Welcome to the listening Time podcast.
Hey everybody, this is Connor and you're listening to episode 133 of the listening Time podcast.
I hope you're all doing excellent and I want to wish you a merry Christmas around this time when this episode is released.
I think Christmas will be in about a week, if I'm not mistaken, and that's actually the topic of today's episode.
We're going to talk about Christmas and specifically what Christmas is like in the US.
I'm sure that a lot of you are interested in this topic.
This is a really big deal in the US.
The Christmas season is really important and it's very unique in this country, so I'm happy to talk about that today.
I'm sure I've mentioned certain aspects about Christmas in other episodes, but I wanted to do a full episode dedicated to this topic today, so hopefully it will be interesting and educational for you.
And before we start, remember that if you need my help to understand native speakers when they speak fast, then make sure to join my membership so you can access my listening practice seminars where I help you understand the real sounds of English when people speak at normal speed.
