I love everything about this podcast! Thank you!

Just stumbled across this podcast today! As someone trying to up their game in vocabulary, this did not disappoint! I’m one episode in and I’m already loving it!

So entertaining! So informative! Best vocabulary podcast to date! Five stars for creativity and tools that make learning new words more memorable. Nick also has great music taste so it’s easy to listen to. Thanks Nick!

I have been searching for a long time for a podcast that I can learn advanced vocabulary and haven’t been so successful until I found Nick. His lessons are very well-composed and the way he explains meaning of complicated words are fascinating and easy to understand. Examples of vocabulary are engaging and lively. I enjoy his questions because they are very on point and make me an active learner and process the words and remember as well as understanding them well. I also enjoy his kind warm voice, too. What a wonderful teacher! Keep up the great work, Nick. Thanks so much!

I have been looking for a podcast like this for years & wish I would’ve found it in 2014 but only now discovered it so I’m starting from the beginning. Thank you Nick for all the great mnemonics that really help me remember these amazing words!

I feel smarter listening to this podcast! So so so so good!! Thank you for this!

I never listened to podcasts, and this is the only podcast I actually enjoy. The edits, music, examples, mnemonics and jokes on this podcast are unmatched. Wish I found this before I started studying for an exam.

Love this podcast! It makes learning advance vocabulary so easy for me. I love nicks concept of having 3 words every podcast, it makes it easier for me to learn. Thanks nick, please keep posting more!

examples from interviews, movies, tv shows…are really helpful for memorizing the word. love the quizzes. also, nick’s voice is very calming

I love this podcast! An, Nick! just lletting you know I don't listen to you when I'm in the train! I listen to you mostly while going about my chores and while having my meals! Man! look at that five stars! This is the 86th review and the 198th rating! Hope this will make you happy so that you will record more episodes!

Love it, Love it, Love it, Nick has a unique style that sounds natural and entertainning. I look forward to his upcoming podcast He brings a poutpurry of new words that are fun and challenging to use. Looking forward to new Nick's podcasts

This podcast is Laudable. I really love it. Nick has la teaching acumen and love the short jokes he throws in. I really hope he keeps publishing new episodes.

This is wonderful. I kept looking for a way to beef up my vocabulary, but every time I searched for a podcast like this I’d get ESL stuff. I really love this. Please don’t stop creating. It’s just perfect.

Definitely my favorite podcast! I have listened to every episode and I love them all. Thank you so much and keep it up!!

This is a cornucopia of fantastic vocabulary posed in very interesting ways. I love it!

I’ve searched for other vocab building podcasts, and all of the others are very dry and have little to no production value. The host of this podcast brings a sense of levity to his podcast without going over-the-top. Very nice balance. Thanks for the pod!!!

I randomly started on episode 26 and you are hilarious!! I need to expand my vocabulary and such so this podcast will for sure help me. Thank you!

Nick’s Knack for Neologisms is a great podcast – definitely the best available for learning vocabulary. It’s very helpful to have the sampled audio snippets for each word

Great way to learn new words you can actually use!

Please do more episodes!!!!

It’s such a fun way to learn words! I’m studying for the GRE and I really enjoy how he makes words fun and even gives mnemonics to help you remember boring words in creative ways. I thought this was going to be painful & sleep inducing but it’s engaging and memorable. I also love the splash’s of fun whether it’s music, random blooper or his adorable son talking! Keep up the work!

Love this podcast! Been listening to it when commuting to work for GRE. I love the jingle you have.

Listening to this on my work commute to prepare for the GRE. Sometimes I wish the podcaster players around with voice mods a little less. Overall helpful though and one of the better vocabulary podcasts out there.

Great way to learn new words and expand one’s vocabulary. There are some episodes with inappropriate language and a strong liberal spin.

Subscribed after listening only one episode. Very helpful!!!!!!! Thank you so much. This is what I was looking for! A lot of examples with new words!

Way to go man really love this

Currently in nursing school but I’m also studying for the GRE. Love the host. He makes learning new words fun and easy!

Love your podcast ! Perfect for me!

I’m not studying for anything, I just felt like after years of being out of college that I wasn’t as eloquent as I used to be. Plus I just love words. I was happy to find a vocab podcast that feels accessible. People around me are aware I’m listening to it and will ask me to share a good word with them, which makes for great conversations. I’m still early in, the only thing I’ve noticed so far is that in the “glib” episode he keeps spelling it g-i-l-b. Other than that, it’s great so far. Love that you made such an esoteric podcast for us word lovers (see? It works!)

