25 分钟Hello, my lovely learners.
Today's episode is not from Easy Stories in English, although I am Ariel Goodbody.
No, today's episode is from the podcast English Learning For Curious Minds with Alistair Budge.
Now, those of you with good memories and strong ears.
That's a bit strange.
Strong ears.
Oh, well,
those of you with good memories will remember that I did a collaboration with Alastair last year.
We wrote a story together on the podcast.
We went through the whole writing process and the end result was A Visitor from Chilly Bottom,
which was a really funny story about a penguin visiting London and trying to free all his penguin friends.
Well, this episode is not about penguins,
but it is about something very interesting, which is Banksy.
Banksy is possibly the most famous street artist in the world,
the most famous graffiti artist in the world.
I'm sure you've heard of him.
Banksy comes from the city of Bristol in southwest England,
and I grew up in Bath, which is very close to Bristol.
So I've seen a lot of Banksy artwork both in Bristol and now in London, where I live.
There was even an Art of Banksy exhibition around the corner from where I work in London last year.
