About Deep Talk: Advanced English Discussions with Rhiannon ELT
Deep Talk is a podcast for Advanced English learners who want to go deeper and explore the topics and ideas that really fascinate them.
No more "English learning" podcasts on boring topics you've heard talked about a million times before!
No, in Deep Talk, we're going to confront:
- Death and dying
- LGBT rights
- Re-writing (and re-playing) history
- Witchcraft
- Exercise and menstrual cycles
- The dark side of being an IG Language Teacher
You'll find the links to the article or video being discussed in the episode descriptions so that you can join in the conversation!

Today I’m joined by Cara to talk all about movies and specifically why more and more people, native English speakers included, are finding they need to turn on the subtitles when they’re watching them!
Cara Leopold is the creator of the Leo Listening Movie Club where she helps film-loving English learners understand and discuss movies together so they can master conversational English.
From September 13th-20th 2023, Cara is organising the Back-to-School Movie Challenge, a 1-week taste of what it's like to be in a movie club. By watching and discussing clips from high school movies together, you’ll learn new vocabulary, catch fast-spoken English and practise your speaking and writing skills with other movie-loving English learners. The challenge includes access to a discussion forum as well as a live Zoom session on September 20th to chat with her and other film lovers about the movie clips.

#32 How tattoos and music festivals have built my self-confidence
Today I'm joined by Nora (https://www.instagram.com/nora.business.english/?hl=en), business communication genius and tattoo and festival lover!
She shares with us how tattoos (she has either 19.5 or 20.5!) helped her learn to love her body and music festivals are her way of letting herself have fun after many years of denying herself it.
It's a surprisingly deep conversation and an absolute honour to have been part of - my thanks to Nora!
Nora's Masterclass, Effortless English Emails (https://norabusinessenglish.getlearnworlds.com/effortless-english-emails), is taking place on August 10th 2023 (but available afterwards as a recording) and looks to be EVERYTHING you need to conquer effective professional email communication.

Today I’m joined by Clare to talk about her life of music. In this conversation, Clare shares her experience growing up in a highly musical household, her classical training and later love affair with folk music, how music has taken her around the world and introduced her to new people, and the power of music to bring people together.
Clare is also an English teacher, she has a website where you can find lots of free resources to help you on your language journey:
www.expressyourselfinenglish.com (http://www.expressyourselfinenglish.com)
Also, here are some links Clare has provided for music that she plays and recommends:
I play in a duet Broch Inspectors (violin/tenor guitar/voice). Mainly instrumental music of Ireland and Scotland, and we're currently doing a tune a day -
