WTKAS Episode 126 : Elbow and Narrow
About this episode
Incisive and Nat Zara are back for a chat. In this episode we explore the shocking (and clumsy) reason why putting your elbows on the table was considered bad manners. We also explore the historic origins of place names: what do "shire" and the original "Shire Reeve" (now the Sheriff) mean, and why do towns like Lancaster end in "caster" or "chester" (Roman forts/settlements)?
Then, we expore out the truly wild reason why wheeled suitcases, we tackle the question that might prove we're all living in a simulation: Have you ever seen your neighbours bringing in the groceries?
