Thinking in English
Thomas Wilkinson
Thinking in English is a podcast designed for intermediate and advanced English learners. I believe that thinking is an incredibly important step on the road fluency, and we aim to help you achieve this by discussing topics ranging from politics and economics, to philosophy and science. Rather than "learning English", Thinking in English focuses on "learning in English." Learn something new, listen to something interesting, and improve your English at the same time!

In this Halloween special episode of Thinking in English, we are going to explore the history, causes, and legacy of the infamous witch hunt!
