Episode 5: Gift of Flesh (with Josh Caldwell)This week, your Regarding…Slang hosts Wolfie, Scotzo, podcasting overlord Corey, and Chaz are joined by podcaster, musician, and self-described “boneless couch philosopher” Josh Caldwell as they crack open Slang's most feral track — “Gift of Flesh.”Before the amps even warm up, the gang detours through Phil Collins tributes (and coconut oil stories you'll never un-hear), heartfelt reflections on Chaz's fallen heroe Ace Frehley, and a debate over whether harmonies are a Def Leppard necessity or just one more thing to lose in the grunge fog. Josh and Corey call out the band for ditching their signature layered vocals, while Scott wonders if “Gift of Flesh” is what happens when Sheffield meets Seattle — and Wolfie swears it's Foo Fighters before Foo Fighters knew who they were.The song itself? A muscular, riff-driven outburst that sounds like Adrenalize and Soundgarden got drunk together and woke up in a dive bar bathroom, with the Colour and the Shape all over their pants. Caldwell praises the raw guitar tone and the acoustic drum sound (“finally, something human”), while everyone else argues whether the vocals are gritty authenticity or just Joe Elliott forgetting he's Joe Elliott. Somewhere in there, they discover a lost version called Black Train, debate whether Phil secretly sang lead, and compare the riff to Ozzy and Van Halen before things inevitably derail into stripper metaphors for commercial success.This episode features:

Once again, I want to give you a little update on the slang words that are trending in today's world of children and teens. I do this as a service so that you can overcome your chronic parental ignorance in order to understand your kids, and even use these words yourself in a fun-loving effort to embarrass your kids! The word Aura refers to someone's cool level. At times kids will give aura points to someone who has shown a high level of cool. If someone has crashed out they have lost their temper. Kids are glazing when they engage in overrating or hyping something up too much. Tuff, spelled T-U-F-F, is a synonym for awesome or excellent. The words bussin and smacks are often used to describe food that is very good. And if you are wondering how to refer to something that's good rather than bad, well, throw baddie, straight fire, or gas into the conversation. I know, it all sounds very confusing, but just like we did during our teen years, our kids are inventing and using slang.

Most Popular SlangAre you constantly confused by what young people are saying? The slang used by Gen Z and Gen Alpha is influenced by social media and Internet subculture and it changes all the time, A new study reveals the most popular slang today. “6-7” - With more than 141-thousand Google searches, it's number one, but it has no literal meaning. The “brain rot” humor was popularized by a Skrilla song and “6-7” is often paired with exaggerated hand gestures.“Bop” - It means someone who has a lot of romantic partners, as in someone who “bops around from person to person.” “Mogging” - It means outdoing someone by being more attractive or successful.“Looksmaxxing” - Similar to “mogging,” it refers to things people do to enhance their physical appearance, including everything from skincare to plastic surgery.“Huzz” - Another term for an attractive girl or someone you want to impress.“Chopped” - It's kind of the opposite of “huzz,” meaning something ugly, undesirable or unattractive.“Big back” - This refers to someone who's physically large or eats a lot of food.“Glazing” - It means heaping excessive and/or insincere praise on someone.“Zesty” - Someone who's lively, exciting or energetic.Update On Marcus' CarMarcus' car was found six blocks from where it was stolen. Nothing was missing. Nothing was messed up. It's like these thieves realized there are cameras everywhere two seconds after they stole it. Btw, if the police do recover your stolen car you have twenty minutes to pick it up or it is going to impound. However, they will not charge you for the first two days it is there. He's lucky, my friend Kim's car was stolen and the thieves peed in it.Taylor SwiftLove the new album, but we couldn't help noticing the racier lyrics and themes. My husband teased me saying she is not a little girl anymore. However, I am just not used to Tay Tay dropping F-bombs. D-bombs and talking about Travis Kelce's Redwood tree. Again, love the album but would like to hear from parents. How do you feel about the grown-up lyrics? Second Date UpdateEthan said he met Lacey online and they hit up a local brewery. They sampled flights, shared a giant pretzel, and even talked about taking a hike together soon. He thought it was an easy setup for a second date. She ghosted, and he wanted to know why.
