Chicken is the animal, regardless of age/sex. An adult female is a hen.. An adult male is a rooster. Pullet/cockeral are the prebuscent female/male versions, and a chick is the baby/child version.

Love this podcast. But someone needs to sort the recording for the sharp "S" sound when recording Kathy in particular. Don't remember such an issue before, but I have really noticed in the past few recordings. To point, I have to turn volume right down to stop my ears getting sore. Please look at it so I can keep listening!

"Where There's A Will, There's A Wake" is a British television sitcom that aired in the early 2000s. The show centers around the quirky events that unfold after the death of a wealthy family member. The will reading sets off a series of comedic situations involving inheritance, family dynamics, and unexpected surprises. The title plays on the traditional saying "Where there's a will, there's a way," with a humorous twist, focusing on the chaos that ensues when a will is involved. The series is known for its light-hearted humor and eccentric characters. https://reweprospekt.com.de/rewe-kaffee-angebot-diese-woche/
