“Полезно, т.к. есть как часть с разговором, так и часть с объяснением, где разжевываются идиоматические выражения и грамматика. Сами темы к обсуждению очень разные, с использованием лексики из разных областей. Рекомендую.”

“Not being an expert listener I thought this would be a good podcast to sharpen my listening skills, but I find the idea of a "conversation" where all the characters in the scenario are spoken by one voice is too confusing for me. It is a shame since the quality and subject matter are fine.”Read full review »
