Things we're addicted to

6m · English Conversation Club podcast · 10 Mar 09:00

In this episode, Fluency Club Leader Cara and I talk about: 

  • addiction to email, and how we manage it
  • why addiction to email & social media is like addiction to drugs & alcohol
  • tips for managing email "emergencies" from colleagues & clients

The extra mile (useful English vocabulary you'll hear in the podcast): 

  • to get addicting = to become addicting. Ex. Email can get addicting. = Email can become addicting
  • the hassle = a situation that is annoying because it involves doing something difficult or complicated that needs a lot of effort
  • to get cracked out = to become extremely tired and mentally dazed due to excessive consumption of something that is addictive
