Quick Hello / OPP / Living Through Comedy / Somewhere Else Dreamin’

<p>Quick Hello / OPP / Living Through Comedy / Somewhere Else Dreamin’</p> <p>Just a quick "hello" to let you know about some other things you could listen to this month, including my appearances on some other people's podcasts.</p> <p>Transcript & Links</p> <p>Hello folks, how are you doing? How’s your English coming along?</p> <p>This is not a full episode, more of an update and a chance to tell you about some things you could listen to, specifically a couple of appearances I made on other people’s podcasts recently.</p> <p>I’ve been preparing lots of premium episodes for this month. I’m halfway through series 13. Parts 1 and 2 of this series have been published and they deal with lots of expressions with prepositions, specifically prepositions of place and movement combined with little verbs like get. As usual there are tests and pronunciation drills. Parts 3 and 4 will arrive this week.</p> <p>If you want to hear all the premium stuff, get the LEP App from the app store then go to <a href= "http://www.teacherluke.co.uk/premium">www.teacherluke.co.uk/premium</a> to sign up and get started, use your details to sign into the app to access the premium content. PDF worksheets are all available too.</p> <p>Other People’s Podcasts</p> <p>Now then, if you’re looking for stuff to listen to other than the podcast episodes in the archive and the premium content, here are a couple of things you could listen to in the meantime. Here are my recent appearances on other people’s podcasts.</p> <p>1. I was interviewed on my brother’s podcast. It’s called Living Through Comedy and it’s all about my time as a comedian, including how I got into stand up, what my influences were, my experience of developing my act and also some stories of good and bad gigs.</p> <p>There are several other episodes of Living Through Comedy too that you might like. Both feature conversations about comedy, doing stand up and life in general. You should be able to find Living Through Comedy on iTunes, but if you can’t you can listen to it on the page for this episode.</p> <p>You could also visit <a href= "http://www.livingthroughcomedy.libsyn.com">www.livingthroughcomedy.libsyn.com</a> and listen there, on a mobile.</p> <p>So that’s nice. About an hour of conversation between James and me, on his new podcast.</p> <p>2. I was interviewed by Noman Hosni for Somewhere Else Dreamin’, his new YouTube series which is all about interviewing people (comedians usually) about their experiences as an ExPat - that means someone who is living in another country. I suppose it’s a nice way to say “immigrant”. And because I am an immigrant, living here in France and I’ve spent time in Japan too, Noman decided I would be a good person to interview.</p> <p>Noman Hosni is a very funny professional stand up comedian here in France. I interviewed him on the podcast once. He is doing very well as a comedian in France, but he has decided to move to LA in order to pursue his career there. Before going he is working on his English and also finding out about people’s experiences of moving to different countries.</p> <p>I love hanging out with Noman and in this interview I tell a few stories including the time I got sick in Japan (which I spoke about in a podcast a few years ago) and my experiences of English teaching and moving to France. Check it out!</p> <p>It’s available on YouTube “somewhere else dreamin luke thompson” and embedded on the website here, but also it’s on Spotify in audio format. It’s a YouTube video and you’ll see me and Noman talking, but Spotify has the audio version.</p> <p><a href= "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwI0OeixLoo">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwI0OeixLoo</a> </p> <p>I’m doing a lot of premium content this month, but I also have some free episodes in the pipeline including some more stuff about British comedy and an episode about Queen, the rock band, which has been requested many times by listeners, so it’s nice to finally be getting around to talking about Queen on the podcast after 600 episodes. There are still many more topics and things to talk about on this podcast.</p> <p>:)</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
