In this episode, Amy becomes an angry, vengeful stranger (but probably not) with "ghost" (11:30) and Ryan does the thing he was always meant to do with "engine" (30:31).

Lexitecture is a podcast about words. In each episode, a Canadian (Ryan) and a Scot (Amy) each present their current favourite word and talk about its origins, current use, and try to puzzle out how it may have gone from A to B. If you love thinking and talking about words, word origins, or just random bits of head-scratching language trivia, this may be the show for you!
