though it's like

this can you believe this is even real a

toast sandwich

[Music]

what is a toast is a British invention

what is in there it's a toast and a

toast a piece of toast inside an

untoasted toast

bread well just got oh yeah I want to

show you this cuz this is great and this

is something that everyone should know

because there are many types of in

English

how many of you how many of you ever

used I know you've used the bottom one

like something is the that's the no did

I say that I hope not no no obviously

holy sh

maybe obviously

oh that b Shen r

I definitely have used do a lot but for

the real

thing dip tough tough tough tough it's

tough yeah Jack

Jack

interesting I'm still learning here as

well it's kind of true no

that's sad is it this I got for you

because you feel differently about this

I love sumon England I don't want to be

anywhere else but look we're basking in

German heat but because this is autumn

in Germany true that is true

mid of September yeah and it's warm now

and it's getting in warmer the next days

which is nice actually in England it's

too it's also warm there now oh yeah in

the south of England we also have 24° at

the sea now there yeah missing home it's

a bit of a myth isn't

it well at least we say that living in

Brighton I think Brighton is the

sunniest place in the UK I've read

somewhere so this I think we have said

it a lot of times in the podcast The

Stereotype that it only Reigns in

England is not true at least for parts

of England if you come from a city in

Germany like Minster where I'm from it

does rain a hell lot more than where we

live in England and that's why annoys

you though cuz when we come here and if

it starts the rain and we see the

neighbors they will say oh look you

brought the typical British weather yeah

now we come from sunshine

to you have no idea and every time we

come here the weather changes here to

rain so in the in the way we bring the

weather but we come from Sunshine yeah

we've brought this yeah our podcast is

all about UK culture

and we're on our 50th episode so why

don't we make a good positive about cuz

we're not in England at the moment what

is the thing that you're missing name

them top three things that you miss

about Eng

everything the nature yeah the Green

Hills I mean we're lucky with the Sea

and the Green Hills the the nature there

feels free free for everyone free to go

into free green

nature

um the okay is that number three or

number one can we not rank them just m

three

nature the pops and the good music that

you hear in the Pops I knew you're going

to say pops no but it's more about the

music as well because we have pops here

too but um that you go into pop and it's

always good music

on and the coziness of the pups yeah

especially now that Aus approaching all

fires and stuff yeah but we come back

for that we do and the people but that

is the general feeling being there that

is sounds a bit spiritual but there is a

spirit

of British people yeah especially in

Brighton it's just everything feels so

homey nice friendly not every we

encounter and how does it compare to

German people

oh no no nothing against Germans but

well I'm myself German but um a lot of

people here where we are now we saw the

last days mhm pretty rude way too direct

maybe I just turned being more

bridg but yeah maybe super direct

complaining about everything although

that's also a bit of a British thing I

would say at least about the weather but

not directness not direct no and a so

hold on

wait you said

nature PBS people yeah mine would also

probably be that but in some other some

other order it's what I miss what do you

miss

most I want to say pubs but because this

is being filmed I'll say

people although German beer is a good

equivalent yeah that's true yeah I'm I'm

happy sometimes to have an a range of

good

pillers which is nice I like English

Beer as well but the beer here for my

liking there's more Choice yeah I think

Brits don't really know about beer now I

think about it oh God I really don't

because I think a lot of things we've

had a few things which have been called

pillers but they're not yeah that's not

true no and a few things called h Spears

and they're just not he it's all just

laga basically and then you you'd be you

at first glance you'd feel kind of

convinced like wow look at all these

amazing range of beers in this one Pub

all these ipas they must all have

wonderful different tastes but nine

times out of 10 they all taste like

mango yeah and it's all just the same

old

rubbish now what you imagining just a

pigeon walking over to us hopefully

there's been some like stuff happening

behind us whil we've been talking like

squrs dragons

flying

dinosaurs uh Eagles yeah okay so there

you go there's uh episode 50 all a bit

lastminute.com we had something else bit

we actually plann to do a really cool

episode in berin with easy languages

friends friends and family but we we do

something similar soon maybe more

virtually yeah for episode 100 in two

more years time I think before but um

yeah so this is

our emergency solution yeah we hope you

like been nice it was sunny there was

Apples

sprits I had fun I think we should do

this again and we should do it in the

various pubs that we go to around

Brighton and record that yeah that would

be good and get that atmosphere of like

pubby atmosphere people having fun

timeby atmosphere good drinks good music

nice people nice

nature uh and for those of you listening

we're really sorry because you must have

been like what the hell are they talking

about but if you go onto YouTube you'll

be well aware that we've been reacting

to some memes some clips so it does not

work on audio

but why would you only listen when you

can now watch so go on to YouTube I have

what so yeah go become a video member

and get the interactive transcript for

this episode that you can watch listen

and read along to to help you improve

your English

  ➔ Noun phrases as modifiers (e.g., 'big day', 'easy English podcast')

  ➔ Using nouns to describe other nouns creates concise and descriptive phrases. 'Big' modifies 'day', and 'easy English' modifies 'podcast'.

• so for those of you who are actually listening you should uh head over to YouTube

  ➔ Relative clauses ('those of you who are actually listening')

  ➔ The phrase 'those of you who are actually listening' identifies a specific group of people. The relative clause 'who are actually listening' provides additional information about 'those'.

• you can by becoming a video member for this episode get all the perks of the podcast membership

  ➔ Gerund as a subject complement ('by becoming')

  ➔ "By becoming" functions as a way of achieving the action of 'get'. It explains *how* you can get the perks.

  ➔ Defining relative clause ('which is the bit that happens...')

  ➔ The relative clause 'which is the bit that happens after this public episode' *defines* what the 'after show' is. It's essential to understanding the meaning.

  ➔ Past perfect continuous (implied) - 'had trolled' to show an action completed before another in the past.

  ➔ While 'trolled' is in the simple past, the context suggests a prolonged search. 'I had trolled' would be more grammatically precise, indicating the search was completed *before* finding the memes.
