Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast!
*awkward silence*
Alright, what an opening!
I think that was a perfect opening right there.
Great! Fantastic!
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That was great.
You with your whatever song that was.
That was uh... Kevin's song.
Original!
Yeah.
We've got an original song up here.
We are.
And me with the self-echoing as always.
That was great. That was great.
I think that was a perfect echo right there.
Yeah, really good at echoing.
Thank you very much.
I think that was a perfect exhibition.
Professional.
Right.
Thank you very much.
*laughing*
Do I look darker today?
Oh, yes you do.
I do, don't I?
Yes, you do.
I thought so.
Yes, you do.
Because I was at my friend's house today.
Oh, really?
Doing barbecue on the rooftop of my friend's.
I think you've been there too.
Yes.
Same friend.
Yes.
Yes.
Right.
Yes.
And um...
Yeah.
My skin.
I've told you this before.
I've never told my audience, I think.
My skin is so absorbent.
Right.
Of the sunlight.
That it quickly darkens, right?
It tans so quickly.
Because you went today, right?
I went today.
You went today.
I went up in the roof for like, what?
Like, three hours probably.
Three or four hours.
I was up there for three or four hours.
I got tanned.
Three or four hours, that's it.
And I am so much darker, don't I?
You look like really like darker.
I know, right?
So my skin is like really easy to get tanned and very hard to get untanned.
Okay.
Right.
So I get darker and darker every day during the summer.
So get ready.
It's gonna be darker and darker every day.
The summer starts.
The sun shines.
Right.
I am gonna be like a fucking cockroach.
Right.
So get ready.
You're gonna be kind of invisible, right?
Right.
When I'm in the dark.
Right.
Freaking invisible.
Well, people, it's real, man.
For real.
For real.
Like no one can see you at night.
Remember my college years?
Yeah.
The days when I was out under the sun the most.
Like I was working at, what do you call those?
The umino-ie.
Right.
I was a part-time job there.
I hated that job, by the way.
Part-time job there.
I know you hated that.
I fucking hated that job.
I heard about that.
The people was fucking terrible.
It was terrifying for me to be there.
I never want to do that again.
Anyway, that's all I'm talking about.
I was under the sun so much during the college days.
Right.
And my skin was so much darker.
Right.
And I remember like going to like taking a photo with the circle, the circle gashiku,
right?
Right.
Group photo.
Right.
Group photo.
And I remember looking at the photo.
I was so dark.
I couldn't even see.
We were all laughing, right?
Right.
Right.
I remember those things.
It was only teeth.
I was glowing dark.
Incredible.
Right.
Incredible moment.
Legendary moment of my life.
But it starts again, right?
03:04
It's going to start again.
Get ready, man.
Okay.
Get ready.
It's really unbelievable that it was only three hours, right?
I know.
I wish, you know, I'm disappointed that podcast can't provide information visually.
You know, it's not getting read.
I know.
It's completely tan.
It's perfectly tan.
I put no sunscreen, no like tanning screens on, nothing.
Just natural skin.
I am very dark now.
That's unbelievable.
It is, man.
By the way, the friend's house.
Yeah.
It's Naruchan.
Okay.
Just shout out to Naruchan.
Shout out to Naruchan.
He's a career advisor.
You should check it out.
Narutoshi no Kageya Advise.
Advise.
That's the YouTube channel.
You should go check it out.
He's a very...
Family.
Right.
He's a good friend of ours and he does career consulting.
That's, you know, I think he's really good at listening to people's, you know,
Naomi, listening to people's career, what they should do, how to find passion.
He's really good at that.
You should check him out.
Just shout out for him.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Great time.
How was the barbecue?
The barbecue was great.
We bought a ton of meat.
Okay.
It was me, Naruchan, and one other friend.
Alright.
Three guys out on the roof.
Three guys.
With our tops off.
Oh, really?
Right?
That was great.
We were really hentai.
That's fucking hentai.
Yeah, but it's great.
It feels great.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And it felt good.
It felt really good.
I was always sweating a little bit.
Yeah.
The sun's on.
As usual.
Right.
As usual.
Yeah.
The sumidi.
Yeah.
It was great.
The smell was also good, too.
I think you should.
I think you can smell kind of like the coil right now.
No?
Yeah.
Okay, I guess not.
No.
That's okay.
That's good.
The meat is always good when you're...
Oh, really?
When you...
You bought at Hanamasa, right?
Yes, I did.
I know where it is.
That's where we bought it.
I went there, too.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We bought this huge steak.
I was like this big.
Oh, really?
It was like $3,000 or something.
Three thousand.
That's really big.
That's really expensive meat.
Three thousand dollars?
What the...
For lunch.
For three guys.
It's really...
We are from Richmond.
No, three thousand yen.
Sorry about that.
