Let's Chew the Fat

Hi everyone! We hope you guys are doing well :) In this podcast episode, we recap our past week, which included a Raclette night (delicious!), a presentation in Spanish (we were only a little bit stressed out...) and an afternoon spent shopping for Christmas decorations.   For the main topic, we give you the whole rundown of how we made the decision to go study abroad in Madrid, how we applie...

Hi, everyone! As you probably expected, we had our second pilates class, which made us VERY sore. We could barely manage to walk and no, we are not exaggerating one bit. The whole week was so busy and hectic that the day we were recording, Lauren forgot to bring her mic and when she decided to go grab it, she forgot her keys. So we decided to let it be and recorded this episode at 9PM that day! Ap...

Hi!  We're back for another podcast episode. This week, we look back on our Halloween plans, our very first Pilates class, Lauren's second time taking her Political Philosophy midterm (after the professor lost it...), and our complete failure to properly melt chocolate (do NOT add water!). For the main topic of this week's episode, we take a walk down memory lane and talk about how we experie...

But we've (almost) recovered and decided to distract ourselves from all the stress by playing a little game.  It is fascinating to see...

Uff. Our first midterm, interesting wine opening strategies, and another in-class activity we would have rather not been a part of... These are just a few of the points we cover this week. For the main part of the episode, we share our personal list of culture shocks and talk about the main differences we've noticed after moving from Switzerland and the Czech Republic to Spain. We touch on everyth...

Hi! We covered a lot in this one... Scary speaking exercise, pizza night with wine (that we failed to open properly) and Britney Spears documentary AND we laughed a lot. But mainly, we focus on our cooking skills (or rather lack thereof 😁), Lauren describes what her usual grocery shopping list looks like and we share a few pieces of advice that we've found helpful so far. (Sneak peek: don't...

Hi! This is an introduction to our podcast Let's Chew the Fat that we, Lauren and Kristýna, created.

We share some funny stories and challenges that we've encountered along the way. And of course, we explain how we met!  With love,  L & K  Podcast's IG...
