## Resource

Today on the podcast, Host Jane C. Hu brings on linguistics professor Kara Becker to explain that, actually, audience development manager Ben Keenan’s PNW accent is normal and part of an evolving way people speak all around the country. Then, Jane is joined by Ava Wood, AKA 365 Hockey Girl, and contributor Brett Hamil to discuss the distressing news that Torrent fan favorite Hilary Knight is headed to Detroit via Las Vegas, as well as what the league will look like next year. Finally, the trio runs through some headlines: Costco’s gas records, 10K people signing up for the Seattle Social Housing lottery, and the news that Governor Ferguson wants to find ways to save some money across the state.
