“We do not learn from experience.                

We learn from reflecting on experience.”

 PART I.   My own favourite:   https://www.ezslang.com/

You can not find conversation opportunities, i hear you say....There is fat chance of improving your spoken performance if you do not SPEAK at home, alone. Give it a go.

 PART IV.    FROM Randall's  dozen  favourite ones:

• With my oldest daughter: First Date - This is one of the classics on my site. I loved creating it. It reflects my concern and (overly)-protective nature for my daughter's safety when dating.
• 
  
• With my brother: Car Repairs - It highlights my fears of cars breaking down on long tips.
• 
  
• With me and myself: Just a Haircut, Please! - It is one of the few recordings in which I play both parts of the conversation.
• 
  
• With me and my wife: Running Shoes - It reminds me to always be completely honest with my wife. Honesty strengthens relationships.
• 
  
• With the family: Space Radio Theater - It is the only recording in which four of our family play parts, and it was written by our son, Josh.
• 
  
• With me and my wife: Alcoholics Anonymous and Drug Addiction- These highlight serious health and social issues. Suicide Prevention is another topic close to my heart, since our own son, Joshua, died by suicide in 2012.
• 
  
• With the my youngest son: Enjoying the Zoo - It contains a completely unscripted conversation with my youngest son --- a conversation with the youngest person ever on my site.
• 
  
• With me sleeping: Homestay in the USA - A puppet show with me sleeping through the entire conversation.
