Hello fellow Żubry!
The other day I found this website, and I thought
that I would share it with you all. It is designed for Poles seeking to find legal Internet sources for books,
movies, music, etc. and it appears to have a quite a long list of useful websites. Much of the material is free of
charge. In particular, I've found nice e-book versions of classics here.

I stumbled across Kabaret Hrabi and really enjoy watching their stage performances.
For example "Woman and Man" [Kobieta i Mężczyzna], which is divided into 17 manageable clips.
Great humour.
Thanks Chung for your regular updates. How are the other bison doing?

Lazy period here. Definitely, I must do a lot of grammar exercises. I found out I still can't confidently use the right endings with pan/pani!
In any case, I recommend the book Wsród Polaków for those who need to refresh or polish up their Polish. I don't recommend it to total beginners, in any case. The learning curve is too steep, if Polish is your first Slavic language.

Hi OCCASVS, great to hear from you.
I'd strugge with all the pan/pani declensions myself!
I did consider buying Wsród Polaków (Books 1 and 2), but I already possess numerous course books that I've bought over the past few years and have yet to start.
Good luck with your grammar exercises!

Bakunin here, doing fine. I read and listen to Polish almost daily, 30-60 minutes on average, staying far away from anything that reeks of grammar or vocabulary study. I have no other goals than time spent with the language, so I'm relaxed and quite happy with my progress. I'm going to spend a few days mountain-biking in Poland's south-easternmost part later this month, and I'm really looking forward to exploring this part of otherwise flat Poland :)
Thanks, Mooby, for keeping the bison together!
