Be cause It's Thanksgiving time, that wonderful holiday when Americans get together with family and eat a big bird! Fun Mexican word: GUAJOLOTE!! Famous drink: Wild Turkey!

Build the Wall?

(EP 36)America was made by immigrants FOR immigrants. So what FEAR leads to building walls? If this episode sounds heavy, don't worry: there is MUSIC! 🎼 Intro Transcription: Hi everybody! Welcome back to another episode of Unexpected English, your favorite English podcast! Uh-huh! And this one is an unexpected episode because I did not expect to do! At all! That is, I'm only doing it because I heard a song today that I wanted to share with you. And I wanted to share it for a few reasons. One is that it's very easy to understand and.... it's an interesting song with an important message about building walls. Now you may know from that title that it could be related to the current embarrassment in our country. The political embarrassment. I don't want to talk about that! People who know me know how I feel about that particular pathological liar. You know: that fraud, that bully, that sexual predator, that narcissist. So, I won’t. Instead I'll just share this song with you and I hope you like it. So here we go! MUSIC LYRICS: https://genius.com/Anais-mitchell-why-we-build-the-wall-lyrics Like the podcast? Please leave a five star iTunes review. Or at least share it with your friends! That will make me happy, but not as happy as all decent people will be when we finally get rid of that vulgar jackass you-know-who!

(EP 38)We visit San Diego's Little Italy and hear not one but TWO lively interviews with Luca at Civico 1845. Does he have an Italian accent? Of course! Will you understand him? Listen and find out! Because in this episode, I'm only giving the transcript of my introduction. For the interview, you are on your own, but I promise it will be fun! [TRANSCRIPT OF INTRO BELOW] Hi everybody! Wait a minute, let me start again. Hi everybody, and welcome back to another episode of Unexpected English, your favorite English podcast. Ha ha, I know it is... NOT! But that's OK because I'm happy because I have a special, an especially good Italian episode for you. I know you’re thinking, “Wait a minute! I listen to this podcast for English not Italian!” OOO K, OK that's true., but in this episode we're going to Little Italy in San Diego, to one of the best known restaurants there. And I had a quick visit, and I had a lot of fun, and actually I did the interview twice which I normally don't do. And instead of editing the interview, I will just play it for you. I will play both versions for you. And because I'm doing that, and because I'm lazy, and because it's Italian-accented English, I'm not going to do a transcript. So if you're in Italy, I think you can understand what’s said. And anybody else, hey just enjoy it, right? Just have fun because that's why we’re here. OK, here we go! ----> Thanks for sharing with your friends on social, and thanks for following Unexpected English on Spotify, Apple or wherever you do!
