On Adult Sayings That Make No Sense
Seraphina Speaks
There’s so much to learn when it comes to the English language and it’s cram full with colourful sayings. If you’re an English native speaker, you’ve probably learned plenty of them by some kind of osmosis. In this episode I unpack the idea that there isn’t logic behind some of these sayings.

On My Anime Soapbox

Don’t worry I also talk about concerning features of ‘some’ anime. You’ll hear that I dedicate lots of focus to finding age appropriate anime so that I protect myself from unsuitable material. As ever, I’m joined by my trusty triplet brother...
