Is it common to say "I'm remembering something" rather than "I remember something"?

Does the word "universe" in this context refer to "parallel worlds" instead of "space?"

Close! "Universe" in this context is similar to "world" or "reality". So then the phrase "every universe" implies "parallel worlds" - that there are multiple "realities" or "worlds." As "every" means all individual units. Ex: Every business in the country is closed for the holidays. Ex: If I had to travel to every universe to find you, I would.

What's he mean by "treacles?"

"Treacle" is a type of thick, dark syrup made of sugar. It's sometimes used to describe excessive flattery or sentimentality. Because it is a type of "sweet" (both metaphorically and literally), my guess is that the speaker uses "treacles" as a pet name for his audience, something similar to "sweeties." However, this is British English and not necessarily commonly used this way. Ex: Sweeties, I have a surprise for you. Ex: I like to add treacle to my batter when I bake.

What's she mean by "Idol" here?

Ex: Who's your favorite Idol winner?
