Gracias Mouna, Marius y Hamed. Muchas gracias, it’s wonderful to hear from people in such far away places.
These podcasts are not new to me as I subscribed to Gold one and two. However, seeing the podcasts here has encouraged me to relisten. I loved receiving them weekly but fell behind when listening. The worksheets and links to related material are very useful. Some of the podcasts were on themes which did not appeal, but they always contained useful phrases and vocabulary.
Ben and Marina have lively, funny and affectionate conversations.
however I particularly liked conversations with a member of Marina’s family about a historical event and one with a South American friend involving a different accent and phrases. Yes I can remember the identities of the other people and the subjects but don’t want to spoil the suprise.
Thanks Pat, it’s great to hear that you are enjoying them again second time around!
