Oh, and before you go, I just want to show you an excerpt of Luke's English podcast, in which he promotes my other show called my fluent podcast. So if you really like to listen to Interviews, my other show might be something for you.

4:12 Luke from Luke's English podcasts promotes My Fluent Podcast

If you want to am more than just the handful of people I'm talking to, uh, over the next few months on this podcast, then why not listen to Daniel Goodson, his podcast, which is called my fluent podcast. Daniel is an English learner from Switzerland, and he's also a podcaster documenting his journey with English and also interviewing various interesting people.
You have a lot to say on the subject, including various members of what we are calling the BRAVE 85, uh, those LEPsters who didn't make it into the final 16 of the competition, Daniel has been speaking to some of them and the interviews are really great. You really should listen to them. Tons of advice, insights, and motivation for your learning of English and just some really great people to listen to.

4:58 Who has Daniel spoken to?

Who is he spoken to? Which lips does, has he spoken to, and let me just check. I think the first one that Daniel spoke to was Hamad from Pakistan. Who's got some really cool things to say. You got to check out handmade. He's brilliant. Also listen to episode 84 of my fluent podcasts, or should I call, should I call it Daniel's fluent podcasts, um, which was with Alvara hu from Spain, from Madrid.

5:25 Alvaro overcame his stuttering

Who was a fascinating person to listen to all about how he overcame his stuttering. Stuttering is a kind of a, how do I describe it? It's a, it's something that affects the way you speak and it can cause people to sort of, sort of repeat certain syllables and causes them problems in getting the words out, um, a stutter.

So Alvara. Has a stutter, but he overcame it and also has learned English to a good degree and lived in, in, I think in Scotland or Ireland.

5:56 The Ricky Sendy Show

Uh, but anyway, very interesting conversation also, you must listen to episode 86, which is the Ricky Sandy show. And that's Ricardo from Spain. Do you remember the funny recording that Ricardo sent to me on that point, actually listeners, another thing I must say, Ricardo recorded a full length Ricky Sandy show.
And it's it's up on YouTube. I put it on a listener's page on my website. Um, teacherluke.co.uk.
