Isi & Mitch
About this episode
A noisy neighbour, an awkward stand-off, an ironic compliment and a round at the bar... 4 difficult scenarios for Isi to deal with in the UK. Interactive Transcript Support Easy English and get interactive transcripts and bonus content for all our episodes: easyenglish.fm/membership Transcript Mitch: [0:22] Hiya, welcome to the Easy English Podcast. Isi, how's it going? Isi: [0:28] It's going. Mitch: [0:29] It's going. Very good. That's a very British response. So today, I wanted to, like in the last video episode, test you on your British cultural knowledge. Isi: [0:42] Oh dear. Mitch: [0:45] So for those of you who are listening, you can also, if you'd like, watch this podcast on YouTube, on our YouTube channel. So head over there to watch us debate some British culture topics. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to propose a scenario to you and maybe give you some options, about what you could possibly do. Or you can... Isi: [1:06] You can only go wrong. Mitch: [1:08] Yeah, exactly. You can volunteer your own response if you like as well. Isi: [1:12] We'll see. That was last time already really good. Mitch: [1:15] Yeah. Yeah, because the answers are maybe not what you might expect. Isi: [1:19] Okay. Mitch: [1:20] Okay. Isi: [1:21] I'm ready.
