Why it works for learners
This is learner content, and its own description aims it at intermediate to advanced listeners. Lindsay and Michelle talk at a relaxed conversational pace while focusing on idioms, phrasal verbs and small talk, then explain them. So you get something native podcasts don't offer: speakers who notice what's confusing and stop to unpack it. Thousands of episodes mean you can search for almost any social situation, and short regular episodes fit easily into a commute.
What makes it hard
The hosts talk fast and laugh over each other, more so than a textbook recording. American idioms come thick and fast, and you can't use them all at once. Since it is a business, episodes also include promotions for paid products.
How to use it
Choose episodes on situations you actually face, such as small talk or work. Listen once without pausing, then note two phrases and use them within the next day. Replay short exchanges and copy the rhythm, not just the words.
Keep it where you'll see it
