Ridin’ Wordy

Ridin’ Wordy is a short, story-driven podcast about the fascinating history hiding inside the words we use every day.

Hosted by marketing and advertising veteran Sean Rhoads, the show explores how language shapes the way we think, communicate, persuade, and connect. Each episode takes one familiar word and follows its journey through time, uncovering the surprising events, cultural shifts, accidents, and human stories that gave it meaning.

From political campaigns to ancient languages, from slang to space travel, the words we casually use today often carry centuries of history.

If you enjoy history, storytelling, curiosity, and those “wait… seriously?” moments, Ridin’ Wordy will change the way you hear everyday language.

One word.
One story.
One ride.
