No one likes a smarty pants. But we have to tell you – that five-dollar word you just dropped into the conversation? You’re saying it wrong. In fact, a lot of what we all say is just plain incorrect. For example, you might have grown up loving the work of Dr. Seuss – but you’ve probably never pronounced his name correctly. And if you say Trapelo the way the traffic reporters do – you’re saying it wrong. 

This show was originally produced by Senior Producer Clint Conley.
