many cooks spoil the broth. Yeah. So you know, cooks of course they're the person

in charge of the cooking. You know, a broth of course you know, that's when

you're you're heating up like kind of like a soup that comes from you know,

originally cooking meat or vegetables in it. That's a broth. Okay. So let's continue

here. You can also hear this proverb used as too many cooks in the kitchen spoil

the broth. So sometimes people will add in the kitchen too. All right. Let's

continue. This proverb basically means if too many people are overseeing or trying

to control a project it will ruin it or cause it' to fail because you will

have to deal with too many conflicting opinions. Yeah. So there'll be too many

too much disagreement, too much arguments, and there's too many people who think

that they're in charge and they're running it and it could lead to chaos.

That's basically what they mean. Let's continue. The earliest sighting was by

writer George Gascorgne in 1575 who claims it was already a common proverb.

So he doesn't claim it he created it. He says he just put it one of his books and

he says that that was already common at that time. So we may not really know who

was the first one to actually say this. Okay. Let's continue. Another proverb that is a

little less common, but has exactly the same meaning is too many chiefs and not

enough Indians. I have heard this one even though I think too many cooks spoil

the broth is more common. We hear this more often , but again the same idea. The

Chiefs they're the ones in charge. The Indians are the ones that would probably

taking the orders from the chief. So if you've got too many chiefs and you don't

have enough Indians going on. Again, it causes chaos. It slows down work or the

project. So that's what they mean. All right. Let's take a look at some examples

here. Example number one. Congress is a good example

of too many cooks spoil the broth. Yeah. You know each, each representative is

kind of like a cook or you know kind of like a leader of a representative of

their own state. So and they all have to come to these agreements on bills. So

sometimes it can be so difficult to get bills past, because politicians from

different states all have different agendas. And some may like it , some may

not like it. Sometimes some of them you know you have to put what we call pork

in it. You have to promise that maybe you'll spend money on something else in

order to get their vote. Or you make another promise to them you know, or

otherwise they won't vote for this. And sometimes something that should be quite

simple to pass could become really difficult. Not impossible but it usually

takes a lot more money, wastes a lot more of the taxpayers money and takes a lot

longer than it should. They should probably be able to do it in a tenth of

the time that it usually takes them to do these things. All right. Let's continue.

Let's look at number two here. It is better to put one good manager in charge

of a project. If you have several managers on the same project it tends to

do more harm than good. Like they say, too many cooks spoil the

broth. Okay. Anyway, I hope you got it . I hope it was clear. Thank you for your time. Bye-

bye.
