British vs American
Lindsay McMahon is the cohost of the All Ears English Podcast and I was delighted when she agreed to join me for a chat about our own cultures!
In this episode, we compare British and American cultures. We also talk about…
- Why Lindsay started podcasting
- Lindsay’s experience with other languages
- Podcasts helping you learn languages
- Passive listening
- Having dreams in your second language
- What is rude and polite in our cultures
- Complimenting strangers
- Work culture
- And more!
*As we spoke about in the podcast, you cannot legally work more than 48 hours a week in the UK on average (source)
