Synecdoche

And the meta text here, the fact that this is explicitly labeled an excerpt is just fascinating to me.

It acts as a synecdoche.

Synecdoche being a figure of speech where a part is made to represent the whole.

Exactly.

Or rather, let's explore how that actually functions here.

especially when I'm hosting the program because, as you know, I never ask any tough questions.

I simply say, hey, where do you guys stand on Synecdoche? Where do you guys stand on finances? Where do you guys stand on homeless? And then we'll let them talk.

Anyway, that will be on Monday.

But the third thing I wanted to mention, this is probably the most important of the three, is that I got a call from somebody yesterday.

Cinéd-doque.

Sinécdoque.

Sinécdoque.

Sí.

Es una figura retórica, es un término-

Así como la metáfora existe-

Sí

...así como la hipérbole existe, así como, eh, en este caso esta entrega se llama Sinécdoque.
