E69 What AI Is Doing to Our Attention - Practise Your Advanced English With This Angry Rant!

Saison 1 · Épisode 69

samedi 17 janvier 2026 • Durée 25:38

Are social networks and their new best friend, artificial intelligence, destroying our attention spans? In this episode, we examine how AI-generated content, endless scrolling, and algorithm-driven platforms are changing the way we focus, learn, and consume information online. We discuss fake influencers, their low-effort “educational” content, and why depth, effort, and long-form thinking are becoming harder - and hopefully more valuable - in the age of AI.

E60 Has Mindfulness Lost Its Mind? - Advanced English Listening (C1/C2)

Saison 1 · Épisode 60

dimanche 26 octobre 2025 • Durée 20:32

After a period where every small problem felt catastrophic, and he was encouraged to be more "mindful", Oliver asks how and why this radical idea about awareness became yet another lifestyle brand. In this conversation, he and César unpack how a practice meant to help us face discomfort ended up being sold as the cure for it.

E59 Do Europeans Even *Like* Each Other? (feat. French Mornings with Elisa)

Saison 1 · Épisode 59

vendredi 17 octobre 2025 • Durée 30:17

What does it really mean to be European? Shared values, a shared history… or just a shared habit of thinking our neighbours are doing everything wrong?

In this episode, we are joined by Elisa from French Mornings with Elisa (https://www.frenchmornings.com/) to talk about the strange mix of rivalry and affection that unites the continent. We compare British, French and Spanish attitudes to each other, Erasmus memories, Brexit, national clichés, and even which country gets blamed when things go wrong.

E58 Teachers We’ll Never Forget - Advanced English Listening (C1/C2)

Saison 1 · Épisode 58

dimanche 12 octobre 2025 • Durée 20:17

Most of us remember a teacher - and not always for positives reasons.

Maybe they inspired us. Maybe they embarrassed us. Maybe they simply showed up every day and did their job without ever realising how much it mattered to us.

In this episode of English and Beyond, Oliver and César reflect on the people who taught them and left a big impression. They share stories of teachers who left a mark, both good and bad, and explore how those small, unspoken moments in education can shape who we become.

E57 Perfectly Miserable: The Culture of Optimisation - Advanced English Listening

Saison 1 · Épisode 57

jeudi 2 octobre 2025 • Durée 17:37

Are we becoming obsessed with optimisation?

From Greek philosophy to Apple Watches, the idea of “the good life” has shifted from balance and virtue to data, tracking, and biohacking.

In this episode of English and Beyond (Advanced), Oliver and César explore the culture of self-optimisation - from sleep divorces to clean eating, from supplements to billionaire blood transfusions.

You’ll hear natural British English conversation on:

Where “healthy living” becomes obsessive control;
Why sleep tracking, diets, and fitness apps can be both useful and harmful; and
Whether we’re chasing perfection or just trying to survive adulthood.

E56 "First Love Never Dies" - Advanced English Listening Practice

Saison 1 · Épisode 56

vendredi 26 septembre 2025 • Durée 19:27

They say you never forget your first love. And maybe that’s true - not because it was perfect, but because it carried an intensity that later relationships rarely match. Years later, a song, a name, or a face in a crowd can bring the memory back, fresh and overwhelming.

In this episode, we talk about first crushes, awkward kisses, and secret teenage romances. Some stories are sweet, others bittersweet, but all of them remind us how powerful those early feelings can be - and how they stay with us, even when everything else has moved on.

Listen in for reflections on:

Why first love often feels more vivid than later relationships
How memory reshapes our earliest experiences of desire and disappointment
The sweet, sometimes innocent intensity of loving for the very first time

E55 The End of Language Learning - Advanced English Listening Practice

Saison 1 · Épisode 55

vendredi 19 septembre 2025 • Durée 19:51

When AI can podcast, teach and even translate in real time, what’s left for us humans?

In this episode of English and Beyond: Advanced English Podcast, Oliver and César discuss the promises and threats of Artificial Intelligence. From Apple’s new live-translation AirPods to AI-generated podcasts on YouTube, they ask hard and sometimes depressing questions about the future of education, creativity, and work!

Will teachers and podcasters (and lawyers) become redundant? Could AI replace not only routine jobs but also creative voices? Or will this technology simply shift what we value as “uniquely human”?

Along the way, they reflect on history, from the Industrial Revolution to today, and explore how people adapt when technology changes everything.

Listen in for a frank conversation about fear and opportunity - and decide for yourself whether AI is a threat, a tool, or perhaps both.

E54 Do We Love Our Pets Too Much? - Advanced English Listening Practice

Saison 1 · Épisode 54

vendredi 12 septembre 2025 • Durée 19:33

Why are humans so devoted to pets?

We spend billions on them, treat them like family, and grieve their loss as deeply as we would a relative. But they’re not human. They don’t share our language or our culture, and their lives are heartbreakingly short. So why do we choose to invite animals into our homes - knowing from the beginning that the story will end in loss?

In this episode of English and Beyond, Oliver and César explore the paradox of pet ownership. We look at the history of pets, cultural differences in attitudes to animals, and the challenges - financial, practical, and emotional - of living with them. Along the way, we share personal stories of beloved cats and dogs, and reflect on why the bond between humans and animals is so powerful.

Perfect for advanced English learners, this episode combines natural conversation with cultural insight, giving you the language to talk about pets, companionship, and loss in English.

E53 Why Do Compliments Feel So Awkward? - Advanced English Listening

Saison 1 · Épisode 53

vendredi 5 septembre 2025 • Durée 19:55

Why do compliments so often make us cringe? In this advanced English podcast episode, we explore the psychology of praise and the language of compliments: why a simple “you look nice today” can trigger self-doubt, suspicion, or even discomfort.

You’ll discover how cultural differences shape the way compliments are given and received in English, why flattery can sometimes feel manipulative, and how a “backhanded compliment” works. We’ll also look at natural phrases and advanced vocabulary you can use when giving or responding to compliments in English.

This episode is designed for advanced English learners who want to improve their listening comprehension, expand their vocabulary, and understand the subtleties of English communication.
