This is an All-Ears-English bonus episode, How He Toko added natural expressions to her English in Tokyo.

Welcome to the All-Ears-English podcast podcast downloaded more than 50 million times

we believe in Connection Not Perfection with your American hosts Lindsay McMahon,

the English adventurer, and Michelle Kaplan, the New York

Radio Girl, coming to you from Boston and New York City, USA. And to get your transcripts delivered by email every week go to all ears English

Today you'll meet Hitoko who participated in the Power Immersion English weekend in Japan last year.

She'll tell us how she learned new idioms and expressions during the weekend that she still uses in English today. Whether it's an under the radar genre or a proper out-there podcast, sometimes it's

better when you get weird, especially when it comes to switching up your soft drink

introducing new Dr Pepper Zero.

With the same blend of 23 unique flavors,

it tastes just as weird as regular Dr Pepper but with zero sugar and zero calories.

It's a taste you can't quite put your finger on.

Weird, but in a surprisingly good way, try more weird with Dr Pepper Zero.

Hello He Tocco, welcome to the Allers English podcast.

Hello, Lindsay.

Nice to see you again.

Hey, I'm so happy to have you on the show and it's so nice to chat with you here on Skype and we haven't

spoken since the event last year in Tokyo.

Yes, I miss you so much, but I've been listening to your podcast every day, almost every day.

That's amazing.

I'm so glad you're still listening to the show.
