Shownotes Transcript

It's Idioms Ep 3 and on this one, we're talking about "Cat got your tongue?"  As you'll see, there are many theories about the origin of this one and NONE of them come from the Hallmark Channel.  They're pretty brutal, to be quite honest.  But isn't that the pattern of human history? We do incredibly horrible things to each other just so we can learn from those experiences and whittle it down to a phrase that simply probes why someone is being quiet?  Listen and I hope you enjoy it! 5 minutes at the most!
