Malaprops & Moxie

by Tay Flo

Sometimes words don't come out the way we intended them to. MAL·​A·​PROP·​ISM: the use of a word sounding somewhat like the one intended but ludicrously wrong in the context. And sometimes life doesn't happen the way we planned, but we power through and learn from it. MOX·​IE: energy, pep, courage determination. Listen along as host, Taylor Florio, brings in guests to share about when MALAPROPS happen in real life, and the MOXIE that gets us through.
