Hello, Luke! I'm an English teacher from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I' m delighted to hear your perfect R.P. English.You are very kind and patient explaining things that are too simple for you. Love it when you chuckle, kind of admitting that a joke is terrible. I guess your work is truly helpful for students of English. I learnt a few things about world culture. Thank you so much! 😊

[@latifaaziza4237]

Why doesn’t everybody speak English like Luke? the world would be so understandable, English learning would be so easy, the people would be eager to learn, so much to thank you Luke and specifically your sense of humor. You were born to be what you are, a great English teacher¡ kissy kissy from Mexico city ❤❤❤❤

I adore joke episodes, I hope you catch more frogs for dissection🐸

[@Staruha91]

Greeks hints at the word “bricks”, so it sounds like “bricks and concrete”. The joke doesn’t work really, but at least now you see what the word “Greeks” was supposed to refer to here.

[@ゆあゆあ-d4d]

A few years ago, I felt you spoke really fast and could't understand your podcast. But now, I can understand and enjoy your podcast very well. I feel improvement of my English skills. Thank you for offering such fun podcasts. I'll keep listening you videos and studying to pass FCE exam.

Hello, dear Luke. I often watch your podcast and enjoy it a lot! I think I get the joke about a penny: two Scotsmen were greedy and started fighting for the penny, which is made of copper and each pulled to his direction until the penny turned to copper wire...😄

[@SerhiiDvornikov]

Thank you so much, dear Luke. The video was very funny. There are several pretty good jokes. For my opinion joke about sound technician is the best

[@ricardorodriguez3444]

Some are funny😂. Great podcast, Luke

[@schiponchik]

About the 38. Czech mate. It also sounds like “шах и мат” in Russian and may be in Czech it sounds the same way. So it seems more deep joke, like it has two levels 😊 «шах и мат» means complete victory. And chess is called «шахматы» in Russian. So this name consists of those two words

[@robertkukuczka9469]

In Polish : Szach i mat. (A complete victory).

[@ekaterinalazareva2922]

Thank you Luke!You always try to make our learning more exciting. Especially I adore your explanations ❤

[@marinakulikowska269]

Russian jokes start with looking over one's shoulder. We went even far since this joke had been created ( assosiation with Stalin KGB times being actual till now). Here is a current one: "You sit down on your cellphone by chance and might get 5 criminal records at once" (for your accidental comments of the power). But we don't complain as we can't!)

[@mariacwiklinska1172]

It’s a great podcast! 🤩Thank you so much, Luke.
