Dictionary should just be renamed the Book of Sayings, the
Book of Words, Book of Sayings.

probably jul Yes, thank you so much. He's currently in
the production of doing Part three. But when he's finished
with that, they're going to move into working on the
new James Bond movie. And they really want it to
be somebody that's a fresh face, because they feel like

(02:58):
using anybody else just going to kind of taint it. Yeah,
that's amazing, What an incredible opportunity for an up becoming
actor and a new person tries to be obsessed with,
