Welcome to Creative Language Learning Podcast episode 56, with our popular roundup of this season's hottest language learning resources and tools.

Pop Culture Moment

Lindsay has been watching Terrace House, a Japanese reality tv show.

I found Bore Da, a Welsh breakfast show that displays key vocab right on the screen. Its app even gives you individual items with associated vocab lists.

Anyone remember pop-up video? How could would it be to have pop-up vocab video?!

And now for the top tools

Grab your sunglasses, get out into the sunshine, and try these brand new language learning resources. This season, we're not all about online learning anymore as you'll hear how Lindsay and I are applying our best tips outside too.

1) Prettier Notes

2) Clozemaster

Play the game at www.clozemaster.com

3) Charity Shops and Library Sales

And here's what's awesome too.

Subasub and Subscene

Advanced geeks can even create their own Anki cards using the subtitles on offer (we saw a talk about this at the Polyglot Gathering, but it kinda went over my head -- learners.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=1580&start=80&hilit=substudy">if you want to go for it, start here.
