Harp: Yes. So today we’re gonna talk about parties.

Maura: Yay! I love parties.

Harp: Me too. And I love how many parties there are during the Christmas season.

Maura: That’s right. There are so many parties. There are Christmas parties, parties for New Year’s as well, and really all kinds of other holiday parties.

Harp: Yes. So today we’re gonna break it down by first talking about different types of parties.

Maura: And then we’re going to talk about planning parties. And to be honest, it’s mostly Harp who’ll be talking and I’ll be asking the questions.

Harp: Yep. And then we’re gonna talk about expressions with the word party in them.

Maura: Yes. You heard right. This episode is all about partying.

Harp: Let’s get started.

Maura: All right. So first we’re going to talk about different kinds of parties.

Harp: Yes. So obviously, this is the holiday season, so you have a holiday party.

Maura: That’s right. There are lots of parties at this time. There are parties with family and there are parties with friends.

Harp: And I would say almost every company has some sort of a work holiday party.

Maura: Yeah. I know my family always gets together around Christmas and most of my family gets together for other holidays too, like Thanksgiving and Easter.

Harp: Yeah. Same thing for my family. We have a lot of parties during the holidays.

Maura: Oh, really. Usually, my mom and my dad’s families, they just have one big party with everyone who’s invited.

Harp: Yeah. I see a lot of people doing that.

Maura: Yeah. It makes sense because everyone is together. Everyone gets to see each other at the same time.
