This week on The Wednesday Night Podcast, we're boarding the jazz-rock express with Chicago Transit Authority and the absolute banger, "Questions 67 and 68." We tried to analyze the complex time signatures, but honestly, we just got confused.

So, we pivoted to the real pressing issue: Catch Phrases!

Inspired by the song's query-heavy title, Craig leads us through a hysterically funny deep-dive into the history, present, and terrifying future of verbal shortcuts. We dissect the anatomy of phrases that defined generations (Looking at you, "I pity the fool!"). We ask: why do some last ("That's what she said") while others fade into painful, dated obscurity (We won't mention any, but they involve puppet sidekicks)?

Finally, Craig unveils his highly anticipated (and deeply problematic) list of future catch phrases for the year 2045, which are 90% confusing AI references and 10% surprisingly effective ways to insult a sourdough starter.

Tune in to find out which host gets called out for using a phrase that went extinct in 2003, and whether we can successfully implant a new, completely nonsensical catchphrase into the global lexicon!
