    Getting Sidetracked. EP 187
    Sep 15 2026
    English from all angles! We pick up where we left off with rear-wheel-drive and front-wheel-drive cars - and the story of Drew’s parents’ 1982 Honda Civic and BMW 530. Drew gets sidetracked (again!), so he doesn’t discuss the verb “to be” in as much depth as planned. But you’ll learn the useful expression “to get sidetracked,” meaning to become distracted from what you were originally doing or talking about. And yes, we eventually return to the verb “to be” - sort of. In this episode, you’ll learn how sandbags - and “sandbagging” - can “solve” problems, whether you’re driving on snow or creating a sales budget. You’ll also learn the expression “to gain traction,” as in, “His idea is gaining traction.”

    To Be, or Not to Be: It's Your Choice. EP 186
    Sep 8 2026
    English from all angles! Mastering the verb “to be” is a cinch, isn’t it? Well, not necessarily. Don’t underestimate the power of using the verb “to be” effortlessly and accurately - and, conversely, the negative impression created when it’s used incorrectly. BTW, what does “it’s a cinch” mean? Tune in and find out! In this episode, Drew was going to discuss the verb “to be” and the importance of knowing it backwards and forwards, but then something happened…Learn the difference between “supposed to” and “supposedly,” and the expression “catch my drift.”

    The Real Thing. EP 185
    Sep 2 2026
    English from all angles! If it’s genuine, it’s the real thing. Like Levi’s. If it’s authentic, it’s original. Like Chicago deep-dish pizza. You agree, don’t you? How quickly can you recognize the English letters? In this episode apply the trick and test yourself! Also - more pronunciation tips. Is it genuine? Is it authentic? Is it vintage? Or is it false, counterfeit or artificial? Tune in and decide for yourself. Also in this episode: Question Tags! P.S. Never put ketchup on a Chicago-style hot dog.
