Ep 278: Ed Byrne - World's Worst Figure of Speech

Armed with nothing but a dictionary of aphorisms and a big red cliche detector, Ben and Barry are joined this wek by Irish comedy legend Ed Byrne. Together they get to the bottom of all sorts of linguistic conundra, including what a moral compass looks like, quite how much anti-Irish prejudice is baked into the English language and why you should be careful which South American country you openly talk about passing wind in.
