S02E08

Published June 12, 2018 · Updated July 6, 2022

Hey there ,

Love the work you put into this podcast, as I’ve learned that I’m not a fan of linear discussions, and I learned that from you fine folks, so thank you!

I want to point out something that’s been hitting my ears harshly since S02E02.

I can hear Akecheta being pronounced on your show (mostly by Big D) as “Ak-cheta.” When he introduces himself in S02E02, he pronounces it “A-key-che-tah”.

My circle of friends have slightly anglicized it by pronouncing it as “A-keh-che-tah,” as it’s somewhat easier to not have to inflect the “key” portion so distinctly.

I had a difficult time making it through the instacast due to the pronounciation of his name, especially after it had just been said in the episode you were referencing.

Apologies for being picky, but the characer deserves some reverence. Thanks again, and can’t wait for the deep-dive!
