I love the host’s voice
Why there are so many interruptions ?

lerika.valeria

If the podcast lasts 6 minutes why should it be interrupted 4 times to tell that we are listening this podcast? Ir is annoying and irritating! The given information is good, but there should be less publicity.

Very useful to improve grammar or simply to brush up on it. 6 minutes... it takes you not a long time to do it and even if after a certain period you risk listening again to some topics, don’t you forget: repetita iuvant!!
