Quinn Palmer
Say it, I Dare You Podcast is the place where we can talk about the hard sh*t. Join host Quinn Palmer, marketer and word enthusiast, to pull apart the personal meanings of taboo and hard-to-say words and phrases. Chatting with folks from all walks of life about the words that pack a punch, each weekly episode revolves around a new word and a lovely guest to speak openly about why some words aren’t so easy to talk about.Inspired by a family member who could only whisper the word vagina, Say it, I Dare You is about dissecting the discomfort with commonly misrepresented or “uncomfortable” words through real-life stories, professional perspectives, and sometimes, a little bit of pressure to just say it, I dare you.
