Now I am a fan of this program too~ :)

It is an excellent program to improve listening comprehension and catch up with the news.

While I was listening, I jotted down a list of words/phrases I am interested in from the video clip.

Yes, it cost me more than 40 min precious morning time, but it’s totally worth it.

Don’t have much time to watch news to be in sync with what’s currently going on in the world. Or put it that I’ m not that much into political stuff. But I think at least I can watch this once a week.

Enlearner, keep posting this, please. Appreciate the video clip you provided, especially the tran, very helpful. Good job!

Part of my word list to share with whoever is insterested:

rehabilitate image: restore image
in sync with: 與……同步
hold ***** accountable in appropriate way: 用適當的方式讓某人負責
be held to account
accountability: 有責任,有義務
vast, unaccountable bureaucracies
scandal-ridden regulatory agency: 醜聞纏身的監管機構
crack down : 采取嚴厲措施,
lag behind
hoarding cash: 囤積現金
government infused phony recovery: 政府灌輸的假複蘇
anemic: 貧血的 there's been some sign of recovery, but it's really anemic
show valor and strength in the field
safe habor
safe haven: 港口; 安全地方
outpost: 前哨
anti-establishment sentiment: 反建製的情緒
anti- Washington sentiment: 反政府情緒

out-of- control government that is taxing too much, spending too much and borrowing too much.
