And I have made, I have created 100 episodes ... 99 episodes, this is the 100th one,

But yeah, you have learned, you have learned, hopefully, hopefully, so I really hope you have learned something, and even a little more than that.

Oh, it has been a long, long run, it has been a run because the idea, the idea behind this podcast is to give you the basis, the basis to listen, to communicate and to use, to use English better and better.

And I have tried to do that in 10 steps. Let's have a little recap, recap, so let's go back in time.

#1 So, in episodes from 1 to 9, from 1 to 9, I have given you, I have given you Basic Information , basic information about me, about you, about how to talk about yourself and how to talk about basic things, objects around you.

#2 Step 2, episodes 10 to 19, I have talked about Towns And Places, also about time and everyday life, my everyday life and for you to copy that to copy and try and talk about your everyday life.

#3 Then, step 3, episodes 20 to 29, Travelling. I have talked about countries and how to communicate when you travel.

#4 Then, step 4, episodes 30 to 39 and that's Shopping. Cool, you have learned, hopefully, you have learned how to buy stuff, also how to sell stuff and, oh, maybe how not to buy too much, as I did.

#5 Step 5, episodes 40 to 49, Fashion and Clothes. Oh yeah, I do remember that. I have talked about fashion and clothes and I'm such an expert right now.

#6 And also, episodes 50 to 59, in step 6, I have talked about Food and Eating. Yeah, I'm an expert too, if you didn't know that, sure, sure.

#7 Then, comes step 7, episodes 60 to 69 and that's Transport and Getting Around, where I talked about planes and cars and how I get around, get around. So that's transport and now,

#8 Step 8, episodes 70 to 79, I have talked about Homes and Furniture and, well, our disappointment, disappointment, so when we are not happy with the place that we just rented.

#9 Step 9, episodes 80 to 89 and that's Health And the Body, where you have learned, you have learned a lot, a lot about medicine, medicine and, well, okay, I'm an expert too, obviously, call me a doctor.

#10 And the last step, step 10, episodes 90 to 99, a fun, fun, fun step, Hobbies And Interests, what we like and what we don't like, what I like and maybe you also like.

So that has been 10 big steps, 10 episodes, every step of the way. And in between them, in between, there have been, there have been, grammar episodes, grammar episodes.

Oh yeah, you have not noticed that, have you? Every third episode is a grammatical one: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21 and so on. So please listen to them carefully. One time, two times, three, four, five times, until you get them, get them.

And if you have understood everything and if you can talk about yourself like that, you have made it, you have made it and you are ready for the next level.

Yeah, so it has been a great, great run and I'm so happy, I'm really happy that I have made it, which means you have made it.

Luke Likes 'Not Really Into This'

Yeah, I'm not really into a lot of things, and when you say you are not into, you are not into something, you don't really like doing that, and you are not a fan, a fan. So let's find out, find out more about that.

Board games, board games. Yeah why not, why not, I am into board games, but I must say not a very very good player. Especially when it comes to chess. Wait, that's a board game right? Yeah, so I am into playing chess but need to get better, definitely better. Sure it is a lot of fun when a lot of people can join in, so do it together, join in.

Cars. Oh, that's so funny, that is so funny. Okay, I am told, so my parents tell me, I am told that when I was a child, I was so so into cars, and I would cry, cry a lot if a book didn't have a picture of a car, or the story was not about cars. Yeah, and now, when I think of cars, I think, 'oh my goodness, what now, what do I have to repair now?' Oh, yeah, but alright, to be honest, overall, I don't mind, I don't mind, which means I am okay with that, I am okay with cars.

Oh, pets, pets. Oh, obviously I am such a huge fan, I am a huge fan of cats, and dogs, and fish, and pigs, and horses, and mice, and giraffes, and squirrels, and tigers, and spiders, and birds, and... Okay, I think you know what I mean.

Gardening, gardening. Well, I am into gardening, but how to put it, how to put it, let's say, gardening is not really into me,because the plants just hate me, hate me, and whatever I do, whatever I try, it all ends the same way, meaning not good, not good for plants. But I don't give up, I don't give up.

Fashion and clothes. Well, I am a little bit into fashion, because I do choose clothes, the ones that I wear, but I don't follow, I don't follow fashion trends that much. But obviously I appreciate, I appreciate when somebody has a good sense, good sense of style. Yeah, let's leave it at that.

