Scott and Steve discuss the origin and history of the word "propaganda", starting with its propagation (get it?) in the Counter-Reformation era Catholic Church and lots of Italians to its modern day pejorative meaning from World War I. And, logically, this discussion brings up Hitler, Zorro the Gay Blade, a Cardinal nicknamed Chito, and Neil Young's burgeoning career in MMA.

For New Slang, Scott discusses the term "Love Bomb."
