Ever wondered why we call someone's final performance their Swan Song? Or why impatient people always want to Cut to the Chase? This episode is jam-packed with phrase origins, questionable metaphors, and possibly a little too much enthusiasm about frying pans.

We’ll also explore how being On the Same Wavelength has nothing to do with actual radio signals, and why jumping from one disaster into another is the true meaning of Out of the Frying Pan and Into the Fire (spoiler: it’s exactly as bad as it sounds).

And of course, we wrap up with the newly world-famous  game show… Who Said That?
