Train Etiquette ๐Ÿš„ #342

Author: Martin Johnston October 7, 2024 Duration: 26:11

Men sitting on trains with their legs WIDE open (so that no-one else can sit next to them), plus people playing music on their phones and of course... what we think of train toilets! All on this week's episode, so get the headphones on and just keeeeeeeeep on ROCKin', baby!ย

Martin Johnston hosts Rock n' Roll English, a podcast that feels more like hanging out backstage than sitting in a classroom. Each episode is built around candid, often hilarious conversations with friends, where the topics naturally drift toward life's louder edges-think music, culture, and the stories you don't find in standard textbooks. The whole idea is to absorb the rhythm and slang of everyday English by hearing it used in real, unfiltered chat. You'll pick up vocabulary and grasp grammar intuitively from context, all wrapped in the spirit of rock and roll. Itโ€™s an education, but one filled with laughter and genuine curiosity, where learning happens because you're simply engaged in the conversation. This isn't a formal lesson; it's about catching the nuances of the language while listening to people talk about what actually interests them. Tune in to this uniquely energetic podcast for a dose of comedy and learning thatโ€™s as unpredictable as it is useful. Just keep on rockin'.
