  • 990 - I’m Into - English Tips in a Minute | Happy English
    Feb 14 2026
    Hey there! It’s Michael here - and welcome back to English Tips in a Minute from Happy English. I’m here every Saturday with a short, simple tip to help you speak English more naturally and confidently.
    Today, let’s look at another, common conversational phrase - “I’m into…”

    We use I’m into to mean I really like or I’m interested in something. And here’s the cool thing - we use it for both romantic situations and everyday interests.

    For example, in a romantic way, you might say:
    “I think I’m really into her.”
    Or, “He’s into girls who love to travel.”
    But we also use it for hobbies and interests. Like:
    “I’m really into photography these days.”
    Or, “I’m not into horror movies.”

    So I’m into just means you have a strong interest in something - or someone. It’s casual, natural, and you’ll hear it all the time in everyday conversation.
    So remember, the next time you want to say you really like something - or someone - try using “I’m into…”
    Lemme know in the comments what you’re into these days, and remember to follow or subscribe so you don’t miss the next Happy English Podcast and next week’s English Tips in a Minute. Hey, thanks for listening - and until next time, keep learning and keep it cool.

  • 989 - Chisel Away At - Phrasal Verbs in a Minute | Happy English
    Feb 13 2026
    Hey there! It’s Michael here, and welcome back to Phrasal Verbs in a Minute from Happy English. I’m here every Friday with a quick one-point lesson to help you learn a new phrasal verb and sound more natural when you speak.

    Today’s phrasal verb is chisel away at. A chisel is a tool used to shape wood, a little at a time. When you chisel away at a task, it means you work on it little by little over time.
    • Like my friend Alex has been chiseling away at writing his novel for the past year. He only writes a few pages a week, but it’s adding up.
    • And my neighbor has been chiseling away at renovating his house - one room at a time.
    • These days, I’m chiseling away at improving my Japanese reading and writing. A little practice every day really makes a difference.

    So how about you? What’s something you’ve been chiseling away at recently? Let me know in the comments, and remember to follow or subscribe so you don’t miss the next Happy English Podcast and next week’s Phrasal Verbs in a Minute.

    Hey, thanks for listening - and until next time, keep learning and keep it cool.

  • 988 - Talking About Schedules and Availability in English
    Feb 12 2026
    Sometimes you need to tell someone whether you’re free or not. And when I say free, I’m talking about time, not cost. Maybe a coworker wants to set up a meeting. Maybe a friend wants to grab dinner. Maybe someone asks, “Are you available tomorrow?” In situations like these, you don’t need to say yes or no. In everyday English, we have a few short, natural phrases that clearly show whether we are available - or not. And that’s what this podcast English lesson is all about.
