Today's episode is all about love; the reality TV show Love is Blind; how the concept works, if it is successful and how it is good for learning English. Isi also has three phrases all about love from the medieval ages and from French nobility. Lastly, Samuel asks us a question about improving their English and we announce our NEW Wednesday afternoon conversation classes.
