170. Basking in My Moment of Glory / Vocabulary of Success & Failure

I won the competition again! I got a hat-trick! Thanks for your votes. I'd like to teach you some expressions related to success and failure in this episode. In this episode I'm just going to talk about it for a little bit, but I'm not just going to bask in this moment of glory, I'm also going to present and then teach some phrases to you. The phrases are all associated with success and failure. I'll also teach you some really common things you can say to someone who has won, or lost something.
