Description & Show Notes

Grab your coffee mugs and join us for a quick espresso-fueled chat about our love for coffee.

Fuel up your coffee enthusiasm! In this short but energizing espresso-fueled episode, your hosts Daniel and Patric delve into their shared love for that aromatic brew. 

While they confess to having a somewhat basic and uncultured view of coffee (preferring it black and not too sweet), their appreciation for the daily caffeine ritual is undeniable. From discussing brewing methods to sharing their morning routines, this duo celebrates the sheer necessity and simple joy of coffee in their lives.

During their chat, Daniel discovers a German word used in English [both words seem to originate from Yiddish shlepn] - all thanks to shows like Friends and Patrics passion for watching it in English.

Even though Daniel and Patric humbly admit they're not coffee connoisseurs, they're on a mission to learn and discover together. 

So, if you're a coffee aficionado or just love a good cup of joe, join in! Share your coffee wisdom, your brewing tips, or perhaps enlighten these two language enthusiasts with your favorite coffee vocabulary. Let's sip, chat, and explore the world of coffee together. #CoffeeChat
