Acerca de Worth a Minute

The podcast where every word matters and each episode is carefully crafted to bring you interesting and entertaining content from a broad range of contributors. What can be covered in a meaningful fashion in podcast episodes that last just 60 seconds? Quite a lot, it turns out! Cicero is credited with saying, “I have only made this letter longer because I have not had time to make it shorter”. Our aim is to apply that principle to the 'Worth a Minute' podcast by cutting down content to its essence and then expressing it in a striking and memorable manner.

S1 Ep 28 – Best Ever Question

Inspired by Krista Tippett’s assertion that there is something redemptive and life-giving about asking better questions, Kenny Primrose, creator of 'The Examined Life' Podcast [https://open.spotify.com/show/1QaEmvYjKVmMg3LZVpq0qS?si=02f0351e4c344b22], selects his best ever question.

S1 Ep 27 – Best Ever ‘Dance Your Own Steps’ Movie

Mike's best ever ‘Dance Your Own Steps’ movie is Baz Luhrmann’s 1992 romantic comedy, ‘Strictly Ballroom’. Not only does the plot celebrate individual creativity and personal convictions, the film-making deliberately breaks barriers and is extravagantly entertaining. Ultimately, though, it also inspires, with its core message of ‘a life lived in fear is a life half-lived’ being epitomised by the lead character’s father finally breaking the shackles imposed on his own creativity to initiate the brilliant Paso Doble finale! It is truly a movie that dances all its own steps! This show has been brought to you by Free Range Podcasting [https://www.freerangepodcasting.co.uk/].

S1 Ep 26 – Best Ever Anagrammatic Poem

Mike's best ever anagrammatic poem is David Shulman’s sonnet, ‘Washington Crossing the Delaware’, inspired by Emanuel Leutze’s famous painting of the same name. Every line is an anagram of the painting’s title and yet the poem still works, even managing to include specialist, key references to the historical incident, including 'Redcoats', 'Continentals' and 'Hessian'! The best place to read the poem is on Wikipedia where you can watch an animation in which the letters beautifully circulate into new positions as each new line is displayed [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington_Crossing_the_Delaware_(sonnet)]!

S1 Ep 25 – Best Ever Compound Noun

Dave Elder [https://davidelder.net/] contributes a second episode to the ‘Worth a Minute’ podcast, on this occasion selecting his best ever compound noun. German, with its unwavering determination to exploit any and all word combinations, was inevitably a strong contender to provide Dave’s favourite word produced from other words. In the end, though - despite strong competition from Spanish, Finnish and Icelandic - a Welsh word (literally meaning ‘pinging bakehouse’) won the day!

S1 Ep 24 – Best Ever Anagram

Mike reviews the interesting history of anagrams, including the appointment by Louis XIII of a Royal Anagrammatist, Walter Begley’s Anagrammatic Bible and Galileo’s deliberately scrambled message to Johannes Kepler [https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/87433/how-misinterpreted-anagram-predicted-moons-mars]. Despite loving the fact that ‘A Decimal Point’ turns into ‘I'm a Dot in Place’, Mike plumps for a different option when selecting his best ever anagram and provides a numerical justification for his choice!
