E62 The Art of Disappointing People - Advanced Listening Practice for English Students
Update: 2025-11-09
Description
We all do it: promise too much, deliver too late, and thus fail to meet someone’s expectations.
In this Advanced level conversation, Oliver and César explore disappointment, guilt, and the strange pressure to meet other people's standards. From over-promising at work to letting friends down, we reflect on why we care more about strangers’ opinions than our loved ones’, and what it really means to “lower the bar.”
