R: Ah, I love this time of year. I hope it snows too. Hey, everyone, Akino Roza here.
C: Chris McVay here. Hey you two, I wish you were not here. Ah, sorry, that's not good to say.
R: Hey!
C: Let's get started.
(3:59)
C: I'd like to add a point here that many learners say, "Let's take a virtual walk together with me." And you don't need to say "with me" because it's already included in "Let's." So, be careful with that one.
(14:07)

R: Well, I had one for about four years. In fact, I think that's why it lasted so long.
C: Probably.

C: Yeah, I had one for a year when my wife was completing her degree at a French university, and I was completing my degree at an English university. So, that final year, we were apart.
