Description

Idioms is a 5 minutes or less Minicast where I'll be using each episode to take a look at a common idiom we use, analyzing the origin, and possibly tearing it to shreds while we have some good laughs.

If you have any idioms you'd like to see me cover, feel free to email me at dyercomedy@comcast.net.
