Hey Driftglass,
Thanks for the podcast! No Friday is complete without it.
Hey, the word you are looking for is "shellacking." The dictionary even uses it in the definition!
shellackingpresent participle of shel·lac (Verb)
(1) Varnish (something) with shellac.
(2) Defeat or beat (someone) decisively: "they were shellacked in the election".
Sorry to be a pedant, but I know you care about words and language and writing as much as I do.
That post-election dollar? That's a good dollar!
Where can I listen to that radio show you hosted?
I agree with HitandMiss. I would like to listen to this radio broadcast.
Mike.K.
