Mitch:

[0:25] Hello and welcome to the Easy English Podcast.

Isi:

[0:28] Hello, hello, hello. Test, test, one, two.

Mitch:

[0:32] Red lorry, yellow lorry. Red lorry, yellow lorry. Red lorry, yellow lorry.

Isi:

[0:36] Yed... already done. Red lorry, yellow lorry. Red lorry, yellow lorry. No, I can't.

Mitch:

[0:43] Peter Piper picked a pickled pepper.

Isi:

[0:45] Okay. Episode 11. Nice number, isn't it? In Germany, we say Schnapsal. (What, sorry?) Schnapsal.

Mitch:

[0:53] What's this?

Isi:

[0:54] Schnaps number.

Mitch:

[0:55] Eleven?

Isi:

[0:56] Yeah, everything with like, the same numbers. Eleven, three hundred and thirty three.

Mitch:

[0:59] It makes me think of number eleven from Stranger Things.

Isi:

[1:04] There we are again.

Mitch:

[1:05] Mike! Mike!

Isi:

[1:08] Okay, what's our topic, Mitch?

Mitch:

[1:10] Okay.

Isi:

[1:11] You said you prepared everything. I'm just here.

Mitch:

[1:13] This is good though. We can surprise each other with topics, maybe.

Isi:

[1:17] Nola's just sitting in front of me, waiting for me to give her F-O-O-D. We cannot say the word, because then she will get excited.

Mitch:

[1:25] The magic word. Feed me! (Okay.) First topic is related to one of our past week's episodes, in which, I went down onto the streets and I had some pre-recorded local British people, including British Isles, including Ireland, reading out a transcript and I made people from Britain, guess where they're from. And now I want to test you. You've been in Britain for some time now.

Isi:

[1:55] Oh God!

Mitch:

[1:57] How do you fancy your chances?

Isi:

[2:00] Not good. .

Mitch:

[2:11] Okay. (Let's go.) Let's try some. (Let's try, yeah.)
