今年工作上迫切需要提升一下英语口语，研究一番，决定学习 EnglishPod，简单介绍一下目前的实践，抛砖引玉。

选择
最开始在 ESLPOD 和 EnglishPod 之间决定学习 EnglishPod 的原因是听了它的第一段的对话 “Difficult Customer”，觉得内容挺有意思的。后来愈发觉得它很接地气，每节课都在强调 “give you real English”，也正是我需要的。
下载
从 https://archive.org/details/englishpod_all 下载所有对话和文本。
主持人对话本文
用 Buzz 把 englishpod_xxx_pb.mp3 转录一下，得到主持人对话本文。
微信读书标注
Buzz 转录出来的文本导出成 SRT 格式，需要导入到微信读书里可以划线、标注或者查词翻译。
首先需要把 SRT 文本里的时间戳部分清洗掉，借助 ChatGPT：
jinhuaiyao@macbook EnglishPod % head -20 englishpod_0012pb.srt

00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,000

00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,000

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:14,000
That's right. We've got some excellent real English for you all about cleaning the house.
4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:18,000
Cleaning the house. That's a real life situation. So we're going to give you real English.
5
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:23,000
Exactly. So in today's lesson we're going to look at language about cleaning the house.
###
jinhuaiyao@macbook EnglishPod % cat srt.sh
#!/bin/bash
# This script removes numeric identifiers and timestamp lines from an .srt file,
# preserving the subtitle text and the empty lines that separate different blocks.
awk '
/^[0-9]+$/ { next; } # Skip numeric identifier lines.
/-->/ { next; } # Skip timestamp lines.
{ print; } # Print all other lines (subtitle text and empty lines).
' "$1"

./srt.sh englishpod_0012pb.srt > englishpod_0012pb.txt
