分享看剧感受！
朋友们你们好！今天的零食叫做“星期三”。我们来一起边吃边学吧！ 
 ”星期三“是一个女孩的名字。这个小女孩平时全身只穿黑色衣服。而她的表情总是给出一个难以与人相处的印象。她很喜欢侦探推理和那些古怪的东西。

 首先要说的是，我真的被“星期三”的性格吸引了。她活在自己的世界里，不在乎任何人的评价，只有我可以定义自己。这个女孩不仅个性特殊还很有想法，是不是？

说实话，作为一个敏感过度在意他人感受的我，其实是非常累的，所以真的对“星期三”着迷。尤其看到她跳舞那段。看上去有那种舞池中我是主角，欢迎来到我世界的感觉。特别有风格！ 
 然后也不能不提到另外一个很有趣的人物。一直陪着“星期三”是一个叫“小东西”。我十分喜欢“小东西”！那只手是我本剧最爱的设定。你们说，谁不想拥有一只骄傲敏感无所不能的小挂件呢？ 
 “星期三” 这部悬疑的美剧，你看了吗？你喜欢的是什么人物呢？快来告诉我吧！

2022年12月16号 - 最近看了“星期三” - 第一印象！ (Intermediate)

In questo podcast faccio un'intervista ad un ragazzo italiano, di madre colombiana e padre italiano che si é trasferito un anno fa a Los Angeles, California, per studiare recitazione. Si parla sulle differenze culturali tra gli Stati Uniti e l'Italia, anche sul mondo del lavoro. Un altro aspetto è il fatto di essere cresciuto tra due culture: la cultura colombiana e quella italiana, parliamo anche sul suo percorso lingustico. Come tempi verbali: pasato prossimo, passato remoto, imperfetto, presente indicativo.
