Episode 61: Listener Questions
In this episode, I answer three questions from listeners around the world. Why do Americans smile at strangers on the street? Why is it so hard to understand native speakers even after years of study? What is the most surprising thing about living in New York City? As with all episodes, this one is just the right length for practicing your listening skills in one sitting.
