Learning English from the News
BBC Radio · BBC
Show overview
Learning English from the News has been publishing since 2017, and across the 9 years since has built a catalogue of 396 episodes. That works out to roughly 55 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a weekly cadence.
Episodes typically run under ten minutes — most land between 7 min and 10 min — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-language Education show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed yesterday, with 41 episodes already out so far this year. Published by BBC.
