Hey, Trevor and Chad, what’s up!
Very good podcast. Thanks for sharing a little bit about Australia and the Australians, and of course, keep up the good work!
Cheers!
THE PODCAST IS VERY GOOD, BUT THE SOUND IS OSCILLATING AND FAILING IN SOME PARTS.
Thanks for your feedback! Could you give us some examples of where this happened? Thanks!
Sorry! I think the problem was with the browser Mozilla Firefox, I opened the podcast in Google Chrome and did not have the problems that occurred in Firefox.
ohh nooo, I can not open it! how poor I am!
Ohh nooo I can not open it, how poor I am!
Very useful as always 🙂
Thank you for making the podcast and thank you for sharing 🙂
its v good podcast …
That's such a wicked podcast!
Thanks Jeferson! :^)
I really liked it! Enjoyable and interesting, thanks.
The podcast about things you miss about USA is long and with long sentences. There are many unknown words. The pronunciation is a little bit difficult to unsderstand because you are native speakers. I only lost myself in the part that you talk about the charger that Josh brought because there are words that aren’t on the transcript. Do me a favor: check it fort me.
In the podcast about Australia the pronunciation is clearest, there are less unknown words.
In the podcast about England Charlie’s pronunciation is difficult to understand because he speaks fast and speaks British English. He said that he sometimes has black pudding which is congealed pigs blood, obviously toast in breakfast and he wash it with milk. Does he eat ( in Portuguese: sangue de porco congelado, tostado e depois lavado com leite?) isn’t it?
Thank you for everything and a hug
