Description

This week we're offering a peek behind the paywall by airing an episode on the main show that was originally intended as a bonus episode—shared just with our Patreon supporters.

This conversation is a lighthearted examination of what people say incorrectly—and why it bugs us so much. We are hard on ourselves as well (Tiffany finally tells Katy the mistake she makes that drive her crazy!) 

What are your grammar pet peeves? And what mistakes do Katy and Tiffany always make? You can email us to let us know your grammar pet peeves, or to tell us what mistakes we are unknowingly making!

And if you enjoy this BONUS episode, you could get access to two brand-new bonus episodes every single month (in addition to our sizable archive of past bonus episodes) by becoming a Patreon supporter, for as little as $5 per month! And you would be providing essential support to our independent podcast at the same time. If you love this show, please consider joining! Click here to find out how.
