A podcast on the research and experience of loneliness. In each episode, I have a conversation with a guest who has something interesting to say about loneliness, be it from an academic (and often philosophical), personal, or any other perspective. New episodes air every second Tuesday.

Axel is joined by Pius Akumbu, the Director of Research in African Linguistics at the French National Center for Scientific Research as well as a language activist and mentor at the Endangered Languages Project. Pius and Axel discuss the role of pitch in word meaning in Bantu languages, the relation between language and thought, and the importance of keeping Bantu alive.