Oh, interior design, interior design. So the way our houses and flats and buildings are designed and arranged, arranged. And yeah, I think I am a little bit into that as well. I think I don't know much about that, but certainly, certainly I am impressed, impressed when I see something new and interesting and I also can appreciate that. Oh, and then I want to have it, and that's a problem.

Cooking, cooking. Oh, okay, the thing is this, I am not a food person, I am not a food person, but I am trying, I am trying, and cooking is not really my thing, it is not my thing, but on the other hand, on the other hand, I want to be better at that, and there are people around me that really want to help me with it. So I just need to follow, follow their lead, follow their lead, so basically listen to what they tell me, and just do it. But now, yeah, really, not my thing, it is not my thing now. I mean, yet.

New technologies, new technologies. Oh my. Well, I think I am into this, well, who isn't, who isn't? I guess you have to be right now, and obviously it's very practical to take advantage of what there is out there, what there is out there. Take advantage, so use it, use it. So yes, I am, yes, I am, but I am not a huge fan, like some people are.

Are you into this stuff, are you into this kind of stuff? I can tell, I can tell what you really are into. I am sure, and I really, really hope you are, and this is really your thing, because we are both huge fans, we are both huge fans.

Yeah, that's right, it's languages, languages. Just crazy about them.

Well, it's your turn now. Embrace the day, people!

Luke Likes 'Be Bored'

I have a little free time right now, so what can I do? Why don't we go to the cinema? Why don't we go to the cinema and watch a movie? How about that? Nope? not a good idea?

How about this? We stay at home and watch something at our place. What do you say? Nope? you don't like that? You don't like that?

Alright, how about this? We go on social media and watch videos. You can't say no, you can't say no to that. Oh, come on. So you don't want to go and watch a movie at the cinema. Then you are telling me you don't want to watch anything at home. And even, you don't even want to watch a video on social media.

Are you saying that we are not going to watch anything and just sit like that in silence? Is it really possible to do that? Oh, come on. Let's just at least put on some music. We cannot just sit like that in silence, can we? Why? Oh, I don't know why. It is just weird. It is strange. It is weird, strange. We don't do that, but I don't know why. But still, we don't, we don't. Or, maybe?

Okay, here is my final idea. Tonight, let's not watch anything. And let's not listen to anything either. Let's not do that either. Let's not read, listen, scroll on your phone. Let's not talk. And let's not move. Let's not move either.

Let's not go out. Let's just stay in. Let's not think about tomorrow. And let's not plan anything. Also, let's not worry about yesterday. Let's not go out and run. And let's not go out and go to the gym. No, let's not do that either. Oh, oh, oh, and let's not text. Let's not text our friends. Let's not do that.

Let's not clean. Let's not paint. Let's not go out and do some shopping. Let's not be active. Let's not work, of course. Come on, this is free time.Oh, oh, oh, let's not go online. And let's not do online shopping. Let's not think what we are going to do on holiday. Let's not plan the dinner and what we need to buy to make it.

So, what then? I have a little free time right now and I choose not to do anything. Can I really do that? Please? This is really harder than you think and I don't think we really do that anymore, or we can do that.

And what I realized, realized is that I can't really do that myself, can you? Okay, so this is what I'm going to do. I'm going to put away my phone. Put away. I'm going to switch off the music. Switch off the TV. I'm going to sit down and not read. I'm not going to snack on anything. Snack or move too much.

Just sit and relax and say to myself, 'hmm, this is quite uncomfortable'. I don't know why but I really, really, really feel uncomfortable right now because I feel like I should be doing something and I'm not. And this is so weird that I don't really remember last time I did that, but at the same time I feel okay with that.

What is this feeling? I can't really remember what it feels like. Am I getting sick or something? Right now I would like to look it up, look it up and find out more about it but I don't have my phone around. Wait! No, it can't be true. No way!

Wait! Am I getting bored? Yes, I am. And you know what? I like it.

Well, it's your turn now. Embrace the day, people!

Luke Likes 'Excited'

How are you feeling today? Hope everything is alright. And me? Well, I am feeling excited today. Because the weekend is coming. The weekend is coming and I'm feeling excited. Very excited about the weekend.

I can't say why really, because nothing exciting is going to happen. Nothing exciting, but the weekend itself, weekend itself is pretty exciting. And I can do a lot of stuff that usually I do not have a lot of time for, like rest, having some rest. Yeah, we all need that.

