Welcome back! Today, we have a compelling discussion with Charles Tarbey, who explores the evolving language landscape and societal expectations in our modern world.
Charles reflects on his upbringing in Crookwell, NSW, and shares the humour in his early communication style compared to today's sensitivities. He discusses the confusion of writing an email and questions the appropriateness of a basic salutation.
He shares a friend's experience of being admonished for calling someone "homeless," emphasizing that it's not the words but the context and tone that matter. 
Wrapping up, Charles humorously suggests alternative, lighthearted phrases for common expressions to promote inclusivity without losing the essence of fun in conversation.
