Old Words with Mary Rogers

E025 Old Words with Mary Rogers

Mary has some fun with words and phrases that make us sound old. Not that it is a bad thing, some words bring back great memories, like “rap session” or “groovy”.

Some phrases are antiquated and sound foolish, but others still work just fine thank you.

Others just make no sense in today’s world. “Roll down your window” and “Hang up the phone” just to name a couple.
