Episode Synopsis

As regular listeners know, GamerDude is fascinated by words and language, so when he remembered how his grandmother used to say it was "half-past nine" to say that the time was 9:30, he got to thinking about some of the other words and phrases that he grew up using but that are rarely - if ever - used anymore.  In this episode, he talks about a number of those words and phrases, how they were used, and where they came from. So, at the risk of "sounding like a broken record," don't be a "goober." You may feel like you've "been through the wringer,"  but just "hold your horses," sit back in your "pad," and you'll discover a whole new list of colorful words and phrases you can sprinkle into the conversation at your next family gathering.
