February 08, 2023#206 Survive a Zombie Outbreak with Inverted Conditionals
In this episode, I talk about my advice on surviving a zombie outbreak based on my extensive experience watching zombie TV series and playing video games. It's a bit of fun, but we also include some pretty advanced grammar.

While talking, I use the inverted versions of the first, second and third conditionals.

February 01, 2023#205 Why Take a Break?
Why should we take a break? Well, there are many reasons! In this episode, I talk about some of the benefits of taking a break from coffee, work, relationships, and more. We look at the phrase "Distance makes the heart grow fonder".

January 11, 2023#202 British Humour, Puns and Jokes
Although my lessons on jokes have always been a bit awkward in the past, let's have a go at covering it in a podcast episode today. We'll be looking at 5 jokes; each has a word or expression we can learn from. You may not laugh at the jokes, but I hope you have fun anyway.

January 04, 2023#201 Shopping & Consumerism
With the Christmas and the holiday season, we tend to buy a lot and consumerism is rampant. With that, I thought an episode about shopping would be timely. In this episode, we'll look at lots of great expressions and vocabulary while chatting about this topic.
