About this episode

Maybe you've been wondering how to start a sentence. Like, is it better to say, eating pizza makes me happy, or to eat pizza makes me happy. 

At first glance, these seem to mean the same thing. After all, both "Eating pizza" and "To eat pizza" are subjects, right? But here’s the twist: gerunds and infinitives aren't always interchangeable! Let’s break it down so you can use them confidently.
