Text In this podcast, the phrase "to keep up with" means to know or to be informed about certain issues or trends: "It's so hard to keep up with the news around the world when you don't read the newspaper everyday." It can also mean to physically stay at the same pace, or speed, as others. For instance, if you are walking with a group of people and you are walking more slowly than everyone else, you could say, "I'm having trouble keeping up with you guys. Slow down!" This phrase can also be used in other situations where you are having difficulty understanding or learning something: "This professor talks so quickly it's hard to keep up with what he's saying." Or, "Can you explain that again? I'm having trouble keeping up with your arguments."
