Hello and welcome to the English Like A Native podcast.
My name is Anna and you're listening to week 25,
day 4 of Your English Five a Day, the second season.
This is the series that is dedicated to helping you to expand your passive and active vocabulary in order to feel like yourself when communicating in English.
I do most of the work for you.
All you have to do is turn up and listen on a regular basis.
I release episodes every day of the working week from Monday to Friday with an occasional bonus episode at the weekend.
So sit back and relax.
And if you'd like a copy of today's vocabulary or any of the vocabulary from this series,
then you can find it in the vocabulary vault.
This is free to access.
via the link in the show notes.

One evening, he stood on a table and sang off-key, completely making a spectacle of himself.
But he just laughed it off as if nothing happened.
After getting kicked out of the club,
he realised it was time to start from scratch and maybe swap vodka for hand sanitiser.
OK, so let's start with our deep dive, looking at the noun party animal.
