The Future Of Food
Many of us are trying to be more careful with our food choices, both for our personal health and for the health of the planet in general. But did you know that the food we buy is closely linked to national security? Neil and Pippa discuss this and teach you some new vocabulary.
Saunas
How would you feel about being shut in a small room and heated to a temperature of 80°C? Believe it or not, some people love it! Going to the sauna is a cultural pastime in many countries, but did you know that there might be some health benefits to this hot habit? Neil and Georgie discuss this and teach you some new vocabulary.
Weight Loss Drugs
Weight loss drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro are modified versions of natural hormones which make us feel full when released into the body. Prof Giles Yeo explains how the drugs, which were originally used to treat diabetes, are now being used for weight loss. We also hear about someone's experience of using the drugs. Georgie and Neil teach you some useful vocabulary.
How Do We Adapt To The Cold
Where is the coldest place you have ever been? Did you enjoy the experience? Some people don't seem to mind the cold, whereas other people seem to feel it much more strongly and keep themselves wrapped up in as many layers as possible. But why do we feel it in different ways? Phil and Becca discuss this and teach you some new vocabulary.
Inspiring language learning since 1943
How often do you eat chocolate? It's one of the most loved sweet treats in Europe, but a new EU law could make chocolate more expensive. A business owner, who has small cocoa farms in these places, shares their thoughts and concerns about the new law. We also hear from chocolate lovers about whether they would pay more for their favourite chocolate, and about whether they looked at where their chocolate was produced. Neil and Becca discuss this and teach you some new vocabulary.
