Look for a new Halloween episode on the second Sunday in October! And in December, 2025, search "Where does Gary go?" on Youtube for my new show that teaches beginning English to primary-school children!

Episode 67:

Americans love a scary story, and there is plenty of tragedy in the history of some of its towns to promote spirits and phantoms. Where Goyo lives, in Marietta, Georgia, hundreds and hundreds of Union and Rebel bodies lay in the town square, waiting for funerals. Listen to one ghost story based in local folklore about a young married couple doomed to be separated by war.

Este episodio emplea mucho español a lo largo de la narración. Aprenderás conceptos en inglés de Halloween y también un poco de la historia de nuestra Guerra Civil (1861-1865).

Using a brief story about a practical joke (or prank) between employees in an office, Greg demonstrates the use of phrases like "fooling around," "joking around," and "pulling your leg."

Greg will now present one short story per month to teach the English lessons on NoTeRindasPodcast.US. Gabe has a new job and schedule, so he will not be part of the podcast for the foreseeable future. :(
