You can’t drop an f-bomb on the radio, but fortunately for this week’s guest, you can say anything you want in a podcast. This week, host Sean Illing talks to philosopher Rebecca Roache, author of 'For F*ck’s Sake: Why Swearing is Shocking, Rude, and Fun.’ Roache explores why certain four-letter words hold the magical power to offend and delight.
