  At Culips we work in a team, so here’s an episode with expressions used to talk about working in a group. We have a couple idioms that express how positive it can be to work in a group, and one that says sometimes working in a group can cause problems. Do too many cooks really spoil the broth 1? Are two heads really better than one? You’re the judge in this episode!



  Maura: Sometimes when you’re sitting at home and you’re trying to brainstorm 2 by yourself, you can’t think of anything. And then when you turn to someone and you ask them about an idea, sometimes the ideas just come so much more easily.


  Harp 3: I find that this works for us at Culips all the time. When it’s the two of us together working on something, it goes so fast.


  Maura: Definitely. I don’t even waste time by myself thinking about all the different examples that we could use in our episodes. Now I just discuss them with you right before we record, and then our examples are even better because we had two heads thinking of it.


  Harp: Yes, because two heads are better than one.


  Maura: Yeah, two heads are better than one.