So now I am feeling excited. And at the end of the weekend, on Sunday evening, on Sunday evening, I think I will feel a little worried. I think you know why, I think you know why. I will feel a little worried, because the new week might be a little difficult. And it is a little worrying, worrying.

And what else, what else am I feeling? I must say I am feeling a little tired, but not so much. But that was a long, long week so it was quite tiring, tiring. A lot of things to do, a lot of things to do. As usual.

Well, I know I am also a little annoyed, annoyed, so a little angry and irritated, irritated, so annoyed, because of the weather. Yeah, it is very annoying when you have some free time and you cannot go out and do some sports, for example. Yeah, it is annoying and irritating, irritating.

Yeah, well, it is what it is, it is what it is. I am not going to get depressed, depressed about that. But the weather might be a little depressing. Oh God, it is still summer time, it is still summer time. Anyway, anyway, I will also say I am not shocked by this bad weather. I am not shocked. The clouds, the rain, it's not really shocking to me. It isn't, it is not shocking at all.

In fact, in fact, I am a little surprised actually. I am a little surprised because the temperature is not that bad, is not that low. So the temperature is quite surprising. It is still 20 degrees Celsius. So a little surprising that I am sure that a lot of people are not satisfied, are not satisfied with that. Yeah, those conditions, weather conditions are not satisfying.

Okay, so what am I going to do at the weekend? I hope I can find something interesting to do, interesting to do. Let me think, I am interested, interested in languages of course. So I will study some languages. I am interested in sports, so I will do some interesting sports. And we will see. I am sure that I will not be bored, I will not be bored. But if I am, I have to say I am okay with that. I am okay with that.

I just need some time to sit back, sit back and relax a little. And you know what? You should do it too, you should do it too. So sit back, relax and tell me, are you interested? Or are you confused because it is all confusing? Are you tired? Fascinated? Maybe you are worried? Maybe it is all annoying to you and you are feeling annoyed?

I hope you are not too bored, too bored with that. And oh gosh, please don't say you are disappointed, disappointed. Enjoy the weekend!

Well, it's your turn now. Embrace the day, people!

Luke Likes 'Peace And Quiet'

⁠⁠Oh, free time, finally, finally, some free time. Ah, but imagine this, imagine you are lying in bed and you are at a hospital. How fun is that? How fun is that? Not really, not really. Well, we all know that. But, you do want to get better, so you need to stay there, for some time, some time.

I'm sure you are very worried, worried about your health and what is going to happen. That's okay. And I'm sure you will get better eventually. And in the meantime, in the meantime, you can use this time. Hmm, is that three time, really? When you are in hospital?

I wouldn't say that. But still, it is very, very different and you don't need to go anywhere. Well, you can't go anywhere. So, in that case, in that case, so in this situation, in that case, you can do quite a lot, quite a lot to keep yourself busy and hopefully, hopefully, so I hope, hopefully, make your stay a little fun.

Hmm, let me think. So what can you do? What can you do? Hey, what did you do at a hospital? Well, I slept finally. I could sleep all day long, all day long. Yeah, you can do that, obviously. You need to sleep. Well, I need to sleep too. Oh my.

Or, let's go to oldschool here, oldschool. How about reading a book, reading a book or a magazine? How about that? If not, obviously, you can watch a series, a movie, a video, a tiktok. Yeah, lots, lots of tiktoks. Okay, that is pretty obvious.

And me, for example, I would spend a lot of time listening to podcasts. Maybe finding some new ones, finding some new ones or catching up on, catching up on the old ones, so, listening to the ones that I didn't have time to listen to before. Yeah. Free time. You have all the free time in the world right now.

You could also talk to your friends on the phone, so call your friends and family to catch up. Again, catch up, because you didn't have time to do that before. So now that you are at a hospital, why don't you do it now? Hey, how have you been? How have you been? What's up? How's the family and the dog? Yeah, do that.

If not, maybe a game. Yeah, let's find you a game of Sudoku. Oh, a crossword puzzle, crossword puzzle. Hmm, maybe in English. Oh, speaking of languages. No excuses right now. No excuses. You have all the time in the world to do some learning, to do some studying. Yeah, you might think you were a little behind, so you didn't do enough work. So now is the best time to do that. Yeah, at a hospital, exactly.

And then do some shopping, online shopping. Oh yeah, that's a fun activity. Maybe some clothes or something for the house. Yeah, plan how to redecorate your house. How about that? Yeah, not a bad idea, actually. Not a bad idea.

