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.

Get your night back
to take control of your evening again and choose rest instead of scrolling or staying up too late
Example:
Get back your night.” Not by staying awake out of revenge… but by choosing rest out of respect for yourself.
Hello and welcome to a weekend episode of Daily English —where we try to grow, in English and in life. Today’s episode is about a habit many people struggle with, but almost no one understands:
Revenge bedtime procrastination. It’s when you stay up late — scrolling, watching, doing anything except sleeping — not because you have energy, but because the day didn’t feel like it belonged to you.
You spent the whole day responding, working, helping, rushing… and by the time it was finally quiet, your brain whispered:
“This time is mine. I’m not giving it up.” And for a few minutes, that feels powerful. It feels like you’re finally choosing yourself. But here’s the truth:
You’re not avoiding sleep. You’re avoiding the feeling that your whole day was taken from you.
The problem isn’t bedtime. The problem is how little space you had for yourself.
Revenge bedtime procrastination is not a discipline problem. It’s a boundary problem.
A self-time problem. A your-day-doesn’t-feel-like-your-day problem.
And the solution is not forcing yourself to sleep earlier. The solution is giving yourself small windows of freedom before the night arrives.
You can Claim one moment during the day that belongs only to you. Five minutes of fresh air. A cup of tea alone. A quiet breath without responsibilities with mindfulness. Small pockets of freedom prevent the night from becoming the only escape.
You can also Create a gentle evening landing. Dim the lights. Put the phone away.
Let your body slow down.Make sleep feel like a gift — not a punishment.
End your day on your terms.Try saying: “Today is enough. I am done for now.”
Your mind needs to hear that closure.
And remember today’s expression: it means to take control of your evening again and choose rest instead of scrolling or staying up too late
get back your night.” Not by staying awake out of revenge… but by choosing rest out of respect for yourself.
So here’s my question for you: Are you staying up late because you’re not tired… Or because it’s the only time that feels like yo urs?
.
And what small moment tomorrow could help you reclaim your day So your night doesn’t have to rescue you?
You deserve rest. You deserve space. And you deserve a day — not just a night —
that feels like your own.
Thank you for being here today, and see you tomorrow.
