Manage episode 322168030 series 2433344
Time to boil some potatoes and crack open a pint of your favorite Irish Stout in honor of St. Patrick's Day! In this episode, Scott tells the true story of the origin of the term "Boycott," and the guys discuss some successful and not so successful boycotts of the past.
In this episode's New Slang segment, Steve explains the origins of "Bussin" and introduces us to not one, but two Tays (Scott adds a third Tay for good measure). Listen now to find out why the word "Bussin" could be considered taboo for hillbillies like Scott to use.
Speaking of hillbillies, the second term in the St. Patty's Day episode is "Hillbilly." In this segment, Scott explains why he's had to update his favorite racial slur. But first the guys discuss eponyms, which is a term which comes from the name of a person, and try and decide what they would like their eponyms to be.
So top of the morning to ya, and keep your dirty hands of me lucky charms, you hillbilly! Happy St. Patrick's Day from Origin of Speakcies!
