Daniel Midgley teaches linguistics at the University of Western Australia and at Edith Cowan University.
He still has an American accent because he spent the first part of his life in Washington state, and also because his brain is long past the stage where it’s plastic enough to acquire a new accent.
Daniel is a presenter on the popular weekly radio programme Talk the Talk, which airs on RTRFM 92.1, a community radio station in Perth. His new podcast, Because Language, focuses on interviews and issues in linguistics.
