I read from fielding percentage to fieldwork.     Typically "field of view" is used for "external apparatus" but if you're talking about the eyeballs (retinas), then the average human has about a 210 degree field of view.

I read from few to fiat.     About Fez, Morocco: "Up until the late 19th century, the city was the only place in the world which fabricated the fez hat." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fez,_Morocco This must've been the organization my grandpa (or someone!) was a part of for us to have gotten those Fez hats.  https://medinah.org/     The word of the episode is "fiasco".

I read from fetch to fetoprotein.     Fetishes, which are believed to have supernatural powers, "are often used in spiritual or religious context." But there's also "sexual fetishism" which is a different thing but I'm sure came from the original fetishes in some form.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fetishism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_fetishism So the podcast "Taboo Science" did a whole...

I read from festival to fetch.     The etymology of "feta" (slice, morsel, piece) probably refers "...to the cheese being cut to pack it in barrels." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feta     Better safe than sorry: please don't drink while pregnant. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fetal_alcohol_spectrum_disorder https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6707173/     The word of the episode is "fetch"....
