177. What Londoners Say vs What They Mean

This podcast is based on an article from the trendy/hipster website "Buzzfeed". It's about some common things that Londoners say, and what they really mean. It'll not only teach you some vocabulary, but will allow you to get under the skin of London and find out some real inside knowledge of what it's like to live there for real. I'll go through the list and explain everything for you.

175. The Phrasal Verb Chronicles #1

When I've reached 100 phrasal verb episodes, I'll do another episode of The Phrasal Verb Chronicles, to help you remember #51-100.
