"Dirty Thirties" Slang: Butter and Egg Man

A segment on 1930s slang terms defines "Butter and Egg Man" as a man with a large bankroll and "Cabbage" as cash. Other terms explored include "Canary" (female vocalist), "Buzzer" (police badge), and "Sweet Patootie" (an attractive woman). The hosts express a desire to bring back these vintage phrases into modern conversation.
