Step into Linda’s Curiosity Corner for a fun dive into words we all use

from Optimize My Life · host Optimize My Life Live Talk Radio

Step into Linda’s Curiosity Corner for a fun dive into words we all use—without realizing some of them are protected brand names. Linda breaks down surprising trademarks like “brain freeze,” “ping pong,” “bubble wrap,” “onesies,” and more, plus the difference between everyday slang and what you can legally put on products or marketing. Then the conversation shifts to old-fashioned etiquette rules that have faded (and why), from formal introductions to airplane dress codes and whether you can toast with water. Along the way: winter life in Buffalo, classic manners, and a few laughs when Amazon’s Alexa decides to join the show on her own.
