Description

Discussing our transition from YouTube to join the larger podcast community.  


Going forward, all future episodes will be uploaded to YouTube and all the podcast networks.  


Our strategy and why we're focused on English phrases so far, with a unique Russian perspective. 


Why we changed out category from "Education" to "How-to/Style" and "Society/Culture".


Tennis error: "A shot that does not land (correctly) in the opponent's court, resulting in the loss of a point."


Baseball error: "Act of a fielder misplaying a ball in a manner that allows a batter to advance one or more bases, or allows an at bat to continue after the batter should have been put out."


"Get ahold of someone." and "Get in touch with someone." vs. "Get a hold on someone." 


When to combine words together, like "falling down stairs" vs. falling downstairs.  (Where did they fall?)


How permanent is something "set in stone" ?


"Don't overdo it." and "Ease up a bit."


"Tone it down."


"You're getting on my nerves."


Triggering someone by "pressing their buttons."


PS: The distance from Spain to the Canary Islands is 1256 miles or 2022 kilometers :-)
