On Big Lives, we take a single cultural icon.
People like Jane Fonda, George Michael, Little Richard.
And we pull apart the story behind the image.
And we do this by digging through the BBC's vast archives.
Discovering forgotten interviews that change exactly how we see these giants of our culture.
We're here for the messy, the brilliant, the human version of our heroes.
I'm Emmanuel Jochi.
I'm Kai Wright.
And this is Big Lives.
Listen to Big Lives wherever you get your podcasts.
Hello, I'm Georgie, an English teacher and presenter at BBC Learning English.
I want to tell you about a new series I've made all about speaking.
Beating speaking anxiety helps you fight your fears of speaking English.
Each video tackles a different fear,
like the fear of making mistakes, the fear of not understanding people,
and the fear of public speaking.
