Would you consider it improper use of your show that I make my ESL students listen to segments every now and then? We all know school ruins all art... I can't help it, though, some episodes just cry out to be taught.

I will admit they have trouble with your segments... But in this day and age of the internet they have so many opportunities to listen to English speakers that it isn't all bad. Last winter, I was planning a lesson on the Mike Daisey show, and I swear, literally the day I was going to give it was the day I listened to your retraction. I nearly fell off my bicycle (yes, listening on the bike is bad, but I only use one earplug). In the end, I did both shows back to back and it was a total eye-opener for my 17-year-old-students; they suddenly started questioning every single text we'd dealt with.
