I love this episode. As a non-native English speaker, I can laugh and learn at the same time. Thank you, Luke, you're helping me to enjoy more English jokes. I love these jokes: ”Bad example“，”Sluggish snail“，“You have my WORD”，"Mirror Factory“，“Being frank”，“The Titanic is syncing”，”Calendar factory“，”Seasoned veteran“，“Sleep naturally“，“Resisting a rest”. Double meaning jokes are very funny to me. I also learned several idioms and vocabularies, love it !
Luke, being a non native speaker in Malaysia, I could understand most of the jokes. Your explanation is crystal clear n I learned new vocab. Puns are fun altho challenging to grasp. Thk you for making this podcast so interesting.
I love this episode. These jokes are a great help to remember new words. (Never worry about the frogs, many are still alive.) Beside the jokes and vocabulary, I also enjoy learning the cultural differences in respect of humour. Great channel, great video, thank you!
Hi teacher Luke, i find this episode very interesting, I am a teacher of English as foreign language and I have understood just some of them , not easy at all to teach jokes for learners , thanks so much for sharing this with us I really like it and I have learnt much from it , thnx again
Hi,Luke.I enjoyed your lesson on humor.I'm an Argentine teacher and I do understand how dificultad it's to explain students to get Jokes in a foreign language.you're a great actor and teacher.congrats! Julio.
Excellent I am a Spanish speaker , student of English and I found some funny and I had to wait till the explanation to fully understand the others. Great job!!!
As a Russian person I found joke about rushing people very funny and clever 😂 thank you so much for your work. It’s really useful. Love to listen you before sleeping ❤
Although I don't laugh, I find these jokes quite useful to remember vocabulary and I love the way you explain meanings of words or phrases. It's easy to understand and remember. Thanks a lot!!!!!
Great episode! :-) I am amused. I understood like 75% of the jokes. I wrote down 5 of them which I found really funny. (completely useless, cows and bells, light faster than sound, camouflage trousers, sleeping) :-D Thank you! You made my day!
Hi Luke, It is a brilliant idea to talk about jokes. Now, I have a lot of associations for remembering new words. I got 5 of 22 jokes at the first stage. After your explanations, everything is clearly. 🐸 My favorite ones are about a snail, Titanic syncing and kleptomaniacs. Million thanks for your work:)
Thank you Luke for uploading this interesting topic video! I’ve started changing my english accent recently and i figured it out that you are the best teacher amongst a lot of Brit RUclipsrs! Thank you again :)
Thank you, Luuuuke! I like this type of episodes. I got almost all the jokes (20/22) except the one with iceberg and the one about a double entendre. Merci for all the explanations)) They are enjoyable to listen to even after understanding the joke. And I laughed out loud at most of them
Thank you Luke. It is funnier when you tell then and seeing your face or hearing your intonation than the joke itself. You always do such a great job teaching english, always funny and enjoyble.
Some of the puns are really fun). Every time I climb the ladder at second floor of my house I recall this joke “ I don’t trust ladders, they always up to something “. I also heard it at other podcast of English tutoring. Best way to leverage your English is listening to native speakers and stand ups as they make you comprehend jokes.
Jajaja the jokes themselves didn´t make me laugh so hard as Luke´s comments! Love really easy-going, relaxed and funny, but still smart way you teach us! Thanks for existing)
Thank you so much for this podcast. Dissection of jokes is my favorite topic. However, not all frogs died in the process. When Luke was explaining the joke "sleeping comes so naturally to me" and noticed that it would be unnatural to do it with open eyes, it made me laugh))
I love this episode very much! I did not really understand the points for some of the jokes until you explained the details. It is a really helpful episode, thanks a lot, Luke!
Literally means that the meaning is exactly what the words say: Hanging around means being present. Literally hanging around means hanging from a hook in the ceiling.
The jokes went well. Luke, you are a typical English man. Very understated and this makes it funnier. As a native Kiwi practitioner, of English,I smirked mostly but more than a few good laughs.
Thank you so much x this episode, so much fun. Very useful for learning new vocab in a fun way. I laughed at a few of them, smiled at most of them. Did not get at all a few. Such as the one on tyson and at the bar. Thanks a lot again!
