About this episode
This episode explores the idiomatic expression 'throw ideas at the wall' and its practical implications in brainstorming.
“Throw ideas at the wall” 是一种什么样的 “把主意往墙上扔” 的 “奇怪行为” 吗？其实不然！这个表达源于一句生动的俗语——“if you throw enough mud at the wall, then some of it will stick.” 它在工作和生活中，其实形容的是 “在未经深思熟虑的情况下，一口气提出一大堆主意，以此期待其中的某一个能碰巧奏效” 的做法。听节目，跟主持人菲菲和 Phil 学习如何使用这个有趣的表达。
