Everyone loves a good curse world every now and again, including Fred Flinston.

If you've been living under a rock (see what I we did there), The Flintstones was an animated sitcom set in the Stone Age and follows the activities of the titular family, the Flintstones, and their next-door neighbors, the Rubbles.

It was originally broadcast on American network from September 30, 1960 to April 1, 1966, and was the first animated series to hold a prime time slot on television.

The continuing popularity of The Flintstones rests heavily on its juxtaposition of modern everyday concerns in the Stone Age setting.

The Flintstones was the most financially successful and longest-running network animated television series for three decades, until The Simpsons, which debuted in late 1989, outlasted it.

In 2013, TV Guide ranked The Flintstones the second-greatest TV cartoon of all time, after The Simpsons.

But it turns out Fed and co. loved to use a curse word, which Dave revealed on-air today. Hit pay to hear Dave's World in full.
