867. Multimodal Communication (with Nik Peachey) 

Hello! My introduction is quite long (but hopefully useful) - Interview starts at 22:37 👍 Leave a comment below and share your thoughts in English 📝

Luke, you are a sincere, open, positive-minded person towards people and the world. You have a sense of distance about yourself and a great sense of humor. Your podcast is a reflection of your personality. You pursue your passion, help others, and make the world a better place 🙂🌞

Luke, don't change your background! It makes your videos unique, cozy, homely and special. It’s always interesting not only to listen, but also to observe what is dear to you, and I think this brings you closer to your listeners🙏

Hi, Luke, here are my impressions. 1) The interview was great. I got used to your guest's voice after the first two sentences, and the quality of the recording didn't bother me at all. Nevertheless, I prefer your equipment because the sound on your podcast is just perfect. 2) Seeing the episode's title, I thought, 'What a bore'!. However, it turned out to be one of my favourite interviews you had. Your conversation was gripping and your reflections were very thought-provoking. I was inspired to implement changes in these modes of communication, which I apparently could do better. 3) It was a warning to be more cautious in dealing with people who want me to buy 'their commodities' such as opinions, beliefs, or other products of their minds. Many of them try to win us over to their beliefs and persuade us to support them. 4) I profited from this lesson at many levels: linguistically, intellectually, and socially. I learned a bunch of new words. It was a pleasure to listen to well-educated and articulate men. I became more aware of the dangers lurking in social media. I hope it will prevent me from being scammed or manipulated in the future. As for your question about the values you communicate, it's difficult for me to answer. What I can say is that I like your sense of humour. Even during that conversation, which was quite serious, I felt a smile on my face. You reach out to people who are different in so many ways. You discuss a variety of topics and meet dozens of people. On your podcast, everyone can find something that suits them most: chaotically rambling episodes and interviews when you keep to the point, intriguing stories and research on learning methods, world events, and a glimpse into your personal life. To sum up, I'd like to thank you for your work.

Hi luke! Dont change our podcast room !!!! No need for office like background. Stay unique and original as U are. The way U look and the room is also a language style message to listeners as Nick said and it is good so far. Do short story episodes too . Your recent one has over 2mln views you know. Best regards !🎉

I love the background of your Podcastle. Never thought it distracted me. I'd rather you leave it as it is. As for the values, it's just your personality, Luke, the way you are - so considerate and courteous with your guests, your sense of humour and your attitude to things - the value of your podcast is the content, very interesting and useful, and your personality. And your podcast is unique because you make it personal, and that's valuable. Thank you.

Hi, Luke! You definitely have a lot of listeners in Argentina. I'm one of them. Daniel's comment was really touchy. I agree with him. Your videos are absolutely helpful for us. Don't change your background, please. It’s really cosyand one day you could the play the guitar for us. Sing the song of the seven continents haha. I love it. Greetings from Argentina!❤

I watch your podcast daily. It could improve my listening and special for new migration person. Special on the conservation with someone.

What a good conversation between the two of you. It was very interesting. I could also understand Nick relatively well. Thanks Luke for all your good content.👍

Your way of teaching language Is very professional ,from very beginning your are great 👍your are ambassador of English language .Greetings from Poland.

Thanx Luke 🤩 ich lerne seit Januar 24 und habe bis jetzt nie offiziell english gelernt. Your Podcast is werry gut for me🙏

Hello! You are the best ! I can understand you a 90 % and it is absolutely wonderful. Is not the same with other native persons. I learned English in The Uk and in Argentina because I am from Arg,. I’d like be your friend! Ja ja ja! And your student as well! You encourage me to keeping improve more and more. Thanks a lot Luke! I admire you! Mabel di Michele

Hello, thank you for today's wonderful guest. Greetings from Poland. Ps. Your voice is really nice.

Luke, don't put a white curtain over your Podcastle, please. Pictures on the walls that have their own stories, books on the shelves arranged by colour, guitars that are your passion, plants in pots, a lamp that changes the background colours - all this adds warmth, coziness and the unique spirit of the place to which you invite your friends and us - LEPsters 😊

Hello Luke! What values do you communicate? You let's us know of the importance of learning without even noticing it. Human life is so complex! At the beginning of this interview I felt a little bit uneasy seen your eminent intervieweee standing. He knows why, but I wanted to offer him a seat. Thank very much for sharing such an interesting conversation!

