#E8 (earwax to easement)


Listen Later

I read from earwax to easement.

 

 

Earwax is important, but if you need to clean some of it out, you must be really careful.

The word of the episode is "easel".

The etymology is from "ass" which is basically saying that the easel is like a donkey because you're adding a burden to it (the canvas).
