      Hello, Luke. my name is Joel and I'm from Rio de Janeiro Brazil. I just study your lesson and actually shared your TH-cam Channel Video everyday. I think you are really a fantastic teacher. I wish success in this important enterprise. A big hug. See you later.

    I really enjoyed watching this episode. I've been listening to your podcasts for more than one year. I'm passionate about English language and adore the British accent. It's my favourite. I'm an English teacher and I feel different and unique with my British accent.

    Turkish here. There are closet toilets and classic toilets in modern houses. The classic toilet is more hygienic, healthier, and most importantly, it does not freeze your region in winter. And we don't call it Turkish toilet

    Also in Italy we call it Turkish toilet. It used to be popular until the fifties I guess. I saw one recently in the courtyard of an old public housing and still used as a café's toilet. It is actually quite hygenic because only your feet touch the toilet. It also puts you in what doctors call an anatomically correct position =)

    Yesterday I had a really funny conversation. I told a friend about some words from the Podcast and the friend did'nt believe me, you don't say "Downtown" in british English. The argument was the series "Downtown Abbey" is set in Britain. :D
    I had to laugh so hard.

    Either way, thank you very much for this very helpful and pleasant conversation 👋
