A friend of mine (and this podcast) Mark features in this episode. Basically I came up with this silly concept of asking Mark mad questions about his roommates in order to use a lot of idioms related to war and weapons.  I do not explain the idioms in this episode, but there is a follow-up mini lesson for patrons which does the job.  ____________________________________________________________________________________ ?

Zdenek's English Podcast

Episode 391 - In War with Roomates

In this episode, I talk to Monika, a professional driver and a listener to this podcast, about her experiences driving and life in general and along the way I throw in idioms which contain the word "drive" and "ride". Note that there is no mini lesson for patrons related to this episode.  ____________________________________________________________________________________ ?

Episode 390 - Ride and Drive Idioms

Michael, who has been on this podcast before to talk Dungeons and Dragons (episode 372), has decided to take a CELTA. What's that, I hear you asking? CELTA stands for the "Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages", and it's essentially a well-known qualification for English teachers. I had taken this exam myself a while back and recorded a series of episodes about it (episodes 125-128). How did Michael do? Did he enjoy the course? Did he find it challenging? What were the things he learnt? Was there anything he wasn't keen on? What grade did Michael get in the end? And how does our experience compare? Listen to this episode to find out.  If you like Zdenek's English Podcast, why not become a patron to support me and get a mini lesson (extra podcast) which focuses on selected target language from regular episodes, including this one? You could also just share this podcast with your friends or write a review on Apple Podcasts. Every little helps. Thank you very much.   ____________________________________________________________________________________ ?

Episode 389 - Taking the CELTA course with Michael

Episode 388 features none other than the well-known online English teacher Emma. We have a chat about her projects Pronunciation with Emma and The Procrastination Podcast. We delve into the world of pronunciation, we explore what British people say and what they really mean, and we learn about Emma’s favourite games.  Emma is a good laugh, and just like me, enjoys a bit of chaos while recording podcasts, which shows in this episode.  There is the video version of the podcast: https://youtu.be/LPhlyMInd0E ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Here is where you can follow Emma: ?Emma’s Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pronunciationwithemma/ ?Emma’s YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/pronunciationwithemma ?Emma’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pronunciationwithemma/ ?Emma’s Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/procrastinationwithemma ?Emma’s Podcast: “The Procrastination Podcast”   ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ?

Episode 388 - Chatting Away with Emma from Pronunciation with Emma

Sometimes things happen, and I don't have a guest for the live show. Usually I try to improvise when that happens. Sometimes it ends up being weird, sometimes it's weirdly alright, sometimes it's nothing special. This time, it's....ehm. You will have to see for yourself. And I definitely recommend taking the whole thing with a pinch of salt.  ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ?

Message for Listeners

A short message explaining what has happened and why there is no Zdenek's English Podcast episode this week.

I Can‘t Publish an Episode this Week

Musa, a former colleague of mine from Speak Up London language school, is back on the podcast. This time we mostly talk about his Friday Drinks event.  There is an absolutely insane mini lesson for patrons as well, so brace yourselves for that! And when I say insane, it is actually insane.  ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ?

Episode 386 - Musa‘s Friday Drinks

To learn more about the topic of "language exchange" I invited Maria who is going to tell us about her "thing" - the thing stands for the project where she helps people learn Spanish and English through, you guessed it, language exchange.

Episode 385 - Language Exchange

My name is Zdenek and I am a qualified English teacher from the Czech Republic. Back in 2013 I started this podcast to help myself achieve C2 level in speaking. Over the years, it has grown in popularity and now has its appreciative audience. On the podcast I often interview interesting people that I meet (often English native speakers), and talk about subjects that relate to my life. Sometimes I teach language, too. So buckle up and come along for the ride.
