1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Those old saints, phrases, idioms, you know those things, your

2
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:05,480
family and friends. They would usually say something that came

3
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:07,320
from out of nowhere, and it was like, what the

4
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:09,599
heck are you even talking about? And yet it makes

5
00:00:09,599 --> 00:00:13,240
complete sense. They had to start somewhere, who, what, where, why,

6
00:00:13,359 --> 00:00:16,079
when and how. Some of those old saints are not

7
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:19,399
only ancient, but still carry a powerful punch even today.

8
00:00:19,559 --> 00:00:21,399
In fact, I live by one of those old saints.

9
00:00:21,879 --> 00:00:24,920
Winning is a choice. That's not a saying to me,

10
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,839
that's a lifestyle. That is a mantra. That is a

11
00:00:28,879 --> 00:00:31,199
way to walk and grow forward. You've heard of the

12
00:00:31,239 --> 00:00:34,119
foot fist way. It is the way. Winning is a choice.

13
00:00:34,719 --> 00:00:37,399
The goal of these episodes is to help preserve not

14
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:41,520
only a language, but lessons in life. My name is

15
00:00:41,719 --> 00:00:46,439
Arrow Goodie two Shoes. Oh, I remember saying this to

16
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,799
my little sister. Oh, you're being such a goody Goody

17
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,600
two shoes. Now, I'm not shocked. But this is something

18
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:56,560
that hasn't been new to our livelihood. It actually began

19
00:00:56,719 --> 00:00:59,759
in English literature in the eighteenth century with the children's

20
00:00:59,759 --> 00:01:04,079
book The History of Little Goody two Shoes. In this story,

21
00:01:04,159 --> 00:01:07,079
the main character is a poor orphan girl named Margaret

22
00:01:07,159 --> 00:01:12,000
Meanwell who only owns one shoe. After someone gives her

23
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,439
a complete pair, she shows them off, shouting out two shoes,

24
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,480
two shoes. She grew up leading of her vose life,

25
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,519
meaning having high standards. Bud but but but but but.

26
00:01:23,519 --> 00:01:26,680
How did the meaning of goody two shoes change over

27
00:01:26,799 --> 00:01:30,079
in the years. Well, it made a shift toward mocking

28
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,400
a person in the nineteenth century. If you were coming

29
00:01:32,439 --> 00:01:35,879
across as smug or self righteous, you'd hear stop being

30
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,319
a goody, goodye two shoes. It's kind of like calling

31
00:01:39,359 --> 00:01:43,200
a person a teacher's pet. It's physical act of ribbing

32
00:01:43,239 --> 00:01:46,040
someone for being good all the time. Here's one we

33
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:50,920
hear today, Are you brown nosing the boss? Deeper research

34
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,719
shows they overlap when being used as a negative, but

35
00:01:54,799 --> 00:01:59,000
are not connected. Goodie two shoes is about being overly good,

36
00:01:59,319 --> 00:02:02,560
whereas a brown noser is someone who sucks up to

37
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,879
another person. It's less about being vervose and more about

38
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:12,080
self interest. Stop being a goody goody two shoes when

39
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,719
in reality, when the story started it was actually very positive.

40
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,080
It's something our parents would say. My name is Arro,
