Transcript
Isi:
[0:23] Well, hello hello.
Mitch:
[0:27] Welcome to a time limited and critical episode of Easy English Podcast.
Isi:
[0:31] Yeah. So the situation is, we are sitting here, having exactly 25 minutes or half an hour to record, because we have our construction work going on and they are on a lunch break, now.
Mitch:
[0:48] It has this sort of, sound of an earthquake, doesn't it?
Isi:
[0:52] But I don't think you can hear that. So let's go.
Past Week's Episode
Isi:
[1:04] The Irish.
Mitch:
[1:06] Yeah. Brits' perception of the Irish. And before we get into it, I'd actually like to know; maybe you could write in, or send us a voice message via our easyenglish.fm website. What are your thoughts on the Irish? What have you sort of, learnt through TV and media? And have you met any Irish people? Have you been to Ireland?
Isi:
[1:25] I have been to Ireland. (Where in Ireland did you go?) Uh, it's long ago. 13 years ago. Yeah, I've been... oh, the workers are back, guys. If you hear something in the background, we'll just keep on going now, because, it's real life guys. We don't have a recording studio, we're just at home.
Mitch:
[1:49] Just imagine, it's like a sci-fi movie and Godzilla is approaching.
Isi:
[1:53] Whaa... oh no, sorry. Does he do a sound? Whaa...
Mitch:
[1:59] That sounds like a cat. (Okay.) An annoyed cat.

Intro
Mitch:
[0:26] Isi, Happy New Year.
Isi:
[0:28] Happy New Year! Ting... ting we are too far away from each other to bing.
Mitch:
[0:34] Make a toast, to the New Year. (To a better one.) No more shit things happening. Let's drink to no more... (Stop... stop the shit!) No more shit.
Isi:
[0:48] We actually, um, for everyone not seeing this, which is basically everyone, we actually, do drink sparkling wine. It is not New Year's Eve, we are, way into the year. But, we wanted to cheer with you on the New year 2023.
Mitch:
[1:04] So Isi, how... how was our new year?
Isi:
[1:07] Super exciting. It was actually really, really nice. Because, we decided to stay home. Um, which we actually really enjoy, anyway on New Year's Eves, because we're both not really into those New Year's Eves parties, where you have to have a ticket to go into a pub or club, oh God's that's horrible anyway. Um, home parties are good... are good, but yeah, we stayed home this year. And, we had... should I say... tell the whole story, yeah? Not much more to come anyway. We had good drinks, good cocktails. We had, um, like an Italian little buffet from our favourite Italian restaurant here, that was delivered to us. And we had good drinks and we talked to some friends. And yeah, it was a good night, wasn't it?
Mitch:
[2:00] I don't really remember much of it actually, but I'm not sure that's my bad memory or the cocktails.
Isi:
[2:04] Well, I will now do the super duper transition to our first category of today.
Mitch:
[2:10] Remind Mitch what happened on New Year's Eve.

Isi:
[0:24] Hello.
Mitch:
[0:24] Hi! (Hi!) Hi! (Hi!) New Year's energy... hi!
Isi:
[0:33] Hello. How are you?!
Mitch:
[0:35] We so sound like we're children's presenters. Hi! Do you like triangles?! I love triangles! Do you know how many corners they have?! Two?! Ha! You're stupid! They have three!
Isi:
[0:52] That's like morning show, radio host, from morning shows. (Oh yeah!) Good morning in the morning.
Mitch:
[0:59] Oh, yeah.
Isi:
[1:00] Where are you now? Are you in the car, on the way to work?
Mitch:
[1:04] Yeah. Good morning, you log-jammers on the M25.
Isi:
[1:07] Yeah. God... M25. The horror of my dad.
Mitch:
[1:12] Today is a great sunny day and if you're stuck in a traffic jam, this one's for you. It's 'Stuck in the Middle With You'. Shabba! I'm loving this radio voice, from last... the last episode we did, over enunciating voice.
Isi:
[1:27] That's probably because it's not my native language, but I can do a better radio host voice, in German.
Mitch:
[1:34] How do they... how do they do it, on German radio?
Isi:
[1:36] Should I do it now, in German? (Yeah.) Hello. No. Wait. I have to do it in... No... Uh, I have to go higher... wait, wait... not higher, but, more weird.... A bit like, always a bit like, haaaa...
Mitch:
[1:57] Yeah, it sounds like the microwave is on.
Isi:
[2:02] A bit like this high.
Mitch:
[2:05] I don't like that, creeps me out. (Hi.) Sounds like you're holding in a big poo. Hello!
