April 27, 2010 at 8:32 PMaaand 2 hours in and I'm still on the 2nd sentence and I'm going to have to stop for a while before I kill myself or really start hating the sound of Jenny's voice (no offence, Jenny!).
p.s. if you slow John's voice down to half speed he sounds hilarously drunk. "Heeeyyy Jennnyyyyyy"
p.s. fruits of my (fruitless) work:
John (English and sounding much younger, even though it was only 4 years ago): Hi and welcome to Chinesepod. Mandarin on your terms. I am John, and with me is Jenny.
Jenny: ng, John, 你好
John: (English) Hey, Jenny. So today we have an Intermediate lesson.
Jenny: 对。今天而且呐中级课程 是觉得有一点不那么严肃。这是有一点浪漫的成分在 (lu mian?)对吧?
p.p.s. there is no way that the 且 in the first 而且sounds anything like qie. :-p

April 27, 2010 at 11:11 AMI thought I'd (rather hopefully) try some intermediate, and I'm a sucker for a story, so added this story series. Was that a mistake? I was quite glad to read in the comments that the banter is above the normally expected level, but after a couple of listens I am getting there with the conversation, I think... In at the deep end, I guess :)
