Shakespeare Full Circle

Today we set upon the stubbonly-stuck and the irritatingly-inured to find out the origin of those not willing to "Budge An Inch."

In this episode we travel deep into the forest of Arden to see who has "Seen Better Days," and why...

Today we travel back to Roman occupied Britain, for a tale of young love, evil innuendo & insomnia to find the phrase, "Not Slept One Wink."

Join us for a journey that is not for the "faint hearted;" a bloody tale that gave rise to the War of The Roses.

Today we continue our journey with Uncle Will, so "for goodness sake," tune in and we'll talk about one of England's most notorious monarchs.

Today we travel to the Kingdom of Navarre for a look into the bare, unadorned majesty of... "The Naked Truth."

Today we travel to the magical land of Illyria, where, after a shipwreck, we get pulled "Out of the Jaws Of Death."

Today we travel to Denmark to uncover the origins of the phrase Brevity is the Soul of Wit. It seems that deep within the tragedy of Hamlet, Shakespeare decided he need to inject some levity into the mix: enter chief advisor Polonius.

Without getting into the whole "Lie" vs. "Lay" grammatical details, host Qarie Marshall provides the genesis of this very Shakespearean expression and how the meaning and usage of it has developed over the years.

You might think that today's phrase pops up in Shakespeare's most famous story of teen tumult, "Romeo and Juliet," but you would be wrong. Dead wrong. Host Qarie Marshall takes us on a wild ride to expose the history of "Love is Blind."
