E80: Ever wondered why people say "how's things" instead of "how are things"? Curious about phrases like "hit it off" or "is that a silly question"? Today's episode is just the ticket for you. We're navigating the sea of English phrases, focusing on words and expressions used in the previous episode where I had a chat with Martin from Rock n' Roll English about the changing face of the British high street.

We examine what these phrases mean, how they're used, and why we even us natives say things incorrectly sometimes! From "being a lightweight" and "being middle-aged" to "pluck up the courage", we take a microscope to the colloquialisms that pepper our everyday conversations. And remember, we always love hearing your thoughts and feedback, so don't hesitate to get in touch after tuning in.

E79: Join us for a nostalgic trip down memory lane with Martin, host of the Rock n' Roll English podcast. We kick off the episode exploring Martin's journey into podcasting and his show's unique name. As the conversation progresses, the spotlight shifts onto the ever-changing landscape of the British high street. We compare notes on our favourite high street shopping experiences at home and overseas, and examine the impact of online shopping and the Covid-19 pandemic on local businesses. Expect some thought-provoking insights as we delve into the surge of new stores like hairdressers, nail salons, vape shops, and mobile phone repair shops, a clear reflection of changing habits amongst the younger generation.
