179. Andy Quiz
It's the annual etymology quizlusionist! I’m on a family holiday for the first time since 1988, so enlisted my brother Andy Zaltzman of the Bugle podcast to test his/your wits on singing goats, explosives, mythological Greek sweeteners, attics, left-handedness and whales. Can you beat Andy’s score? Play along using the interactive scoresheet at theallusionist.org/andyquiz.
