Malcolm and Kurt examine and argue about the surprising provenance of a range of terms including "level best," "on tenterhooks," and "piss-poor" while also discussing pressing questions like:

Why do we say "hundreds," "thousands" and "millions" but we don't say "tens?"
If you know the correct pronunciation of a widely mispronounced word, which pronunciation do you use?

And plenty more, all delivered with our signature joie de vivre, wit and savoir faire!