It's so interesting to study humour of different countries. It's true when one says that if you understand jokes, you understand language. Listening the joke about light and speaking, I remmembered a Russian version of this. Three friends met. One asked: What is the fastest thing in the world? The first guy said: - I think, it's light. The second said: - No, I think, it's word: A word spoken is past recalling. The third guy protested: - Hmm, I think, the fastest thing in the world is diarrhea. I had it yesterday and had no time to switch the light on or say a word;) I hope my translation is understandable) have a good day! sorry for mistakes
You were born for this buddy. Love your style, your voice is perfect for podcasting and I'm so pleased you've got shitloads of followers. Good on ya mate! YootClub forever! XXX
Hi Luke! thank you for this great podcast! May I write down what i get from these jokes: 1) Ironic: You make the person feel better and useful, but as a bad example 2) To feel sluggish means to have a weak body and slow thinking with cloudy mind after a daytime nap. Also “sluggish” means similar to another creature like a snail but without a shell (slug) 3) First sentence is the statistics that shows the level of crime incidence in London: every 52 seconds someone is getting stabbed with a knife. But the structure of the sentence might suggest that one person repeatedly is stabbed every 52 seconds. Second sentence is said when you feel empathy to someone in trouble 4) “You have my word” has two meanings. One is a promise to do something, eg, “I’ll bring you money at 6 am. You have my word”. The second is that someone who has stolen Microsoft Office software now has the Microsoft Office Word too. 5) Fog is a cloud on the ground. Mist is like a fog but a bit tinner. “Missed” and “Mist” are homophones 6) “To see oneself doing something” is an imagination that comes to you when you’re thinking what job should you apply for. But in the sentence this can also have a literal meaning 7) Pirates usually say “Aye” (a colloquial way to say “Yes”) and “Matey” meaning “Mate”. So usually pirates say, “Aye Matey” (Mate) what sounds similar to “I’m eighty” 8) “Horn” has double meanings, one is horns of bulls and cows and second is the musical instrument like a trumpet. 9) Plagiarism is stealing of someone else’s idea. Someone came up with (invented) stealing someone else’s word or text 10) “Double entendre” is a comment that could have a sexual meaning but it sounds like a name of cocktail. “Gave it to her” is also a double entendre 11) Lisp is a speech impediment (шепелявость). Someone who has lisp can’t pronounce “s” and “ʃ”. Words “think” and “unthinkable” sound for them like “sink” and “unsinkable”. So, “How do you sink the unsinkable?” - “With an iceberg” (pronounced like “itheberg” because Mike Tyson is famous for having lisp) 12) Another version of the proverb, “Keep silent and you look wise, until you speak and show up your stupidity” 13) Frank is also a person’s name, so Tom have a split personality (like a person with schizophrenia) because he said being also Frank (not frank - brutally honest) 14) “Syncing” means synchronizing and is a homophone for “sinking” that Titanic was in April, 1912 15) Puns are words that sound similar but have different meanings. Puns also might be some kinds of play on words, or words collocations, that have literal and figurative meanings. It’s hard to explain puns to kleptomaniacs because they can’t take things figuratively, they take them literally (steal them) 16) “Big metal fan” has two meanings: 1) a fan of heave metal music, 2) a fan made of metal (windmill looks like a big fan made of metal) 17) “Take a day off” has two meanings: 1) not to go to work due your sickness, 2) to reduce the amount of days in calendar (eg., in April month) 18) The word “seasoned” is used to emphasize the high level of experience that veteran has (someone who has many seasons experience); Pepper and mustard are related to seasonings. So if the person has an experience of exposure to pepper spray and mustard gas might be called seasoned (exposed to seasonings) veteran 19) Camouflage (khaki) is kind of clothes that help you blend in surroundings, so no one can see you. That’s why it’s OK not to find a camouflage trousers, because they’re normally supposed not to be seen 20) “Missis hippie” is pronounced “Mississippi” because “h” letter is usually silent (omitted) like in “Check’im out” 21) If you do something with your eyes closed (figurative meaning), you do it without much efforts. If something comes to you naturally that means you don’t need to try it or to learn it. Sleeping comes naturally to you, because you do this with your eyes closed (literally) 22) “Resisting a rest” sounds like “Resisting arrest” Please keep doing this kind of lessons! Take care!
Great !! Very precious to take part in everyday conversation with pales. Never found before ! Thank's a lot. Will you post any more ? With short stories too. 😊 Kind Regards.
Enjoyed at lots of it (Although I understood only a pair before they were explained) The one about mirrors I liked most, also because I can't help laughing when looking at my own face. Regards Luke!!
Hi Luc. I understood more than I thought I would, 17 out of 22. For example, I didn't get the Mike Tyson joke. But after you explained it, I got it and laughed. We'll see what happens next. I think both Titanic jokes are very good.
Thank you for your work, Luke! It´s fabulous!!! Some months ago I started listening to your podcasts to refresh my sleeping english for a trip. I really enjoy them. I came back from my trip and I keep listening to them. Some were good jokes. Congrats!!!
