Friday Apr 07, 2023

Friday Apr 07, 2023

Welcome to the 'Bakery Bears Radio Show' Episode 83
 
We are delighted to return with our latest episode of the Radio Show.
 
Today we are discussing grammar. In the history of Bakery Bear Productions, this is the subject we have been contacted about the most. So in todays show we dig into this fascinating subject. What is grammar? Should we all try to use it properly? Or is it inevitable language will constantly change as generations pass.
 
Join Kay & Dan as they:
  • Mention British pantomimes and Widow Twanky
  • Talk about the most common complaint they have received since forming Bakery Bear Productions in 2015
  • Mention their magazine, Knitability https://bakerybears.com/knitability/
  • Talk about cold mornings and stiff joints
  • Discuss grammar, what is it and should we all try to use it well
  • Talk through the impact of Twitter and the desire to say something in a limited space
  • Analyse why its seen as ‘cool’ in some circles not to use good grammar
  • Discuss the link between how we speak and how we write
We'll see you on the 21st April with the next episode of the show.

Welcome to the 'Bakery Bears Radio Show' Episode 81
 
We are delighted to return with our latest episode of the Radio Show.
Today we are discussing chivalry. Is it dead and should it stay that way? The route of this discussion lies in benevolent sexism.

In this episode we try and chart a course through these very choppy waters.
 
Join Kay & Dan as they:
  • Talk a little bit about the recent positive comments about the Radio Show
  • Discuss chivalry and what it means to each of them
  • What is benevolent sexism https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/psychology/benevolent-sexism

  • What is the difference between respect and benevolent sexism?
  • Discuss their recent frustrating weather
  • Encounter a leaf blower and talk about their memories of rakes
  • Ask if Dan should change his behaviour to take into account benevolent sexism
We'll see you on the 7th April with the next episode of the show.
