Hello folks, Luke's English podcast is sponsored by I-talkie, a service that you can use to get English lessons or conversation practice with actual people, real people, some of them English people, British people or American people,

Australian people, Native English speakers basically, some of them are just people who speak English and you can talk to them and

there will be friendly and talk to you too and they're cheaper than the qualified

teachers who can provide you with more structured lessons, feedback, grammar

vocabulary pronunciation work, maybe help be prepared for a Cambridge exam or a job interview.

It's a network that's being used by many many many people all around the world to learn lots of different languages and stuff like that.

Check out I-talkie and that can help.

Actual, I mean listening to this podcast is good.

Great, right?

When you're on the bus and train and stuff, you're listening.

English, oh, brilliant, oh, listening to English.

Oh, that obviously, that's, those are the noises that you make when you're listening to this part.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, English, great.

That's all good, but if you're serious, it's really worth taking some time to organize some lessons with people,

with you know, actually practice speaking and you can do that with I-talkie.

And remember, because you listen to this podcast,

I talkie will send you a voucher worth a free lesson

when you buy some talking time, not bad.

Hello folks how you doing I hope you're doing all right so I'm going to just speak like this at the beginning of the episode. My intonation tone is rising for no reason, I don't know why.

And now it's starting to come back down again as we just settle in to this new episode of Luke's English podcast and you might be able to hear the sounds of my dishwasher in the background.
