π Show Notes
Time management is certainly not a skill weβve ever claimed to excel at, but one particular story from this week really paints a grim picture. The most common english idioms are actually not common at all, and some from other parts of the world are just plain frightening! Gode is also a freak at musical trivia apparently.

From the US here. Iβve heard all of those and used the frying pan one today!
Gode is the Shazam π

Another great episode Gents π
Y'all are too much fun. Truly brightens my Thursday evenings (remember, I'm in Houston, Texas, USA, so that's when your show appears on my YouTube notifications) — the content is (nearly) always fun and often even educational, but mostly it cheers my heart to hear a gang of friends sitting around chewing the fat and laughing yourselves silly Every Single Week. I can only guess y'all are good friends off camera. Good on you all. Some day I'll figure out how to send you a visual joke that really needs to be seen rather than merely heard (clean, of course, just visual).
Having lived in he US for many years, those were all very common idioms on this side of the Atlantic. The term English clearly referred to the language, not the location.
Some idioms can be sort of opposites , e.g. Look before you leap vs He who hesitates is lost or Fortune favours the brave vs discretion is the better part of valour or Donβt look a gift horse in the mouth vs Beware of Greeks bearing gifts , Too many cooks spoil the broth vs Many hands make light work
That's a baaaaahhhhhhd one……….
All those English idioms are common in America so I think your jingle is spot on
These idioms are all second nature to us in the States. Anyone from the UK just as familiar with them? I mean, I'm guessing many/most came from the UK in the first place…from centuries ago.
Maybe Aussie idioms aren't much of a thing. Too busy truncating all words to a single syllable and appending a -y at the end I guess.
Itβs amazing the difference between American and Australian English, esp the slang. I feel like even being a native English speaker thereβs a good 20-30% I either miss and have to go back an catch or phrases I donβt know.
Daddyβs Home π
Best laugh of the week.
Have heard all the english idioms, but usually spoken by people over 70 years old
Love the new introπ
i remember i went to a NRL match years ago , after it was over i saw one of the players sniffing each finger in turn, i asked someone who it was and what he was doing they aid "that's John Hopoate picking man of the match"
Those common idioms are very common in the US
Well I also saw the movieElvis and it is the worst musical ever as well as it is not about Elvis but the Cornel and what a thief he was. But anywayβ¦.lov your show and keep it comin mate.
LOL, all these idioms are in common usage are in the UK
Legit… you should play drunk tiggy
3 biggest claims you'll hear from a New Zealander. 1, My mother was a MΔori Princess. 2, I once played for the All Blacks. 3, I was only helping the sheep over the fence
The hot porridge idiom is from norway. We have melted butter in the middle of the porridge and kids eats the outside in til the middle "prize". Love the show! π§π»
Sean from Ireland here
…Miccers mistake at 14:20 ish could be an opportunity for you guys…you should start that segment all the time with all of you cracking a beer in the mic! Surely some brand will want to be that beer. Get the sponsorship in….remember Coors is the beat pint in the town!
Love the show! Come on your boys in green!
Yous need to play tiggy and video it..
If it's Michael's 1st time downloading directly then I'd give him a pass π€£π
Another cracking episode guys. I would think it would be a fun time to share a beer with you one day π
American here, grew up with all those idiomism up to the international ones. Still say a couple of them. Great show guys!
Flippin' A Gode, that was impressive.
Wow! UK listener here – it was amazing to me that you hadn't heard of many of the English idioms! I knew, use and hear the lot. I hadn't realised Australian was so different to English. (btw Americans do not speak English!)
Keep up the great work gents.
All the idioms used are American
i'm not a native English speaker, but apart from "look before you leap", i've heard of the rest of the english idioms quite often… in movies especially. i think the reason you hardly recognize them is because they're more commonly used in America. hollywood movies are full of idioms.
translated from Arabic and apparently common in Saudi; the son of the duck is a feather
German knock knock joke
Knock knock
Who's there?
WEEEEE ASK ZEEEEEE QUESTIONS?????
It's an old Robin williams joke. Love the show all. Keep it up.
Why does an elephant have four feet. Because 8 inches ain't enough.
That idiom site is written by someone my age… or my parents' age!!!!
The idioms are English idioms not antipodean idioms πππ¬π§π¬π§π¬π§πππ

Great show boys! Kicked my Saturday morning off in Melbourne beautifully.

Download, options settings allow games to download whilst console is asleep, standby ππππ€¦π€¦…. easy enough π€£π€£ out of the frying pan into the fire is common amongst a certain generation here in england but tbh i would just say im f**ked or 27 haha
As English person, I have heard 90% idioms so I think some of them might be U.K. based idioms.
