We all speak secret languages — whether we realize it or not. Families, professions, and social groups develop their own slang, codes, and private phrases that only make sense to insiders. From kitchen slang in restaurants and bars to cryptic police radio chatter, these hidden languages are everywhere. My guest Ben Schott, author of <a href="https://amzn.to/3LdTmqg">Schott's Significa: A Miscellany of Secret Languages (https://amzn.to/3LdTmqg)</a>, uncovers where these coded words come from, how they evolve, and what they reveal about belonging and identity.
