Ep.39: How Much Do You Know About American History? (Part I)
•
In this episode, we will talk together about American history. Maybe some of you know that I studied English and English literature at the university but with that, a huge part of my studies was the culture of American and British society. And that is why I really like to talk about it and I am very interested in it. That is why this is one of the first episodes about this topic but certainly not the last because you can’t even imagine how interesting British and American history is. Sometimes it is really like a comedy. And sometimes also tragedy.
So today, I prepared for you a little fun quiz where you can listen, test yourself, and maybe learn something new. Are you ready? Here we go!
