Everyone has a dream. But sometimes there’s a gap between where we are and where we want to be. True, there are some people who can bridge that gap easily, on their own, but all of us need a little help at some point. A little boost. An accountability partner. A Snooze Squad. In each episode, the Snooze Squad will strategize an action plan for people to face their fears.

Have you ever had problems communicating with people from different cultures? Have you ever felt that your English is good, but you're still not getting your message across? Speaking a language isn't just about getting the words right – especially when you're dealing with people from all over the world.

We talk about: - what English as a lingua franca is; - who can communicate better in English: native speakers or non-native speakers (the answer will surprise you); - how to be polite in English; - an interesting case of misunderstandings between catering ladies from India and baggage handlers at Heathrow Airport; - how communication skills can save lives; - whether teachers are prescriptivists or descriptivists; - how giving grammar reasons and not grammar rules can be better teaching; - how language can show us our similarities and differences. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did (which was a lot!)