Three thousand yen.
Yeah.
It's not that expensive that I thought.
Right, right.
So the meat was good.
We had a great time.
I'm absolutely full.
Did you eat vegetables?
Yes, I did.
I ate bell pepper.
What?
Paprika.
Oh.
Piman.
Piman.
English word.
Piman.
Right, right.
Bell pepper.
That's what it's called.
Bell pepper.
Did you know that?
No, no.
I didn't know that.
Piman is bell pepper.
You shouldn't say like Piman.
Right.
Because P is like piss, right?
Piman.
06:00
That's the same thing as carpiz though.
Carpis in English is cow piss.
Cow piss.
Cow piss.
Oh, right.
So that's why they advertise it differently in the United States.
I have a carpis in the United States and they're advertising it differently.
I forgot what it was.
I think it was like white water or something.
I forgot what it was.
I don't know.
I forgot what it was.
It's probably not white water.
Yeah, but it shouldn't be called like cow piss.
Right, right.
Because, you know.
Okay.
I see.
It refers to something, you know.
Right, right.
White water.
Interesting, right?
So, what was I talking about?
Right, I had vegetables.
The bell pepper.
I had, what was it?
What was it?
Zucchini.
I always had zucchini.
I always had zucchini.
What's so funny about zucchini, man?
Well, is that...
Isn't it great having zucchini in your barbecue?
Yeah, I love zucchini, by the way.
Right.
I really love...
Right.
But, is that right pronunciation?
Zucchini.
Zucchini?
I think so.
Oh, really?
Zucchini, maybe.
I'm pretty sure that is Italian vegetable.
Oh, really?
Yeah, zucchini.
By the way, I'm very weak at vegetable vocabularies.
Oh, really?
I'm very weak at it.
Why?
Because the last time I was in the United States, it was middle school, right?
Okay.
I never talked about vegetables with my friends.
That was not the thing to talk about.
Like, if it was like a wrestling kind of thing, that was hot.
Then, if it was like a skateboard kind of thing, that was hot.
But vegetables, no.
We didn't talk about vegetables.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
I did talk a lot about vegetables.
Why?
With my friends when I was...
How do you carry out a conversation based on vegetables?
Let's talk about vegetables.
Yeah, let's do that.
Yeah, let's talk about bell pepper.
That happens?
Zucchini.
Does that really happen?
Yeah.
But like...
What was I talking about?
You're poor.
You're not good at vegetables.
Right, right.
And I didn't cook too.
Like, I was in middle school living with my family.
I didn't really cook.
I didn't have to go check, you know, the recipe and...
Right.
Go to the supermarket.
Right, reference which vegetable it was.
I didn't have to do that.
So, I'm very weak at vegetables.
Oh, really?
I know a lot of Japanese vegetable vocabularies, but not the English version.
I'm very weak at it.
Okay, okay.
By the way, I'm going to do a TikTok on English vegetables versus Japanese vegetables.
Check that out.
Oh, yeah.
That would be fun.
Yeah, it is.
That would be great.
Is that different?
It is.
Like, cutie.
Yeah.
What do you think cutie is?
Oh, cucumber?
Yeah.
Okay.
Thank you.
Yeah, I was supposed to ask a surprise.
One point.
It was like a surprise here.
How about, how about, how about, how about like...
What?
How about...
What is that?
What do you think squash is?
Squash?
Squash.
Squash is the name of vegetables.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's the name of vegetables.
Yeah, it is the name of vegetables.
It's very popular in Japan.
You know what it is?
Oh, I don't.
Go for it.
No.
Um, squash.
Must be something like free squash thing.
Uh, yeah, I think that, yeah, I think you're on the right track.
Hachima?
No, it is.
What is that?
It is a, uh, I know.
Kabocha.
Oh, it's kabocha.
Isn't that pumpkin?
It is also pumpkin.
But what it is, if it's a pumpkin, it's something that you, that you, that's like maybe something
09:03
like a Halloween kind of thing.
Oh, like shoes and orange.
Right.
If it's as a whole with the outer layer with it, that's, I think that's referred to as pumpkin,
but if it's used as squash, it's, it's cooked, right?
It's chopped and it's cooked in vegetables.
It's like mushirareteru or something like that.
It's right.
Okay.
It's, it's, it's, it under goes cooking.
Okay.
What is that again?
Squish?
Right.
That's a kabocha.
Oh, squash.
Okay.
One point lesson here.
I think that was like the very first time that we actually did like a, like a, like a
hardcore educational kind of podcast in this video.
And I think that's about 10 minutes.
Okay.
And thank you so much for listening guys.
Thank you so much.
Right.
And we'll see you in the next episode.
Bye.
Bye.
Let's do the, uh, the ending.
Let's go.
Thank you for listening to.
