Winners and Sinners
Summary
Cameron Hill and Saoirse Hanley discuss the etymology of common phrases like "chance one's arm" and "hang it in the 16th chapel." Cameron highlights Wicklow councillor Joe Behan for his graceful handling of a viral video featuring accidental horror music, while Saoirse names herself a sinner for bringing pungent tuna salad to the office. The pair also critique the French police's violent response to student protests and share lighthearted stories about buying deodorant in France and purchasing a Marty Morrissey calendar.
