#62: Catawamptiously Chawed Up


Listen Later

What a mouthful. The Cru discuss the value of giving your writing up to the universe... by burning it. Stories this evening feature a priceless heirloom;  a cat who loves miso soup; and a journalist who has finally found a worthy story.
From the Dictionary of  Americanisms (1848) by John Russell Bartlett:
CATAWAMPTIOUSLY CHAWED UP. Completely demolished, utterly defeated. One of the ludicrous monstrosities in which the vulgar language of the Southern and Western States abounds. 
Stories begin around the 10:45 mark.
