What is Halloween really like in Canada? 🎃

In this episode of Extra English Podcast, Misha and Larissa talk about one of Canada's most recognizable traditions: Halloween!

We share childhood memories, talk about trick-or-treating and creative costumes, and discuss the little traditions that make Halloween special. Why did kids used to be afraid of finding razor blades in their Halloween candy? What were UNICEF boxes, and why don't we see them anymore? And what happens when you wear a costume that nobody understands?

We also talk about Halloween as a community event, how Canadian families celebrate, and what it might feel like to experience Halloween for the first time in a new country.

Whether you've celebrated Halloween for years or you're just curious about life in Canada, join us for a relaxed conversation full of stories, cultural insights, and useful everyday English.

🎧 Listen, learn, and enjoy real Canadian English with Misha and Larissa.

Are neighbours in Canada friendly? In this episode, we share funny, awkward, and heartwarming stories about the people who live next door.

From a giant dog mistaken for a cow to an ex you try to avoid in your own apartment building, we talk about childhood memories, neighbourhood gossip, unexpected friendships, and the small ways neighbours look out for each other. Plus, there's a little girl who thought she'd been invited to a cat pool.

We also talk about getting to know your neighbours in Canada, whether you're living in an apartment building or a house, and why a friendly neighbourhood can make such a difference.

Join Misha and Larissa for a relaxed conversation full of real Canadian English, everyday expressions, and stories from life in Canada.

Why are some everyday things so much harder than they should be?

In this episode of the Extra English Podcast, we're talking about the things we're surprisingly bad at. From parking and keeping houseplants alive to estimating quantities, remembering people's names, and somehow getting lost in a mall or on a road we've driven before, we've got a lot to confess.

And then there's going to bed at a reasonable hour. We all know how that one goes.

Join Misha and Larissa for a casual, honest, and hopefully reassuring conversation about everyday struggles, bad habits, and the things we probably should have figured out by now.

If you're learning English, this is a chance to hear natural, everyday Canadian English in a real conversation, with personal stories, humour, and plenty of relatable moments.

What are you surprisingly bad at? We'd love to hear!
