[It is also used to mean: provide ample food or lots of entertainment, for example]. | |

| Mar 19, 2019 at 20:27 | comment | added | Baffo rasta | This may be helpful (for some reason there's something related to Olympics in the frame). What about the "laid on you" part? Thanks | |

| Mar 19, 2019 at 20:19 | comment | added | Hot Licks | My wild guess is that the fortunate (??) listener won some sort of prize (or perhaps a group of prizes) in a radio contest. "Sweep" suggests winning consecutive contests, and "super golden" is just apparently derived from the contest naming. | |
| Mar 19, 2019 at 20:16 | comment | added | Baffo rasta | @HotLicks that was what I figured out. Still I am appointed to translate this so I'd like to understand what it means. Thanks for any help. | |
