How would you do if May put your Spanish to the test? We recorded this episode on location in Oaxaca, where May challenged Jim with Mexican expressions and wordplay he hadn't seen in advance. Play along: pause before Jim answers, say what you think the expression means in your own words, and then listen to May explain what she was looking for. No need to get every word right. The fun is seeing what you pick up from context and what catches you off guard.

Key Takeaways:

  • Practice figuring out what an expression means in context instead of translating it word for word.
  • Try explaining what you heard in your own Spanish before listening to Jim's answer.
  • Hear how tone and double meanings can change what someone is really saying.

Content note: Includes uncensored language and sexual wordplay.
