“Blah, blah, blah” and “yada, yada, yada” have had plenty written about them. But there’s a longtime cousin of these phrases that’s much less understood. We use it all the time, yet it’s not in the dictionary. It’s not even Google-able. In this episode, we investigate the linguistic mysteries of the Five Dah Phenomenon. Featuring linguist & philosopher Paul Saka, and psychologist Helen Abadzi. If you know what this week's mystery sound is, tell us at mystery.20k.org. Follow Dallas on Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn.

Hey listeners, its hard for me to believe, but this is actually the 200th episode of 20,000.
Whether youve been with us from the beginning or if this is your very first episode, I want to thank you for being here.
Now.
I started this show eight years ago, and since then the way podcasting works has changed a lot.
Many podcast apps are moving closer and closer to an algorithmic model, which is more like YouTube.
This means your podcast app may start to send you suggestions based off of your preferences.
As a listener, this is a great way to discover new shifts, but it can also make it easy to miss specific episodes from the shows you already love.
So to make sure you catch every 20,000 hz story, go to our show page in your app and make sure youre following.
Then consider turning on auto downloads and notifications.
That way you can listen right when we launch our episodes and participate in the new episode Buzz.
If we want to be there for our family and friends, we have to take care of ourselves.
