A proposito di questo titolo

 Thinking in English is a podcast for intermediate and advanced English learners who want to do more than just study grammar and vocabulary. I believe that thinking is one of the most important steps on the road to fluency. That’s why each episode explores fascinating topics, from politics, economics, and history to philosophy, science, and culture. Instead of simply learning English, this podcast helps you learn in English. You’ll expand your knowledge, discover new ideas, and improve your language skills, all at the same time.

    370. What is the World’s Oldest Civilisation? (English Vocabulary Lesson)
    Jan 12 2026
    People love to debate history, especially when it comes to who was first. Last year, I made an episode about the oldest country in the world. I argued that the answer might be San Marino, because it has a long, continuous history as an independent state. And the reaction from listeners was… quite intense! I received comments from people around the world saying things like: “No, Egypt is older!” or “China has been around for thousands of years!” or “What about Iran?”. All of these arguments were interesting. But I think they were also missing something important: a country and a civilisation are not the same thing. So today, instead of talking about the oldest country, we’re asking a deeper question: What is the world’s oldest civilisation? This question is not easy to answer. In fact, it depends on how we define civilisation itself. And historians don’t always agree on that definition. But there is a popular idea called the Cradles of Civilisation. These are places in the world where human societies first grew into complex, organised, urban cultures. So, in today’s episode, we’ll explore these ancient cradles, find out what makes a civilisation, and decide whether there really is one society we can call “the oldest civilisation in the world,” all while learning some new English vocabulary!

  • 369. History of Australia! (English Vocabulary Lesson)

    369. History of Australia! (English Vocabulary Lesson)
    Jan 5 2026
    Australia is a country that many English learners dream of visiting, studying in, or even working in. Its beaches, culture, and cities are famous all over the world. But how much do you really know about the history of this country? In today’s episode, I want to discuss the development of Australia, from the first Aboriginal Australians who arrived tens of thousands of years ago, to the European settlers, the creation of modern Australia, and life today. Along the way, I’ll explain important vocabulary and expressions, so you can improve your listening and speaking skills as we explore the fascinating story of Australia together.

    368. How to Make Resolutions for 2026 (English Vocabulary Lesson)
    Dec 29 2025
    Interested in joining Patreon in 2026? 20% off with code 2026 - https://www.patreon.com/thinkinginenglish Last year, I made an episode where I openly shared my goals and New Year’s resolutions for 2025. Now, it’s time to look back and see how I did. In this episode, I’ll review my 2025 goals. I’ talk about what I achieved, what I only partially achieved, and where I failed. And there were definitely some failures. I’ll also share my personal and professional goals for 2026 and hopefully give you some ideas for your own New Year’s resolutions. Remember, I’m not perfect, and neither are you, but we can try! Let’s take a look at what I learned last year and what’s coming next.
