Rachel Teichman, LCSW, and Victor Varnado, KSN, explore the cultural roots and social impact of "playing the dozens"—a verbal sparring game of witty insults. The episode traces the tradition’s influence on modern-day comedy, battle rap, and everyday banter. You’ll also learn about its African-American origins and how it's both a bonding and competitive exercise. A clever and historical ride through the power of words.
