Daily English Pod
Daily English Pod is a space for learning English beyond grammar and textbooks.
During the week, you’ll learn practical vocabulary, expressions, idioms, and real-life English, the language people actually use in everyday conversations, emotions, and work.
On weekends, we slow down. Through ideas from psychology, philosophy, and real human experience, we explore language as a way to better understand life, emotions, identity, and growth.
This podcast is created by Jale, an English teacher with 13 years of teaching experience and a Master’s degree in Applied Linguistics from Canada, who teaches with patience, clarity, and care, and believes learning works best when students feel seen, respected, and safe to think aloud.
The goal is simple but meaningful: to help you understand English deeply, use it confidently, and connect it to your real life. English here is not just a skill. It’s a gentle companion for clearer thinking, honest expression, and deeper human connection.

Full of it
If someone is full of it, it means they are not telling the truth, exaggerating, or just talking nonsense.
Examples:
1- She said she could run a marathon without training—yeah, she’s full of it.
2- Politicians can sound full of it when they make too many empty promises.
Hello and welcome back to Daily English! Today’s expression is very informal and very useful: “full of it.”
Repetition
Say it with me: full of it. One more time: full of it.
– Imagine someone bragging about how they once met three Hollywood stars in one day. But you know it’s not true. You think, “He’s full of it.”
– A kid promises they’ll do all their homework and chores tomorrow—but they never do. You say, “You’re full of it.”
– A politician makes a long speech about helping people, but never takes action. Many listeners say, “He’s full of it.”
