Show notes

First up this hour, James Croot is taking us to the movies. Then Max Cryer joins RadioLIVE's Graeme Hill to banter over words, their origin and meaning. First up Max and Graeme explore the question what is a Pope? Then they explore why a biscuit and a dog are both coined Afghans - and also take look at how Mae West connects to the word. Max takes a look at who said Hunky Dory first. Then he takes a gander at the origin of Angostura Bitters. Finally Max and Graeme look at the bizarre origin of the word coffin.If you are interested in the origin of a word or phrase, e-mail your wordy questions to Graeme at [email protected] Variety Wireless with Graeme Hill, 8pm - midnight Saturdays and Sundays, on RadioLIVE and streaming live to the Rova app on Android and iPhone.
