Hi Podcast Club Members – have you finished listening to the Criminal – Money Tree episode? Axton used a lot of expressions and idioms when she was telling her story. Do you know what they mean?🧐 How about testing your knowledge by playing this “Match it” game!

I’ve answered the first one.

Answers will be revealed during our podcast club meeting tomorrow, Thursday at 6:30pm international time😊

Podcast Club Meeting happening in a few minutes! 😉
Happy new week everyone and a belated thank you to everyone who joined the Podcast club meeting last Thursday. The shocking American identity theft story in the podcast “Criminal – Money Tree” led club members to discuss growing cyber crime and fraudulent cases on facebook, whatsapp, telegram and other social media platforms. Sadly this is not just a problem in the US, it is also growing problem in Ethiopia. From our talk last week, I hope, club members that you start reading up about this problem and look for ways to protect yourselves!

If you want to chat more about the podcast and related topics, join the chat group and let’s keep the conversation going - https://t.me/ASEPodcastClub_MembersChatGrp

For now, I’m sharing the answers to last week’s Match It! game. Were your answers correct? How did you do?

Have a great week everyone!

It’s a new week so we’ve got a new podcast. This week let’s talk SUPERHEROES!

The most popular U.S. comic book superheroes we know like Black Panther, Superman and others are owned and published by two main U.S. comic book companies – DC comics and Marvel. But did you know that there are a THOUSAND more superhero characters just filed away? Planet Money, our podcast show, decided to investigate if they could buy one superhero. Listen to their story and let’s talk about this episode on Thursday, May 13.
In observance of Eid we will be postponing today's Podcast Club meeting. Let's review "Planet Money - Super Hero" next Thursday, May 20.

Eid Mubarak!