Год назад+1
But 99% of the explanations are on point, interesting and sometimes even funnier than the joke being dissected. Kudos, man!
"I renamed my iPod The Titanic. When I plug it in, it says The titanic is syncing" is the joke that I like most. It is very funny. When I heard this joke, I was confused between sinking and syncing, but then I realized it's actually hilarious. Thanks for sharing
Good podcast, enjoyable! I understood majority of the jokes (with exception of the ones using very special vocabulary such as pirate and hot blonde). The best one for me is the three old child resisting a rest! I really love that one (frankly, all your podcasts)!
I liked the hippies joke and their wifes "Mississipi" it's the best. I'm 80 years old and admired you. I disliked the pirates one. Do you understand why?
Great episode. The great joke was: - Can i be a frank - Can you be just Luke. I get 4 of 22 jokes in first round. the joke with cows is the best, I think. i remember joke from a mentor: It's better talk nothing and looks like an idiot, then open mouth and confirm it.
Yes, you can. Why not listen to the audio version using a podcast app on your phone? No need to close your eyes, and you can do other things while you listen.
Thanks a lot, your explanations are done in a very clear and straightforward manner, so that every single detail is very clear! As for me, I've got almost each joke from the very beginning, but for a couple of some jokes (about a hot blond and a poor bastard and probably one more)
I just discovered your podcast a few days ago and kind of started listening backwards... so my comment comes a bit late but anyway, I can't help myself, as a trumpet player I enjoyed the podcast up until 24:17 of this episode... Luke, a trumpet is cylindrical shaped, exept for the end. A horn is conical, so it starts as a small tube at the mouthpiece and constantly grows bigger in diameter... thats why you can't get a straight tone out of a horn... To sum up: a Trumpet is not a horn!! Got it!? Greetings from a disappointed Trumpet player, who otherwise enjoys listening 😜
The jokes about kleptomaniacs and Tyson made me laugh 😁. So smart There are another two that I like: 1. I tried to sue the airport for misplacing my luggage. I lost my case. 2. So.. I said to the waitress...”can I ask about the menu please”? She screamed back “the men I please are none of your business..”!! Wordplay puns are always funny Thanks for the video 😂
😂 Always fun hearing your puns. I look forward to more of them. The one I prefer is about being Frank which has an english litterature reminiscence with Oscar Wild' s importance of being Earnest/Ernest
Dear Luke, I love all your joke's episodes. I can't usually catch all of jokes, of course! But I consider it as a great chance to touch to English humour. How patient you are to all this explanations. Well done!

very enjoyable for all the 22 jokes and your explanations. Thank you 😊
You always do a wonderful work,explaining very well, in detall everything.Many thanks
Literally means that the meaning is exactly what the words say: Hanging around means being present. Literally hanging around means hanging from a hook in the ceiling.
When I first listened to you say them, I understand some of them but after you explain them so I cracked.
The best one, I'm a big metal fan.
Hi! luke
Thank you so much for your english lecture!
It's wonderful 😁
The funny thing is understanding the double meaning of words.thanx so much
The jokes went well. Luke, you are a typical English man. Very understated and this makes it funnier. As a native Kiwi practitioner, of English,I smirked mostly but more than a few good laughs.
Great! I guess they are very English...You don't get the explanation in books and that's why I find this video so useful.
Thank you!
Thank you so much x this episode, so much fun. Very useful for learning new vocab in a fun way. I laughed at a few of them, smiled at most of them. Did not get at all a few. Such as the one on tyson and at the bar. Thanks a lot again!
I love your way of teaching language. thank you.
It's so interesting to study humour of different countries. It's true when one says that if you understand jokes, you understand language. Listening the joke about light and speaking, I remmembered a Russian version of this.
Three friends met. One asked: What is the fastest thing in the world? The first guy said: - I think, it's light. The second said: - No, I think, it's word: A word spoken is past recalling.
The third guy protested: - Hmm, I think, the fastest thing in the world is diarrhea. I had it yesterday and had no time to switch the light on or say a word;)
I hope my translation is understandable) have a good day! sorry for mistakes

Thanks Luke! I like your podcast very much!!! You are great!
Very, very FUNNY, though the sense of HUMMOR is ABSOLUTELY DIFFERENT on the other side of the World (Argentina)
Hey Luke, good work, i almost understood all of them, and i think they weren´t bad, more than a half of them made me smile.
Thank you. You are a veteran teacher . I really enjoyed this episode
Well done !!! Keep it going this way and I’ll be expert in English. With respect, Rasul from Russia.
