636 - 'To Boot.' Duck Tape. 'Can' and 'May.' Pronouns.

Episode 636 Published 7 years, 6 months ago
Description

This week, I have more evidence that "quick and dirty" is from the Pacific Northwest, why we say "to boot," whether the correct name is "duct tape" or "duck tape," whether it's really wrong to say "Can I go to the bathroom," and an excerpt from an interview with June Casagrande about pronouns.
