what does the last sentence mean? 不听也知道。 is it something like "I already know what you're going to say?"

Mai Tai is a tasty cocktail known for its fruity flavor. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mai_Tai how many drinks or lessons about drinks does one need before they become classified as a 酒鬼？

for me at least, i've found that that there are no easy shortcuts to getting to the next level of chinese. the more you listen to native chinese speakers speaking at a normal pace, the more your ears will get used to it, so keep listening to those podcasts, even if you don't get everything. Another obstacle may be the number of vocabulary words you know. For this I suggest using flashcards or any other similar method. Just find some chinese comics (like doraemon) or something you find interesting and add every unfamiliar word you come across to your list. it might seem like you're adding every word on the page at first but if you keep persisting eventually your vocabulary will be wide enough for you to understand chinese banter. just a suggestion.

at first i thought the guy in the dialogue suggested 会不会去世了？ and thought that they were talking rather nonchalantly about the possible death of a loved one.

Zhang Liang should hire an assassin to get rid of Liu Xiang. I think that would take the story in an interesting new direction and also be a very useful/practical lesson as well.

this lesson was da bomb. i don't think it can get any more perfect than this. Jenny's "aiyo" right after the first dialogue cracked me up.
