Intro

Mitch:

[0:23] (Hey!) Hello Easy English peeps, welcome to the Easy English Podcast, how are you doing?

Isi

[0:30] That sounds so radio show-ish. Are you not into our podcast Mitch? My voice is a bit weird today isn't it?

Mitch:

[0:37] It's the second coffee podcast we've ever done. It's always a bit of a weird feeling. Uh, before we start with today's topic, I want to do a quick Unhelpful Advice / Your Messages section. Sound good? (Go for it.)

Unhelpful Advice

Mitch:

[0:59] We have, yeah this isn't a question, it's just a statement; "Easy English Podcast". There you go. (That was it?) Yeah that was it.

Isi

[1:09] Oh hello, then. That was hello wasn't it?

Mitch:

[1:12] Yeah.

Isi

[1:12] That was a greeting, maybe.

Mitch:

[1:14] Thank you for calling in. Uh yeah, that's us, that's our name, don't wear it out. Thank you for calling in. Our next one is um actually a question from uh someone who left us an audio message, who goes by the name of Arthur? I'd say Arthur, but i don't... that's very um... it's a very British sort of pronunciation.

Isi

[1:40] Think it's a name that is used in a lot of different languages. But maybe in a different way. Arthur, Arthur.

Mitch:

[1:46] Did you have a cartoon show called Arthur. And it's called yeah 'Hey Arthur'? (Yeah, yeah, yeah.) Did you? (I think I know that yeah, is that Nickelodeon?) Yeah! (Yeah, I know it yeah.) What a wonderful time to play, hey! And he had a sister called DW. (That is weird.) and his Neighbors were rhinoceroses and he was like a weird...

Isi

[2:06] His name was rhinoceros

Mitch:

[2:07] The neighbours were rhinoceroses and he had a crush on an elephant and he... but he was like a weasel or something. (Cute.) With glasses on. This isn't from a weasel with glasses on. This is from a normal person called Arthur. Here we go; "Hi, everyone. I am Arthur. I want to learn English, because I think, when I try to talk, to speak, it's very basic, because my vocabulary is minimal than the others. When I try to talk, with other person, maybe the other person might understand me, but I think so, that I need to speak very well, to have more vocabulary, I try to express it, maybe it sometimes it's very difficult to me, but I never... I think so that I'm nervous about speaking English. Thank you very much".
