单集简介 ...

The cat's out of the bag!  We’re back with a brand new episode, and we didn’t cut any corners!  This one is all about idioms, those funny expressions that don’t make sense until you know what they’re supposed to mean, like "steal my thunder" or "it's raining cats and dogs." Join Joy and co-host Zyah to learn all about the history behind some of the most common idioms in English. Plus, a brand new game where you'll get the chance to guess the meaning of an idiom in another language!

  • Teddy?

  • Is that you?

  • Heidi Ho Joy?

  • Hello, Diddley-Doo!

  • Ziya!

  • What brings you two to the official Forevergo Library?

  • Ziya's helping me with my future best-selling book, Quick Snacks and Fun Facts with Joy Dolo.

  • And we can use your help with some of our research, Teddy.

  • Sure thing.

  • As the official Forevergo Librarian, I can talk research until the caterpillars come home.

  • Caterpillars?

  • I think they're better.

  • What kind of phrase is actually, till the cows come home?

  • I don't have any cows, Ziya.

  • Oh.

  • Anyway, my book features the best fact and snack pairings in the world.

  • And I'm looking for the best snack to pair with this fun fact.

  • Did you know a group of jellyfish is called a smack?

  • A snack to pair with a smack fact!

  • Hmm, that's a tricky one, Joy.
