Rob and Jess are talking tech! In this episode, they explore the linguistic origins of terms from technology, Sci-fi and the internet.
🧌 Who was the first internet troll?
🤖 What does ‘robot’ literally mean?
🔫 Does Jedi actually mean something?
⌨️ Are we pronouncing ‘meme’ correctly?
These questions answered, and a whole lot more, in an extra nerdy episode of Words Unravelled.
