Hi.
This is to report a mistake in E3 – Networking – Small Talk 1 (Fiction) quiz episode
Indeed, according to the quiz ( answer 7) a good way to keep a conversation going is by insulting someone.
I agree but, as lawyers usually say, it depends :).

Thank you! I like this course. In particular I’m appreciating how you have contextualized the work on vocabulary and sentences and the gradual insertion of phrasal verbs.
