51:55 - 'cunningly thrusting his head in' is just next-level of acting from Luke 🤣 So glad I didn’t miss the video version of this masterpiece moment, as I usually only listen on a podcast app.
I love your videos because you spend a lot of time explaining each word and its meaning. This a fabulous work! Thank you very much for this great work!
As an Austrian i am very pleased to improve my english 99% by listening to L. My favourite words are iinadvertently conspicous inauspicious allegedly and unerring..
Man, I'm listening to the podcast you did with the bilingual journalist and comedian and I'm having so much fun (and interest) listening to the pod. What you make is gold man! My hat off to you!
Conclusion: old fashioned English is way easier to learn than nowadays English. I mean to a person who speaks Portuguese because many words are similar, for sagacity-sagacidade, move a muscle - mover um músculo, and they mean the same. I loved this story, as you said, my cup of tea.
I can remember back in 2012 or sth like that, a friend of mine with A1, simple basic knowledge in English had been listening to your podcast every day while he was on his way to the gym. After half a year, his English improved so much that he could lead a decent conversation. I was amazed, wow! Ever since then, I've been on and off the podcast. Good job, Luke!
Is your friend from some other European countries? I think it is tough for people from Asia or other continents to learn English like that. But I have to admit your friends is a good language learner.
@ Serbia. Yeah, we don't have to learn alphabet. I can imagine what it would look like for me trying to learn ur language from scratch, it looks like some alien symbols to me, tbh😂
I love Edgar Allan Poe's writing. And thank you for sharing this story with us!!! Your explanation was fantastic!! From the bottom of my heart. Rosana Baytelman from Chile.
Thank you, I really appreciate this kind of episodes in which you go throughout the story line by line, for it's easier to remember new words and expressions listening to your explanations and examples rather than looking them up in a dictionary. 😊
Yes I enjoyed this short story. And what an actor you are Luke! I was completely enthraled by this psychological drama and didn't realise that the time was flying...
Thanks for the story. When I was 13, I devoured all of Poe's tales that I found in a book we had at home. If you present a Lovecraft story someday, I would be extremely happy.
#heart every day i listen to your podcast and admire you you've got a big heart ❤️ because preparing such a long podcast for us desire having a big heart ❤️
Thank you so much for sharing such a great video, Luke! This video is so good that I finally stopped being ninja and I’m writing this comment! You’re the best English teacher ever!!!❤

I don't know English very well, I don't know if I will watch and listen to you often, but your voice and visible personality are magnetic and I watched 3 episodes.
I love the way you tell stories, and particularly I love Edgar A. Poe, and you did an excellent job on this one, I’ve started to listen to you some months ago when I discovered you channel by mistake, what a good one!! I'm a foreigner living in France for the last 10 years, so my English went quite rusty I believe, but listening to you had improved my listening a lot, thanks Luke and I hope I can see one of your stand-up comedy shows one day
Hi Luke I want you to upload more short story videos because I finished all your videos and I would love to hear stories from you because you tell them so well... I hope you see my comment, thanks
Thank you for your insights on teaching English through stories. I thoroughly enjoyed them, and they enhanced my understanding of the nuances of the English language.
According to the Oxford English Dictionary (OED), "tattoo" refers to a rhythmic beating or pulsing, similar to the continuous sound of a drum. It conveys the sense of something being repeatedly struck, thumped, or tapped; it also describes "devil's tattoo" specifically as the action of drumming or tapping one's fingers or other objects idly-often in an annoying way, or as an expression of impatience, irritation, or frustration. Thank You, dear Luke,
I decided to follow you more frequently, Luke. The story was awesome in your narration. I would love to see another story from a famous writer, or it could be one of Edgar's novels. The vocabulary in this story is quite useful and gives a lot of insights. I downloaded the transcription for my reading studies!
Dear my teacher Luke, Thank you so much another amazing work. It has been 5 years since I started listening your podcast. You are the one who made me love this language. I have to mention that your by subscribing you LEP Premium podcast, my level got bigger. I love you much, Luke, not only you have done these but also you have better personality. Believe in me, If there is only one reason for me to listen to one episode untill the end, it is because of hearing bye bye bye bye.. Love you Lukeeeeee

I was looking for something like that :) I became very good at Arabic because I read many stories in Arabic from an early age. I started studying English because I like the language and the culture of Britain, as well as the great legacy of British literature. By the way, I finished reading Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl today, and then I found your work on RUclips. You’ve gained another student from Egypt. Thank you!
#Heart-"My heart went boom" when I saw your new podcast about Edgar Allan Poe's Tell-Tale Heart. I had been meaning to read it for a long time, but I could not find it in English. Your reading and comments made the story even more enjoyable. Your comments on the story at the end also give a perfect analysis. Perfect! ♥
It was the best scarry that i never heard in my life,good job❤😊 and to have more stories like tis in future in ur postcad, thanks for ur sharing of tis story.
Hi Luke, I am Navodita from. india 🙏 Thanks for making household chores enjoyable with your podcast! With Diwali preparations underway, your episodes have been a great companion. We're also hosting a guest from Germany soon, and your podcasts have helped me improve my listening skills. Grateful for your channel! Best regards from India!
hello！ it is the first time to comment in this channel! And I really like this story telling. Im totally absorbed in this for tow hours with no stop in the middle! I will go back to it again . Allen Poe’s description of the details are amazing
Hi Luke, I knew about this story, but I never had a chance to read it myself. When I saw you're doing this story I could hardly wait to listen to it. This was perfect with your reading and explanations. Thank you, I loved it and will probably be back to check out this podcast many more times. ❤❤❤
Luke at last l could find somewhere to thank you for your hearty teaching English . You know but still you may underscore how it is difficult for a non British to speak in a way that looks quite native . A struggle that may last longer than you may consider . What you have done add some minute Paint and finish to our continuous sense of belonging to a special dialect . Expressing is not the only goal we have the devil is in the details and you provide us with that teeny weeny adds on ! My compliments to you from Iran .😊
I like your storytelling better than any other animated version on RUclips.