Hi Luke! thank you for this great podcast!
May I write down what i get from these jokes:
1) Ironic: You make the person feel better and useful, but as a bad example
2) To feel sluggish means to have a weak body and slow thinking with cloudy mind after a daytime nap. Also “sluggish” means similar to another creature like a snail but without a shell (slug)
3) First sentence is the statistics that shows the level of crime incidence in London: every 52 seconds someone is getting stabbed with a knife. But the structure of the sentence might suggest that one person repeatedly is stabbed every 52 seconds. Second sentence is said when you feel empathy to someone in trouble
4) “You have my word” has two meanings. One is a promise to do something, eg, “I’ll bring you money at 6 am. You have my word”. The second is that someone who has stolen Microsoft Office software now has the Microsoft Office Word too.
5) Fog is a cloud on the ground. Mist is like a fog but a bit tinner. “Missed” and “Mist” are homophones
6) “To see oneself doing something” is an imagination that comes to you when you’re thinking what job should you apply for. But in the sentence this can also have a literal meaning
7) Pirates usually say “Aye” (a colloquial way to say “Yes”) and “Matey” meaning “Mate”. So usually pirates say, “Aye Matey” (Mate) what sounds similar to “I’m eighty”
8) “Horn” has double meanings, one is horns of bulls and cows and second is the musical instrument like a trumpet.
9) Plagiarism is stealing of someone else’s idea. Someone came up with (invented) stealing someone else’s word or text
10) “Double entendre” is a comment that could have a sexual meaning but it sounds like a name of cocktail. “Gave it to her” is also a double entendre
11) Lisp is a speech impediment (шепелявость). Someone who has lisp can’t pronounce “s” and “ʃ”. Words “think” and “unthinkable” sound for them like “sink” and “unsinkable”. So, “How do you sink the unsinkable?” - “With an iceberg” (pronounced like “itheberg” because Mike Tyson is famous for having lisp)
12) Another version of the proverb, “Keep silent and you look wise, until you speak and show up your stupidity”
13) Frank is also a person’s name, so Tom have a split personality (like a person with schizophrenia) because he said being also Frank (not frank - brutally honest)
14) “Syncing” means synchronizing and is a homophone for “sinking” that Titanic was in April, 1912
15) Puns are words that sound similar but have different meanings. Puns also might be some kinds of play on words, or words collocations, that have literal and figurative meanings. It’s hard to explain puns to kleptomaniacs because they can’t take things figuratively, they take them literally (steal them)
16) “Big metal fan” has two meanings: 1) a fan of heave metal music, 2) a fan made of metal (windmill looks like a big fan made of metal)
17) “Take a day off” has two meanings: 1) not to go to work due your sickness, 2) to reduce the amount of days in calendar (eg., in April month)
18) The word “seasoned” is used to emphasize the high level of experience that veteran has (someone who has many seasons experience); Pepper and mustard are related to seasonings. So if the person has an experience of exposure to pepper spray and mustard gas might be called seasoned (exposed to seasonings) veteran
19) Camouflage (khaki) is kind of clothes that help you blend in surroundings, so no one can see you. That’s why it’s OK not to find a camouflage trousers, because they’re normally supposed not to be seen
20) “Missis hippie” is pronounced “Mississippi” because “h” letter is usually silent (omitted) like in “Check’im out”
21) If you do something with your eyes closed (figurative meaning), you do it without much efforts. If something comes to you naturally that means you don’t need to try it or to learn it. Sleeping comes naturally to you, because you do this with your eyes closed (literally)
22) “Resisting a rest” sounds like “Resisting arrest”
Please keep doing this kind of lessons!
Take care!
Great job. You summed that up pretty well. I've also learned a lot from your comments.
Great !! Very precious to take part in everyday conversation with pales. Never found before ! Thank's a lot. Will you post any more ? With short stories too. 😊
Kind Regards.
Enjoyed at lots of it (Although I understood only a pair before they were explained) The one about mirrors I liked most, also because I can't help laughing when looking at my own face. Regards Luke!!
You are a gifted teacher, as they say in Germany. And in Russia they would say, so you are a teacher of God. 😊
Hi Luc. I understood more than I thought I would, 17 out of 22.
For example, I didn't get the Mike Tyson joke.
But after you explained it, I got it and laughed. We'll see what happens next. I think both Titanic jokes are very good.
The joke about MsOffice was Excellent! 😉
But the best joke was about the light travelling faster than sound.
Also one other joke I came across recently and like it:
Why did scarecrow win an award?
Because it stand out in its fields 😂
Have you been watching The Last of Us?
