Extract:

Hello, everyone, and welcome again to another Teacher Joseph podcast.

Today, the phrase we have is “to be fed up”. To be fed up, and it basically means to be bored or to be mentally tired of a particular situation. Now, it can also mean a little bit depressed.
So for example, you might hear your friends say:
Oh, I’m really fed up of this job, I’ve been doing it now for 10 years.
I’m fed up of my boss’s behaviour. He always acts inappropriately.
Today, I feel really fed up. It’s wet outside and I don’t have very much to do.
To be fed up. A synonym of bored or perhaps even to be depressed.

Pints of Wine (with transcript)

Listen to the most recent episode of my podcast: #748 Pints of Wine (with transcript) https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/joseph-mc42/episodes/748-Pints-of-Wine-with-transcript-e2j6q1u

Transcript: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1s9FlLsMihQwiRdgsN4A2pXyw_32R3JxLKgLopkLY-Ow/edit?usp=drivesdk

Extract: Well, there’s a story in one of our newspapers today. This is from the Daily Mirror and it’s saying that pints of wine will be on sale from this coming Autumn. Now, you may remember a few months ago, I told you about this….that pint size glasses and bottles of wine were to be made available in the UK. And of course, as a nation, we don’t really taste things. We just drink in volumes because we, we don’t really have an appreciation you know…. we don’t taste the wine and say

“Oh delicious, dry, sweet,,,, would be nice with fish”.

No…. we just drink to get drunk so it’s no surprise then that we would want wine by the pint rather than appreciating the delicacy and beauty of the drink. So we’re going to go through this story and we’ll be talking about it as we go.
