Ep. 128 - Cooties and Under the Weather
Mask up, grab your hand sanitizer and join the guys as they look at the origin and history of the word \u201cCooties.\u201d\xa0
In this episode, you\u2019ll learn not only about why we all know the word \u201cCooties,\u201d but also the history of the game \u201cCootie,\u201d which has been around for a surprisingly long time. Hear Steve and Scott reminisce about simpler times, before the internet, when the peak of fun was pretending to vaccinate each other at the lunch table with imaginary needles.
In New Slang, Steve brings us into a world that he immediately regrets with \u201cMukbang.\u201d Learn what the word means and why Steve\u2019s opinion of his fellow man stooped even lower during the research for this episode, not to mention his triumphant return to the gym.\xa0
The show wraps up with the origin of the classic idiom, \u201cUnder the Weather,\u201d which has a very satisfying explanation. So heat up some chicken noodle soup, get under the covers, and hit play on this cootie-riddled episode of Origin of Speakcies.