Luke, I hope my message will find you. I am an Indian and often download around 10 episodes at a go and I listen to you while in my journey without looking at the screen 😅. Thanku man

One again,thanks a lot for all your help.❤

Great Podcast guest and very interesting conversation, Luke🤩 Need I add, as always? The topic of today's meeting and conversation with Nik Peachy reminds me of a saying we have in my native language: How they see you, that's how they write you. Our clothes, appearance, body language and tone of voice influence how we are perceived and understood by another person. It is very important to remember this and keep this in mind when we want our message to be properly received, not only in professional contacts, but also in private relationships. Thank you for the opportunity to watch and listen to your conversation. I had no problem understanding your guest, Luke. Have a nice, peaceful evening 🙂

The interview was great. Thank you very much.

Thank you for this marvelous podcast, it helps a lot for English learners from all over the world, I thoroughly enjoy every podcast that you upload. Not continent of Australia is Oceania

Hi, Luke, I'm a ninja coming out from years in the shadow to say like many other already did: do not put a white background. Being personal and authentic...also respecting you as a very qualified teacher is why I follow you. I follow you, not only for my English does not rust but improves, but to make sure that you and your family are doing well. And makes me happy to witness that. Many many thanks.

Extremely interesting conversation, Luke.

Besides the values you've mentioned (💯% agree with them) you inspire admiration and respect, you send a message of a person who really cares... Metaphorically speaking you're like those kings from history who ruled with kindness, responsibility and wisdom, very loved by their people. You're Luke the Great/or Luke the Wise😃under whose reign the LepLand is flourishing and the Lepsters are very fond of their king😃

And the topic of conversation was up to date. It is usefel to be aware of body language and nonverbal communication . I will tell my students to watch this episode. They learn how to prepare and give presentations and it will useful for them to consider all stuff discussed in this episode. Thank you a bunch

Hello Luke! Thank you for this wonderful video. In my opinion, like most of your subscribers, you have a very beautiful and unique room! You can change it if you want, but it's not necessarily. I think your talent doesn't depend on the environment you will be interesting even sitting in the bathroom.

You're professional and I like the way you communicate with your listeners. You like what you do and we love you! Thank you!

I got Nik's speech clearly.

Hi Luke, congrats on having achieved two million ears (my ones included) listening to your inspiring podcast. Amazingly done work! Thank you!

luke you have high theatrical skills when you read the short storys. this was another good lesson. thanks.

I love your guitars, especially the bass one. Don´t remove it. 😀

And don’t even think about stopping podcasting before you become a “RU-vid billionaire”!😁

Hi Luke, do not forget to keep teaching us English through stories and your perfect way of explaining vocabulary and grammar. I've learned so many things from your stories. So please try not to stop such videos

Hello luke, I am writing from Colombia, I like to listening to you, your contents are interesting and fun, thanks for all you teach us.

As you asked about value, I thimk you are a kind and generous person.

Thank you Luke. I decided to step away from the shadows and thank your effort to improve our english skills. Greetings from Spain.

Hello, I'm new🇨🇵&🇲🇬 and I really like following your podcast. It's helpful. Thank you and congratulations for your award. Keep going

All of him's videos are good, but I have to be honest, I will always preffer to watch a Luke's solo podcast...(or with his baby)...I don't know why, but I love to hear just him's voice😂 (and cute baby noises)

"Le roi est mort, vive le roi! Taking into account that you must be now in your thirties, I think 🤔 we could have"Luke English Podcast" for around another... let's say, fifty years, or so. Sincere congratulations 👏🎉 Luke for your 1 million subscribers (!!!) That's absolutely wonderful! And, hopefully, you'll continue with us, lightening our paths in the English language and the English culture for many, many years to come! Have a lovely day over there, on the banks of the Seine!

I really enjoyed this conversation Thanks a lot ❤❤

Thank You ❤ You're the BEST❤

❤❤

Hay Luke's ❤❤ how are you

Hi there!

Thanks sir

At first sight, I thought the guest was Cat Stevens (Singer), they are looking a lot alike. Thank you all by the way.

OMG. First I have listened this episode in podcast. And I thought Nick is a maximum 35-year-old man. He has a very young voice I can say.)

Thank you

🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅

Luke, as a student with 45 years old, studying English for business, my main difficulty is that all the teachers on RU-vid talk in 1st person or 3rd person when my main necessity, for example, is dialogues between 2/3/4 persons in meetings. This is what I have to study to talk in real situations. This is hard to find here on RU-vid. The most important part of a language for me is conversations, not monologues. Could you help us ;)

❤

Hi luke, I watch and listen to your pod casts a lot. It's really an awesome contribution... Recently I've come across with a grammar issue, Does she have...? Or Has she...? Different people have different views.... What is the correct use..?