As a ESL student who has a eager to learn more and more these pod casts are excellent.

I have very much enjoyed listening and actually being able to remember the words.. thank you so much for doing this! ps I love when you do the a review episode of the previous episodes!

I've been studying for the gre and this has made learning new words so much easier! I turn it on if im cooking or in the shower and will repeat the words while he gives you fun mneumonics. He also inserts clips of other people talking in speeches or tv shows so you can get a sense of how the word is used before he defines it. Afterwards he asks you questions and gives you time to answer it so the definition really gets drilled in your head. He's even started doing something in the more recent episodes where he does a recap of the previous episode which is super helpful if youre listening to them in a row. If I have one suggestion for you nick is that you cut out the part where you do the questions and rank the answer choices since its a bit subjective and not as helpful. If you could maybe come up with a sentence instead and have two answer choices rather than those types of questions i think that could be better! But seriously no complaints otherwise.

Clarity, repetitive till learned by learners✅ 100%

Makes preparation for GRE easy and enjoyable!

I just love it. You're are awesome! Thank you so much! I'm preparing for the GRE and this is really helpful. It's a fun and magically effective way of teaching these difficult words.

Thank you so much for putting the time and effort into creating this. I really appreciate it. Your podcast came up as a recommendation on our Facebook group for aspiring CRNAs to help those of us that are studying for the GRE. This has helped me so much because the different types of examples you give help us who are not native English speakers. Sometimes the definitions given for these words online use words to define it with words that sometimes I don’t know either 😅. Thank you again and I will still keep listening to this even after I am done with the GRE !!!

I have literally never written any reviews. This podcast has provided a well-organized yet fun-listening sets of worlds, suitable even for people not doing exams. It is certainly not a secret that GRE words are numerous and esoteric. Accordingly, Not only Nick tries to simplify learning of these worlds by providing various interesting examples, but also he carefully chooses mnemonics to help you remember words which is the most challenging part of it. Adding different talks and speech from famous people and mixing it with hiphop music has created an engaging and highly constructive podcast. Thank you Nick. I will certainly make a donation very soon.

Not only do I look forward to studying for the GRE every day, but my verbal score has also increased significantly since I started listening! I am addicted to this podcast and listen to it on every commute to work and every walk around my college town. I have shared this podcast with many friends who are also in the process of studying for the GRE, and they, too, have found it immensely helpful! Thank you so much for all the work you do, both on this podcast and as a nurse. Keep fighting that good fight (and maybe post a few more podcasts soon?)!

Honestly this is the best podcast for vocab. I feel super lucky to have found this. Clicked on other ones before I found nicks neologisms and those sucked.

I just discovered this podcast and look forward to using it with my homeschooled kids next year. It is the perfect approach to add new words a little at a time.

Great vocabulary podcast. Love it

Great podcast! I like that you spend some time on each word. I am not a native English speaker and this podcast helps me a lot! Please never stop!

I really enjoy this podcast. But please correct the episode with opprobrium as you missed key meaning. Thank you!!

Found this gem while looking for podcasts to help me study for the GRE. Nick does a great job explaining and reviewing examples of each word, making it very easy to understand! I love that he throws in some humor, and like that he covers only a few words in each episode (makes it easier to digest). I am listening almost everyday now, and actually look forward to it.... who would have thought? :)

This podcast is incredibly fun, upbeat and engaging. Which is not how I thought I’d describe a vocabulary podcast...and yet, here we are. Love it!

Please do few mores in 2019... you're great!! please never stop.... i love you

I’ve been listening to this podcast daily and love it. I’m listening now while I’m driving to take the GRE. Fingers crossed!! I love god you play audio clips of people using the words in context. I would love to know how you find all of those clips to use. I teach middle school language arts and think my students who are auditory learners would like hearing their vocabulary words in real life context examples.

While other podcasts just read out the word and the definition, Nick adds charm through funny mnemonics and stories. P.S. - Hey Nick, I love your music! I know you designed it yourself, so I want to say, great job. I really look forward to listening to your podcasts. They have also improved so much!! I love the quizzes at the end and the introduction of different people (usually religious or political speakers?) who use those exact same words in context. It’s great. I encourage you to do more because even though I started listening to this podcast for the GRE, I feel that my vocabulary has increased dramatically and I promise I’ll continue to listen after my exam next week!

Great podcast so far. However, please check your pronunciation of the word misanthrope.

Very helpful when studying for the GRE. Does a great job at helping you remember the words. Please do more soon!
