In this Almost Certainly Not companion series, we examine each episode's origins, production process, behind-the-scenes, personal thoughts, and most likely go off on some tangents in spite of our best efforts. In this episode, we examine Common Parlance.
How often do we pause to examine the words we use, the phrases we repeat, or the idioms that slip into our conversations? From “shouting fire in a crowded theater” to “good fences make good neighbors,” our common expressions are relics of history, reshaped by time and misunderstanding. → Possibly Not is an Almost Certainly Not companion series exclusive to YouTube Membership and Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/Almost_Certainly_Not. → NOTE: The views expressed in "Possibly Not" are part of an extemporaneous discussion and while we do our best to be as accurate as possible we are human and will get things wrong.