@@LukesEnglishPodcast Unfortunately no yet
@@Isusia That scarecrow joke appears on one of the episodes
Very good example: to stand out =
to be out standing (outstanding) /
exceptional/amazing!
Thank you for the podcast ❤❤❤
Thank you very much Luke. I love being hearing you even though I understand not much.
thanks for your videos here and at the same time your podcasts on google podcasts , your fan from Iran , all the bests 👍👍👍
Thank you for your work, Luke! It´s fabulous!!! Some months ago I started listening to your podcasts to refresh my sleeping english for a trip. I really enjoy them. I came back from my trip and I keep listening to them.

Even after your dissecting the SLUGGISH joke is so funny hahaha Thank u so much and really love this episode!

Luke is so funny. I really enjoy listening and watch his videos
Actually I have been to uk for three years so I can understand the most part of ur podcast now I m back in my own native country
I like your RUclips. Its very useful for listening training.
Great episode.
The great joke was:
- Can i be a frank
- Can you be just Luke.
I get 4 of 22 jokes in first round.
the joke with cows is the best, I think.
i remember joke from a mentor:
It's better talk nothing and looks like an idiot,
then open mouth and confirm it.
Cool joke, mate!
Thanks. I appreciate your way of explaning. It's funny.
I could listen to your podcasts my eyes closed ❤
Yes, you can. Why not listen to the audio version using a podcast app on your phone? No need to close your eyes, and you can do other things while you listen.
Thank you Luke i’m Eduardo from Argentina. useful explanations I got sames and others you explain it to me and make sense
Q: What did the bald man say when he got a comb for his birthday?
A: I’ll never part with it.
He'll never be able to part his hair with it! Also: he won't part with it/ he will keep the comb forever. Like it!
Hi.it was great .i found it so useful and it made me laughed ,as well.
THANK YOU.🎧☘👏
All clever. Definitely my kind of humour. Didn't understand the double entendre one. Laughed at the last one.
Thanks for sharing 😊
You are good in scientific research guidelines too😅
Thank you for this clip. I have been thinking of asking you to talk about British joke / British humour. Appreciated.
I am not to used listening British accent and I could understand you clearly. ❤
Accidentally i drop into this , i enjoy hearing the lecture. Many thanks to yoy
Metal ventilator! 🤣
So useful for learning, so please, upload more material like this.
Thx Luke!
I looove this class, thank you very much 🤗
Very usefully for me...
It is just brilliant episode!!!
Many thanks
Adored this video 😍😍😍😍!!! Please make such videos🎈🎈🎈
enjoyed this a lot, it's very good. thanks so much
Great idea - to explain jokes) 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I have come across this podcast only today and I'm already becoming addicted I'm afraid...
Thanks Luke this session. The frog is still alive!!
Oh, I learned a lot from this vid, and have so much fun!! Thank you Luke!!
Thanks a lot, your explanations are done in a very clear and straightforward manner, so that every single detail is very clear! As for me, I've got almost each joke from the very beginning, but for a couple of some jokes (about a hot blond and a poor bastard and probably one more)
I just discovered your podcast a few days ago and kind of started listening backwards... so my comment comes a bit late but anyway, I can't help myself, as a trumpet player I enjoyed the podcast up until 24:17 of this episode... Luke, a trumpet is cylindrical shaped, exept for the end. A horn is conical, so it starts as a small tube at the mouthpiece and constantly grows bigger in diameter... thats why you can't get a straight tone out of a horn... To sum up: a Trumpet is not a horn!! Got it!? Greetings from a disappointed Trumpet player, who otherwise enjoys listening 😜
The jokes about kleptomaniacs and Tyson made me laugh 😁. So smart
There are another two that I like:
1. I tried to sue the airport for misplacing my luggage.
I lost my case.
2. So.. I said to the waitress...”can I ask about the menu please”?
She screamed back “the men I please are none of your business..”!!
Wordplay puns are always funny
Thanks for the video 😂
As I understand, puns are:
1) case, as a suitcase and as a legal case in court,
2) "menu, please" as men_U[you] please.
Poor frogs. :-(
Two great jokes!
Your perfect accent is what i am looking for
😂 Always fun hearing your puns. I look forward to more of them. The one I prefer is about being Frank which has an english litterature reminiscence with Oscar Wild' s importance of being Earnest/Ernest
NOW I am able to understand how to laugh out loud at English jokes!
Dear Luke, I love all your joke's episodes. I can't usually catch all of jokes, of course! But I consider it as a great chance to touch to English humour. How patient you are to all this explanations. Well done!
