  • Egg corn alert!

    Love this podcast so much! Should have rated it years ago, but rating it now because I’m not on social media, and I’m not sure how else to let them know about an egg corn I came across yesterday: I saw someone use the phrase “coat switching” instead of “code switching”, and I thought it was appropriate. It catches the idea of taking off one persona and putting on another ala a spy putting on a different coat so they look like a different person.

  • All the Alliterations are Awful!

    The alliterations were fun for a while, now the show opening makes me cringe every time and I have to convince myself not to turn it off. We’re all impressed that you can pull words from the same section of a dictionary to make a ridiculous sentences. It takes more than having nouns and verbs in their proper places to make a sentence that people want to hear. Time for something new.

  • Great show!

    Love this show so much! By the way, Karen, there is a modern day crystal maze, with the same concept, I am to young, at 13, to have watched the original, but it is still among my favorite game shows.
