Language Dabbling Advice, the Scots Wikipedia Shocker..and Adele's 🇯🇲 Bikini

We're exploring the hottest of hot potatoes in this episode by discovering the scandal, the drama, the shock of what happened over on Scots Wikipedia. And once everyone's calmed down, Lindsay's on hand to help discover the many different benefits of having a dabble instead of always getting super serious about learning a language.

It's always fun to learn a language, no matter if you're in a 10-year epic journey...or you are language Lou Bega.
