Wordy Birds S2E3 29.06.2026

Canine trivia, nonsense names and doggie doo doo! There are many don't-don'ts, too, in our less-than-humble opinion.  We've 'gone to the dogs' quite literally this week and dedicated a whole episode to everything we want to say about dogs and their owners.

Hessian Platforms, Feather Cuts and The Good Life - a milky lens look back to the 1970's 17.06.2026

This week The Wordy Birds get on with all the chatter in a nostalgic and reminiscent throw back to the 1970's. Were we happier then or just blissfully ignorant?  The food wasn't so great but the music and the parties were. Racist and misogynistic sit-coms were a collective experience, and have we ever managed to leave behind the fashion? In a nod to what was good about the era and what w...

Too Wordy For Words 09.06.2026

The Wordy Birds are back for series 2! This week we're tackling acronyms - that's small words with big meanings.  Who knew that scuba was an acronym, and can you guess what a Bolo is? Tune in for the first of this season's episodes.  Follow Nikki and Sally on insta  @thewordy.birds and contact us on email at thewordybirds1@gmail.com

Soundbites and retribution 06.02.2025

The Wordy Birds adopt some irksome accents in this week's episode, the last in the series. It's a mixed bag of famous soundbites, retro political slogans and catchphrases that remind us how efficient and memorable language can be. It all soon drizzles into cheery nonsense though, with shenanigans in the daylight, brother/sister bands, and beard fear. Also, listen out for hints on deployi...

Double the fun! 21.01.2025

Getting to grips with double entendres and innuendos, The Wordy Birds dive into a diverse realm of repartee this week. Everything is on the table including troll dolls, sticky mouth-fulls, erogenous zones, Vaseline butt lifts and dodgy encounters on a bus!

Word chains and rock gods 06.01.2025

This week we look at how we express ourselves and make connections when we consider words and descriptive phrases in a chain of meaning. What do we understand by clever, intelligent, brainy and canny; funny, hilarious, wry and amusing? And how do you feel about idioms, or about being in a 'situationship' or in 'beast mode'? The Wordy Birds grapple with this, as well as banana h...

The Wordy Christmas Special 17.12.2024

It's Christmas and The Wordy Birds are celebrating with a glass of wine! We'll be talking about our childhood and remembering the gifts we were given, and just what we thought of them! And listen out for the 'aunties' and tales of the headless deer and a cheeky archbishop.  Follow Nikki and Sally on insta  @thewordy.birds and contact us on email at thewordybirds1@gmail.com

In the nickname of time 11.12.2024

What's in a name? So much! What do they mean, where do they come from and what madness is there in conjuring up something edgy and original? This week Nikki and Sally spare no punches picking on names and nicknames, and pulling them to pieces.   Follow Nikki and Sally on insta  @thewordy.birds and contact us on email at thewordybirds1@gmail.com

Islands in the stream ....of consciousness 02.12.2024

We are The Wordy Birds and this week we're talking all about those bizarre words and ideas that just pop into our heads -  for no good reasons that we can fathom!  Follow Nikki and Sally on insta  @thewordy.birds and contact us on email at thewordybirds1@gmail.com
