Liam from San Francisco, California, is wondering about woo-woo. How did this term come to be an adjective describing beliefs or practices considered unscientific or irrational? Woo-woo likely imitates otherworldly sounds or ghostly moans. http://waywordradio.org

A listener reports that in and around his hometown of Le Mars, Iowa, the kind of loose-meat  sandwich that others might call a sloppy joe is known as a Tavern or a Tavern sandwich, a name that likely goes back to a restaurant in nearby Sioux City called Ye Olde Tavern. Other names for such sandwiches include Maid-Rite, Big T, Charlie Boy, and Tastee. http://waywordradio.org

In Newfoundland the word bridge, also spelled brudge, can mean “a deck” or “a porch,” while the word porch refers to an additional room, usually attached at the back of a house, and used as a storage space or  mud room. If a Newfoundlander says it’s duckish out, they’re indicating the skies are dark.. The three daily meals are breakfast, midday dinner,  and evening supper, while any snack outside these is referred to as a lunch, and a bed lunch is a snack eaten just before bed. http://waywordradio.org

What’s the common bond that links the names Vanessa, Cedric, and Pamela? They’re all names coined by famous authors. Vanessa was invented by Jonathan Swift as a pet name for his lover Esther Van Homrigh.The 16th-century poet Sir Phillp Sidney coined the name Pamela for his pastoral romance, “Arcadia,” possibly from a combination of Greek words meaning “all honey.” And Sir Walter Scott, in his novel Ivanhoe, introduced the character of Cedric the Saxon—either a misunderstanding or an alteration of the much older Anglo-Saxon name Cerdic. http://waywordradio.org

A woman from Newfoundland notes that in her part of the world, dunch denotes numbness caused by a limited blood circulation, as in how one’s rear end feels after sitting too long. Dumplings made with only flour and water or bread that is heavy or soggy can also be described as dunch. http://waywordradio.org

Oenophiles are known for their evocative writing about wine, but that’s also true for sophisticated bourbon lovers. Some sensuous tasting notes from bourbon expert Susan Reigler from American Whiskey magazine serve as a case in point. http://waywordradio.org

Someone bitten by a werewolf becomes a werewolf, but what does a werewolf bitten by a nurse practitioner become? In Quiz Guy John Chaneski's punny puzzle, the first syllable of each answer to a question like this rhymes with the were- in werewolf. http://waywordradio.org
