Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast!
Yay! Welcome!
You were looking at the DMs, I saw you going through the DMs, and you suddenly started laughing.
Yeah.
Just burst out laughing.
Yeah.
And I was like, "What's up man?"
And you're like, "Okay, let me tell you later on the podcast."
And here we are, getting ready to...
Alright.
Okay, show me what it is that you were laughing about.
This is really funny.
Okay.
This is from Megu-san.
Megu-san, okay, thank you.
Thank you Megu-san, as always.
She sent us a message about, uh, I mean, your outfit.
Oh, that's nice! Right, thank you.
The podcast is called "Kevin-san's Fashion".
Thank you.
"Every day, I really enjoy your podcast."
Appreciate that, thank you so much.
"How is Kevin's trying of new fashion style going?"
"I like Kevin's shirt style."
Thank you!
"So how about Lou's fitting shirt style?"
Okay.
Okay.
"I'm looking forward to seeing your new fashion style."
Okay.
So, that's her message.
Thank you.
And she's, like, sending us a picture.
Okay.
Which is...
Which is...
*laughter*
How nice!
It's so cute!
It's so nice!
*laughter*
So, um, it's a...
It's a collage photo of my face on several different styles of outfits.
Right.
I just...
The face is cut out, and it's placed on other fashion pictures.
About, like, nine or ten outfits.
*laughter*
This is so cute and funny.
It's pretty funny.
I like how she chose some of, like, the aggressive faces.
Yeah, I got him.
Those aggressive faces are really nice there.
I got him shouting around with shopping bags.
He's walking around the street just shouting.
I need to post this.
Yeah.
I need to post this so people can see it.
*laughter*
It's so funny.
Which one do you think fits me the most?
Ah...
This one, obviously.
This? That one?
That one.
That's pretty aggressive, man.
Really?
That's pretty, like...
Really?
For me, so for my...
I would do, like, I think...
This one? This one right here?
Yeah.
This is pretty cool.
Like, it's cool, though.
It's like you.
You have this shirt, and you have these pants, and you know...
I haven't changed.
It's cool, but it's you, kind of.
Right, right.
How about, like...
03:00
How about, like...
What about this style?
Yeah, this one, I think I...
I think this is me, too.
Oh, really?
I think I have these kind of shorts, and I think I do kind of have these shirts.
This is definitely me, these two.
Yeah, right, right.
But, you know, the length of the pants...
Ah, yeah, right, right.
But, like, they're shorter than your usual pants, right?
Exactly.
Exactly, exactly.
What about, like, this one or this one?
Yeah, I think that could...
I don't have these kind of, like...
It's a little new style.
My t-shirts are all Muji, right?
I don't have any, like, pictures on them, or like...
I don't have anything on them, so like...
Yeah, that's a new field, right?
That could be something I could try.
Um...
This one's more of like a suit-ish kind of, right?
It has that sleek kind of suit-ness to it.
Yeah.
Which is also great, I think, you know.
So I think it's great.
Right.
Like, they all look great.
Right, right.
Like, with the pictures, with the visuals, like, it's really easy to understand, like,
what kind of things that I want, and like, what may or may not look good.
Right.
So this is really like a...
This is really good.
Yeah.
It fits you, like...
They all...
Fits you.
Thank you.
I mean, at least your picture.
Right.
Right.
Which one's your favorite?
Hmm.
If it was you, like you.
If it was me?
Yeah.
Okay.
If it was me...
If it was me...
I would prefer this one.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Very dark tone.
A little bit suit style.
Right.
Like, jacket and pants.
Yeah.
I like this kind of style.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That looks nice.
What about you?
I mean, I would go for...
Like I said, this one.
Mm-hmm.
I think this one looks the coolest.
The one with the half shirt tucked in.
Right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
You can do this, like, tomorrow.
I can.
I can do this tomorrow.
Yeah, it'll be great.
You know, but like, the half shirt tucked in is a really challenging one.
Really?
Because you get mistaken with like, "Oh, did he forget to tuck that in after he went to
the toilet?"
Kind of.
That situation is like a similar one.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's difficult.
Right.
And you have to carry your...
Exactly.
Exactly.
That's tough.
I like hands-free situations.
Yeah.
Right.
So, how am I going with the new outfit?
It has not excelled.
06:02
It has not...
I haven't found anything good.
Okay.
I think the last time we talked was the...
Right now, the same.
It hasn't changed.
Okay.
So, yeah.
Okay.
I am still looking for it though.
Yeah.
Like, you're still trying to try a little loose.
Yeah, I am.
I am.
A relaxed style.
Right.
It's just that I haven't been able to go to the Uniqlo and try on different clothes.
See, Uniqlo is not the solution.
There are so many, like, bunch of other shops and brands.
For example, okay, let's say you go to Beans, right?
Okay.
Beans is the very famous one, right?
Yeah.
It's obviously one of the choices that could come in.
But, like, you know, it's just...
With Uniqlo, you can go in the fitting room.
You can go in the fitting room, just go out without anybody being talked to.
Really?
There is one...
They talk to you?
Yeah, like, "How many points do you get for wearing this?"
Oh, right.
That's it, right?
Yeah.
But they don't really care about the outcome of...
Right.
If it fits you or not, right?
Right.
So, like, "Do you want to try Beans or something?"
After you try it on, they come to you and they talk to you about it, right?
Which makes me very...
So, they come at me with the expectation of, like, "Oh, this person must be looking for these kind of pants."
Yeah.
And they try to talk you through with the mentality of, like, "That's what he's looking for."
But, like, from my perspective, I'm just trying out new things.
Right?
I'm just tasting new things.
So, like, I'm not...
Maybe I might be into or might not be into this fashion, and it's probably going to take longer.
Yeah.
So, like, in the middle of me trying to decide if this style will fit me or I'm comfortable or not, they're going to be like, "Oh, do you want to try it on?"
I'm kind of, like, pressured into, "Okay, let me... All right, I got to deal with them."
So, it's a little bit inconvenient for me.
Okay.
Yeah.
So, like, the shops like Uniqlo is much better than, like, selected shops?
Yes, because of the less interaction with the employees.
Okay.
That's the reason.
I would just go to those select shops and ask them if this balance goes well with me or, like, what about... Can you propose some new styles?
Right.
Because they're professionals, so...
09:00
That's a good idea.
That's actually a really good idea, yeah.
That is.
But you don't like those conversations?
If only if I, you know, muster up the energy.
Okay.
But that has to happen first.
Okay.
I can't just be like, "Oh, I have some free time.
Let me just... Let me just peek around.
Let me just stroll around the place and look for a new style."
Like, that...
Okay.
I can't.
Okay.
I can't talk to them.
I just have to be like, "Today, I'm going to do this.
Tomorrow, I'm going to go to Beans, and then I'm just going to ask an employee for a new style."
Oh, wow.
I have to do that first.
Okay.
So, like, it's... Yeah.
It's a little...
Much more engineering-consuming.
Hustle.
Right. Exactly.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
So, your journey is...
Still continuing.
Okay.
Yes.
Thank you.
Thanks, Russell.
All right.
And thanks for the pictures.
Oh, yeah.
That was really nice.
Yeah, that really cracked us up.
Yeah.
All right.
Thanks for listening, guys.
Bye-bye.
