Troy University’s student-produced comedy play, Uncle Louis’s House, is aiming to reconnect audiences with their loved ones... and leave them with a few questions.
And, over Spring Break, Troy University fraternity Alpha Tau Omega recently held their annual charity event Walk Hard.

The Talk of TROY - "Uncle Louis's House & Walk Hard" - March 28th, 2025

So many books and so little time--it's a challenge to choose what to read next! It helps to remember that so-called "reading mortality" is a fact of life--you'll never get to them all, but you can curate your own to-read list that speaks specifically to you. Plus, the sneaky story behind the expression slip someone a mickey, and a new word for walking your dog: Let's go on a sniffari! And: favorite first lines of books, Bohemian, a brain teaser about song titles, how to pronounce aioli, jo-jo potatoes, a cool million, and more. http://waywordradio.org

#280 • Live on KALW 91.7 FM San Francisco Bay Area • April 12, 2025

This week, we'll celebrate 100 years of the classic novel, The Great Gatsby. And, NPR is launching Tiny Desk Radio. We'll take a look behind the concert desk on The Talk of TROY.

The Talk of TROY - "Gatsby Parties & Tiny Desk Radio" - April 18th, 2025

Samantha Harvey's novel Orbital is a sensuous, exhilarating meditation about the strangeness of life on a space station, with its mix of tedious tasks and jaw-dropping views. And: a musician who rode the rails in his youth shares the slang he picked up along the way. For example, the word spanging is a blend of the words spare and changing, and means "panhandling." Plus, what does the doggie say? The sound of a dog barking is often written as Bow wow. But why? Doesn't barking sound more like ruff ruff? Plus, slang on the ski slopes, boodling, a jazzy pangram, larruping good food, avoir le moral dans les chaussettes, a quiz about puzzling store names, ride or die, and a clever answer for when someone inquires as to how you're doing. http://waywordradio.org
