About the episode

Rune Pedersen has a new challenge. After becoming a father, and being cooped up at home on parental leave he's relearning how to talk - so to speak. In the first episode of How Humans Talk, Rune dives headfirst into the intricacies of human communication. Guided by speech pathologist and voice expert Dr Sarah Lobegeiger de Rodriguez, he discovers the untapped power of the human voice, exploring why we often undervalue something so essential to our identity and relationships. Rune also chats with Dory Wang, who went from being a TV presenter in China to starting from scratch in Australia, armed with just a handful of vegetable names and some pleasantries. Together they unpack the emotional and social complexities faced by multilingual speakers, from battling accent biases to rethinking what belonging truly means.
