An idiom is a phrase or expression that typically presents a figurative, non-literal meaning attached to the phrase; but some phrases become figurative idioms while retaining the literal meaning of the phrase. Categorized as formulaic language, an idiom's figurative meaning is different from the literal meaning.[1] Idioms occur frequently in all languages; in English alone there are an estimated twenty-five million idiomatic expressions.

Journey of Joy
Joy T. Williams
After my dad passed in 2014 I needed to do a deep introspection, and this podcast captures my journey from healing to joy. Well, that is how this podcast got started. It has now morphed into a dialogue of life events with my faith being an integral part of the conversation, but also more! The list is as vast and as limited as my life experiences, so come take a peek at the many adventures I share with you. Folks of different faiths, agnostics, and even atheists have described these conversations as insightful, challenging, and entertaining. Hope you will join the conversation!

For F1's Sake
Ollie, Terry & Phill
Ten years of reviewing every grand prix with a satirical slant. Formula 1 needed fixing - and now it's fixed. Job done.From 2015-25, Cheeka, Terry, Phill and latterly Ollie met in a pub and complained about the sport they loved because of daddy issues - listen back to seminal moments and, if you like what they did... buy them a pint! We may return. Probably when Netflix gets bored.
