Say What - Language, True Crime, History, Pop Culture & Feminism From true crime to music, films, myths, legends, ancient history, folklore, and everyday life, join me as I rub shoulders with the glitterati of language, all wrapped up with a radical feminist bow, to discover where some of our everyday words come from, how they came to mean what they do today, and who are the folks responsible. So we’ll be rocking through dictionaries, encyclopedias, religious texts, newspapers, magazines, lyrics, books, and social media to learn why we say what we say.

Catfishing: A Long History of a Very New Word

We’ve heard the word, Catfishing, and doesn’t it feel like it’s been part of the zeitgeist forever? But Catfishing, as it’s used in popular culture, is a relatively new term, from 2010, actually.

And it was coined by a documentarian.

In this episode, I look at the history of the word catfishing, and actually take a look at its very long, but hidden history that has everything to do with catfish and cod. 

So let’s deconstruct this!