Okay, what else? Hmm, okay, maybe limit the social media for some time. And hey, you are into painting, right? So you like it, you like it, you like painting, you are into painting, or drawing. I think that's possible in a hospital bed, is it?

You could also try and find a nice tutorial. So a little video to help you learn something new about painting, but maybe some other cool stuff, like playing an instrument. Well, you will not learn that at a hospital, but that's a nice start, that's a nice start.

You will take up, take up something new. So start doing something new that you might like. Who knows, maybe this is something that you always wanted to do, like photography or gardening, DIY, like making new furniture by yourself.

Or maybe finally you just want to have some peace and quiet, have some rest.

Get some rest, and you will get better in no time.

Well, it's your turn now. Embrace the day, people!

Luke Likes 'Listen'

Hey, do you know what I realized? What I realized just now Well, that pretty much all the time, okay, not all the time, most of the time, so pretty much most of the time, every day, during the day, in the morning, in the evening I listen to stuff. I use my headphones for that. Oh, it depends, it depends, so whatever the situation is, it depends.

Anyway, I listen to a lot of, a lot of stuff. Now, this is mostly podcasts in different languages. And different reasons so why I listen to them, reasons, but it used to be, it used to be a little different because that used to be mostly music.

Yeah, I realized that it changed a little. And I am wondering if this is because of me, because I changed or because, well, the situation changed and the times changed as well. But whatever the reason, whatever it is, I still like music. Come on, who doesn't?

And today, for example, I just remember it how much fun it is. How much fun it is to listen to some music you enjoy and, and, and this is really, really fun to explore, explore new music. I just love this feeling when you can find something totally, completely new. And you can't get enough of that. You just keep coming back and listen to that over and over again.

I used to do that a lot when I was a teenager and later on in my life. And I remember back then, back then, I didn't need much more than that.Really, just me and my music. That was it. And now, okay, I don't want to say that. I don't have enough time for music.That just..., no, I will not say that. Now I just choose to listen to podcasts more than music.

And when do I listen to music? Well, definitely when I do sports. I put on my earbuds and off we go. It makes the experience much, much more enjoyable this way. Enjoyable, so a lot of fun, enjoyable. Well, and I do not need to say that it gives a lot of energy. And I feel more motivated, motivated, yes, I do have motivation to keep going, just keep going. And obviously, this is more of an energetic upbeat, energetic upbeat, so quite fast music.

Which, by the way, I do not listen to, I do not listen to when I'm not doing sports. So my playlist, so the list of music I listen to is a little misleading, misleading. So when you say that something is misleading, it gives you a wrong impression, misleading. Because this is just a part of me, and we could say just a part of me that needs this kind of music. Rock music, for example, not so much pop music.

Otherwise, so if it isn't this or that, otherwise, it is much, much calmer. And my family used to say melancholic, that's a cool word, melancholic. Well, that's just sad music, let's say, sad. Not sad, but just feeling sad, in a way, in a way. And what is the best way to sound like that, to sound melancholic? Yeah, that's the piano, that's the piano, beautiful, beautiful sound.

So this is what I'm going to do tonight, just me and my music.

Well, it's your turn now. Embrace the day, people!

So again, again - Do I want to do it? Do I want to do it? Or do I like? Do I like doing it? Want to/Like. Obviously, I like doing it. We will see. Let's go.

I like studying languages. I like studying, studying languages. And I love studying languages. And I enjoy studying languages. All of that. No surprises here.

So, I like studying, I love studying, and I enjoy studying languages. Well, I enjoy doing other things too. And I love other things too, like I love playing with my dog. Yeah, let's leave it at that.

But also, I hate doing a lot of things. Oh, the list can be very long here. I hate doing paperwork. I hate doing paperwork. It means I hate doing all the office work and documents, things like that. And I can't stand, I can't stand. Oh, I know. I can't stand waking up early morning. I can't stand doing that. Yuck. And I prefer, I prefer waking up a little later.

So, I hate doing paperwork. I can't stand waking up early. And I prefer waking up a little later. But still, in the morning. Well, I'm a hater here. Whatever.

And now, I started. I started learning. I started learning a new language. Portuguese. So great. And I stopped, I stopped worrying. I stopped worrying about everything. That's not true. Yeah, I would like that. And I spend, I spend too much time. I spend too much time... Sometimes I spend too much time deciding, deciding what to buy. So I spend too much time deciding what to buy. Actually, I do. I hate this.

