#565 Toxic McDonald's: Fast Food, Language & Corporate Power

The hosts guide listeners through practical phrases like ordering a kids' meal (menu dziecięce) and asking about toys, but repeatedly breaks the fourth wall to discuss McDonald's "toxic" aspects: low wages, processed ingredients, lobbying power, and its role in global health issues. The episode name-checks competitors (KFC, Subway, Burger King) and touches on institutional investors like BlackRock and Vanguard, framing language learning within a critique of American corporate culture exported globally.
