What The Phrase - Origin Of Words

Jordan and Becky discuss the origin of "Cold Turkey." Jordan just can't quit peanut butter and realizes he lives life one step from rock bottom, and Becky assumes Boar's Head invented the phrase for sales–marketing purposes.

Is cold turkey less popular now than it was in the eighties?

Jordan and Becky theorize and discuss the origin of the phrase Spill The Beans. Becky learns the difference between Ancient Greece and Ancient Egypt, and realizes she was a "weasel-snitch" as a child. Jordan has trouble understanding how no one believes the "spilt beans" about Trump, but has a clear understanding of Mediterranean men.

Jordan and Becky theorize and discuss the origin of “Let Er’ Rip.” Jordan learns there’s more to the phrase than farting, no one wants to “rip” Becky’s clothes off, and both hosts have no idea when the Industrial Revolution actually took place. But they do no one thing––NASCAR is not for them.

Jordan and Becky theorize and discuss the origin of “It Ain’t Over Till The Fat Lady Sings.” Was this the start of FAT SHAMING or does it mean POWER? Becky pretends to watch sports, Jordan is a Wendy’s addict, and both hosts fear the alleged strikingly-large female.

Jordan and Becky theorize and discuss the origin of “Happy As A Clam.” Becky loves a good pleasure notebook and can’t figure out if she’s departing or arriving at the airport, Jordan was raised on mixed metaphors and doesn’t understand tides, and both hosts think snails are just lazy worms with tiny backpacks. Clams aren’t happy! How does this make any sense?