So, I started learning a new language. I stopped worrying too much. And I spend too much time deciding what to buy.

Just three more to go, okay? Three more. Oh, I'm not very good. I'm not very good at, I'm not very good at playing tennis. I'm not very good at playing tennis. But I keep doing that. I keep playing. I keep playing regularly. Yeah, I don't give up. I just keep playing. And how about, how about, or what about? So, oh, how about playing tennis today? How about playing tennis today? What do you think? What do you think? How about, how about playing? Yeah, sounds good. Sounds really, really good.

So, I'm not very good at playing. But I keep doing that. How about playing with me today? How about playing with me?

Okay, so time for a recap.

I like studying and I enjoy studying and I love studying languages. But I hate doing paperwork and I can't stand waking up in the morning, early morning, and I prefer waking up a little later.

And now I started learning a new language. I stopped worrying, worrying too much. And, oh, I spend too much time deciding what to buy.

And finally, I'm not very good at playing tennis. But I keep doing that. So, how about joining me? How about playing with me? And maybe teaching, teaching how to be better at that?

Well, I have to say, I have to say, it's really not the point. I'm just having lots of, lots of fun. Have fun learning new things.

Well, it's your turn now. Embrace the day, people!

Luke Likes 'Good For Your Body'

Summer time. Summer time is great. That's a great, great time. And it is even better when you get to have some free time for yourself. Well, not everyone can have it, unfortunately. But still, still, it is an awesome, fantastic time.

How do you spend that time? I'm sure you are travelling, get to know new places, and get to do new things. Oh, that's nice - try and experience, experience. So in English, when you say you experience new things, you, well, you just do them, maybe for the first time, and you will remember what it is like to do it and try it. Pretty cool. Good for you, good for you.

And me? Well, I have my sports. Yeah! So if someone asked you, 'what would you do if you had some free time? What would you do then?' Would you meet your friends? Maybe. Would you travel? Yeah, definitely. Would you get some rest and watch something? Maybe go out and see people. Yeah, all of them are great ideas. I'm sure.

But me? I do sports. Well, and languages. I am crazy about that too. Today, for example, I got to play basketball. About two hours, two hours, outdoors, and that was amazing. I felt really good. Now I feel tired, but at the same time, I feel happy because this is what I get from basketball.

And I used to, used to play volleyball as well, volleyball. It is not very popular in every part of the world, but some countries play volleyball a lot, quite a lot. And this is a lot of fun. Yeah, I used to play on a team at school, but I had to choose between basketball and volleyball. That was just too much. But then I also played with my friends, very regularly, regularly. Oh, wow, that's a difficult word to say in English. Rregularly. So I did, and I still would like to do that.

What else? I need to tell you that all my family is a little crazy about sport. So they are all runners. For example, my younger brother and my older sister are right now actually at a runners' camp in the mountains. Imagine that! And they get to run pretty much all the time, I suppose. But from what they tell me, this is a morning practice and an evening practice.

And in between, there are some sessions, meetings and workshops, so the time when they instruct them, how to get better at the technique, technique. And believe me or not, there is a lot of technique involved, involved, so about it. yeah, involved, a lot of technique.

Yeah, and my older brother used to swim a lot. He used to be a swimmer, and he took part, he took part in competitions, sports competitions, at school, at school, obviously. And he rides a bike a lot, he runs as well. Like my father, my mum is also very active, and my cousins, all of them. So it is very natural, natural for me to do sports.

Oh, and obviously I love tennis. It is just amazing. And at the same time, very frustrating, frustrating. Do you know this feeling, to feel frustrated? I'm sure you do. When something doesn't go your way, you feel frustrated. This is what tennis gives me a lot. But from time to time, it is also fun.

Hmm, what else, what else? Walking is a great sport. Well, maybe not a sport, but a great, great activity. And going to the gym. Oh, a lot of people do that. Yeah, and I do that myself. I quite like it, but it is more of a routine for me.

Yeah, and there is a lot, a lot, a lot more sports. Ooh, windsurfing, cool. Football, hmm, yeah, why not? Oh, handball, that's a team sport, handball. Oh, and yoga. Yeah, this is so, so good for your body.

Hmm, like all the sports. Do sport. Good for your body.

Well, it's your turn now. Embrace the day, people!
