Michael Lavers
About this episode

Lindsay McMahon is the cohost of the All Ears English Podcast and I was delighted when she agreed to join me for a chat about our own cultures! 

In this episode, we compare British and American cultures. We also talk about...

  • Why Lindsay started podcasting
  • Lindsay's experience with other languages
  • Podcasts helping you learn languages
  • Passive listening
  • Having dreams in your second language
  • What is rude and polite in our cultures
  • Complimenting strangers
  • Work culture
  • And more!


*As we spoke about in the podcast, you cannot legally work more than 48 hours a week in the UK on average (source)
