14a. Learn English with Tommy - Complaining

Tommy and I discuss how to complain, when to complain, and what things British people complain about.

This podcast comes with a warning: Tommy liked the Idiom Alarm a lot, so there are many idioms in this podcast (I even cut a lot out).

Please leave it with us, and we’ll get back to you with a solution