Thank you, Luke, for this new episode. I am from Argentina too. I am sure that you have many followers in this country. I agree that sound quality is important but how can you explain that it is also hard to understand movies, lyrics, news channels, when listening to you is so clear?

👋

They should nominate iswearenglish man.He teaches fine too😊

Hello teacher 😊 I've been studying on passive and active gerunds recently. I'd like to ask you something if it is possible. Can I use these structures with past tense ? To give an example, can I say ' I was proud of having completed my assignment. ' Or ' Having eaten this traditional dish was amazing. ' Are these sentences correct ? If you answer my question, I would be very happy . Thanks in advance. Have a nice day .

Theory only. I paid more attention to what Luke was saying than to the guest, even though his scene had a white background. 1:05:25

❤❤❤❤

Hey ;Luke 👋

Really nice video! i was wondering if i could help you edit your videos and make them more engaging as well as create short content out of them.

Hello Luke, I'm writing from Kyrgyzstan and I am one of the English learners from your RU-vid channel. Your room decoration and background appear unique and cozy, so you don't need to change them. Honestly, I don't like your friend's background. It could be simple but should not be white in color. And one more thing, if he sits on a chair in front of the camera, instead of standing, it could be more efficient.

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

🍏

I didn’t count, but I think he said “you know” 999 times.

You're bees' knees!

Please, don't change the background in your room, I got used to it so much and it is so cozy.

Has no one noticed yet: YOU KNOW you know 😉😉

Hi 👋

Please make videos by using self help books

🤍🖤

Hi Luke, firstly having a background similar to yours provides depth of field for an image on a two dimensional surface. You have achieved this to some extent by taking the corner of the wall behind you. In fact, it is almost impossible to achieve a similar depth of field from a curtain or similar minimal background. In this case, if appearance is important, you need to use reflective things such as lights or mirrors. To be honest, Nik Peachey's shadowy background reflects an isolated space and amateur work, not a minimalist or professional look, and lacks credibility. I think multimodal communication can be seen as propaganda or a manipulative form of communication that can be noticed in the news, cinema or TV series. You don't need this attitude to attract more viewers, you already have it. First of all, your content is unique. If you had wanted to do this, I think you would have had to add British cultural elements to the background as well. From what I see, you reflect your personal life and personality a little bit, not too much. Your background at first glance suggests that you are doing something cultural and personal. Also, a certain colour balance may have been taken into consideration. And it's pretty good the way it is. In fact, I often treat your videos as podcasts. I mostly listen to them in the morning while making my coffee and stretching. But if I am sitting somewhere while listening, sometimes I lose focus on your conversation, I find myself staring at one of your background objects and imagining the story behind it that brought it to your wall. Visual objects allow me to do this. That's why it's good for me that some of them remain abstract, just hint at some feelings or impressions, and don't have a quite specific meaning. Thank you for reading 🙂

Sorry, but it's bobagem. Don't turn your good way in a doubt. 59:59

I don’t want to be rude but I did not get the message from this multimodal communication talk. To me it is just stating the obvious. I could not get what it offers new.

Hey luke, first congratulations on your million subscribers💐. N second thing will b long ( may b boaring) if i go in details about this podcast! so i will try to keep it short n simple.◻️this podcast was very informative n captivating , i've watched d full episode. ◻️Reply to few of yr questions as viewer is,yes yr podcasts do generating values in learner's life in many ways . About Nik peachi's views on why he choose plain white background was to keep viewers like me engaged with sheer attention on d info he wanted to share.so that maximum learner can b benefited from it. It has nothing to do with changing yr studio back grounds i guess. ◻️ btw if u really feel to change yr back grounds let me see it clearly🧐 as even in 1080 quality i couldn't read titles in cupboards except 'give it time' smt 'catch clash',.... ◻️luke it would b kind enough of u, if u could show me 'black n white coloured writing', next to blue painting of (moon n it's reflection on ground).i like d way u prepared yr studio background.. ◻️about todays topic on "multimodal communication"Nik has thrown some light on many important aspects of social media, n how it's visibility impacts on our mind, while watching or listening them n what questions should b arised like why? from whom n for whom etc. So overall i enjoyed it thoroughly . Thank u for d podcast n d award winning guest today.gn.
