Happy Sunday, everyone!

In today’s episode, I am going to teach you all about the English expression “a sticky situation”!

We are going to break down the expression and I’ll give you “situations” where you can use this expression.

Listen to story about this elk that had been wearing a tyre around its neck for 2 years — ever heard of the phrase “put your head in a noose”?

I am also going to answer a question from IG user mrezaheidariy. He asks how to ask a girl out on a date when you’ve just met her.

And finally, don’t forget to do the Listening Comprehension Exercise at the end of this episode!

Today’s clip is from the amazing movie Ali’s Wedding – this is one of the best movies about modern-day Australia and its migrant culture.
