Listen Later

The Easy English Podcast has made it to 10 episodes! Mitch and Isi discuss the pros and cons of the modern interpretation of the British motto 'Keep Calm And Carry On' in relation to ongoing building works in their block of flats.

Intro

Isi:

[0:24] That's episode number 10.

Mitch:

[0:28] 10 is the magic number.

should we directly jump into the topic of the... day? Topic of the day? What is our category named? Topic of the... (Week.) Week.

Topic of the Week

Isi:
[0:50] Okay, Topic of the Week. (I've forgotten what it is.) I know what it is. (I've forgotten.) When English people are too polite.

Mitch:

[0:58] Ah yeah.

Isi:

[0:59] How would you call that? It's actually coming from my point of view.

Mitch:

[1:03] Well, I'd call it the... the lack of backbone. But, it has a name. Well, it's actually a phrase, which all Brits kind of, inadvertently stick to, which is 'keep calm and carry on'. Someone, somewhere, listening to this, probably has a tote bag, they bought, that one time they came to London, which has 'keep calm and carry on', with a crown behind it or something. You see it everywhere (Yeah?) in these souvenir shops.
