Live Lingthusiasm on Backchanneling

[jesse_the_k]

The sparkling minds behind Lingthusiasm are doing a virtual live show on April 24, 2021. You get access by being a patron of Lingthusiasm at any level. It’s a monthly Patreon charge, so you can spend as little as $3 for one month. Their topic is backchanneling. The live show gives listeners the chance to talk back to them and each other while they get enthusiastic about how people show that they’re paying attention, such as “uh huh” and nods and 👍 and ASL's Oh I See.

It’s part of LingFest, a fringe-festival-like program of independently organized online linguistics events for the week of April 24 to May 2. See the LingFest website for details on other events.
