Learning English Podcast - Small Plastic, Argentina Inflation, Hypersonic Weapons

Dan Novak and Ashley Thompson host today's Learning English show.
First: Ashley Thompson and John Russell report about new findings on the presence of extremely small plastic particles in bottled water.
Next: Argentina’s yearly inflation increased to 211.4 percent in 2023, numbers released recently by the government show. It is the highest rate in 32 years. Gregory Stachel reports.
Then: Bryan Lynn presents the LE Science and Technology Report. North Korea announced earlier this week it had carried out a test of a hypersonic weapon attached to a missile. Bryan explains what these weapons are, how they differ from others, and what North Korea and other countries might do with such weapons. After the report, Bryan and Dan Novak discuss how missile defense systems might be changed to better detect hypersonic weapons.
And finally: The LE Lesson of the Day. Andrew Smith and Jill Robbins base their instruction on the LE video series Let's Learn English, Level 2. Do you wish you could speak English better? This lesson will help you use the word "wish" now, then, and in the future!
Dan and Ashley close the show.
