This is the companion podcast to On Track Episode 2: the second day of the race, starting in Milan. The episode itself is on the Coffee Break Languages YouTube channel, and it's best to watch that first. We talk about how the day went, so be aware there will be spoilers!

Pablo tells the story of day two from Team Green's side, in a short Spanish text written for learners. In Milan the teams have four minutes to find ten handbags in a packed Galleria, then write a short play outside La Scala. We read it through, talk about the language in it, then read it again, so by the end you'll understand every word.
Pablo uses "parecer pan comido", to look like a piece of cake, and "sacarse la espina", literally "to pull the thorn out": it's what you do when you put right a disappointment that's been nagging at you.
