Ever wondered why we say hit rock bottom when things go south? Or why being dressed to the nines doesn’t actually require the number nine? This week, we’re diving into some of the strangest and most dramatic phrases in the English language!

Blood is Thicker than Water – Does this really mean family comes first, or have we been getting it wrong this whole time?
One Fell Swoop – Shakespeare gave us this gem, but what the heck does a "fell swoop" even look like?

And of course, we’re closing things out with our brand new, soon-to-be-world-famous game show, Who Said That?! We’ll throw out a famous quote, and you’ll have to guess who said it—will it be a literary legend, a historical icon, or a celebrity who really should’ve thought before speaking?

So grab your fanciest outfit (or at least pretend you're dressed to the nines), and join us for another hilarious deep dive into the phrases we use every day without questioning!
