Review & Recap 回顧複習

• Listen to S1E3 on YouTube, SoundOn, Spotify, Apple Podcast

• #福英S1E3 逐字稿

• “Miller High Life, it’s not as if they’re packaging sparkling wine and tyring to sell it as Champagne. Miller High Life is just plain old beer.” (03:23) 翻譯反思：上述的「plain old beer」不是老舊的意思，是甚麼意思呢？答案是「一般、不特別、平庸」，有猜到嗎？

See you this Wednesday. Stay tuned!
