12: Unhelpful Advice
This week, in our special Unhelpful Advice themed episode. We answer questions from the self-proclaimed cocktail king on travel advice for couples; how we like to experience holidays together and how a couple who are both organised and spontaneous can enjoy travelling together. David asks why Mitch is a pathetic Brit and shares his empathy on his fear of complaining. And Marketa asks Isi for her advice on learning English, Isi shares her tips and experiences of learning English through school, work, friends and media. We also have an exciting NEW ANNOUNCEMENT for Easy English at the start!

Isi:
[0:24] Okay, what do we do today Mitch? Tell me.
Mitch:
[0:28] Today is a weird day. (Why?) Because we're recording this in the very, very distant past.
Isi:
[0:37] Are we telling this?
Mitch:
[0:39] We're recording this in the very distant future. No, for the future, 'Back to the Future'. (Okay.) Marty!
Isi:
[0:46] When you hear this it will be a bit, a bit... long ago.
Mitch:
[0:51] Yeah, we're recording this for the future, but, when you're listening, this would have been recorded in the past, like 'Back to the Future', where he went to cowboy days and had sex with his mum.
Isi:
[1:00] You're very confusing.
Isi:
[1:12] So the first thing we have is an...
Mitch:
[1:14] Exciting update! Easy English is now expanding its membership to now include conversational lessons? (No.) Conversational... (No.) Conversation...
Isi:
[1:30] It's called the conversation membership and it's not a lesson, but it's a conversation meeting, I would say. It's a meeting where we talk English. Yeah, we did this because we heard from a lot of you, what you really lack is English practice because, you don't live in an English-speaking country or you don't have friends to speak to, or colleagues to speak to and it's just not in your everyday life. And to learn a language, this is really important to just speak, to use the language and to make mistakes and to hear someone speaking and react on this. So we thought, it would be a lot of fun... sorry, I took over from you, is that okay? (Keep going.) To meet once a week, in a virtual online pub, so it's an online meeting. And, pub-style-ish, we'll come with our favourite drink and we talk about everything life.
