Our own Ralf Thiede is going to be on, for a second time, the Mike Collins “Charlotte Talks” show tomorrow morning at 9 am on 90.7 FM.

Here is the teaser for tomorrow’s program from WFAE.  (Apparently, you can listen to the show online; please visit their website for more information on that if you need it.)

Origins of our Favorite Phrases
Actors tell each other to “break a leg” before going on stage. Here at Charlotte Talks we like to do shows that are “a horse of a different color” and we certainly strive to spend time “off the beaten path.” So today, we explore the history behind some of the most well-known phrases in the English language. Some histories may be known but others will be “brand spanking new.” And, along the way, our experts will debunk some phrase origins to help you take them “with a grain of salt.” So, don’t “bust our chops,” “if you can’t beat us, join us” for a history of idioms.
