Welcome to Tom's English Room podcast!
We are very hungry!
Yes, we are!
Thank you for making... what was this called again?
It's a bongole.
Rosso, right? With the tomato.
Itadakimasu!
Mmm!
The garlic!
Yeah!
The garlic, man!
Good!
Mmm!
Wow! Great clam!
Yeah!
Very soft? Very, very soft!
Creamy!
Mmm!
I never thought that clams are creamy.
Mmm!
You can add salt if you prefer the strong taste.
I'll try a little salt.
Yeah!
Mmm!
Like, since I'm gonna be placing an espresso machine in my new house...
Yeah?
I'm planning on reducing sugar.
Wow!
You're planning to reduce the amount of sugar?
The sugar intake.
But why is that? Like, is that...
Yeah, I know about that, but is that concerned about the espresso machine?
No.
I feel like if my body is in the mood for espresso, like, if I consume an espresso, I think my body mood would not be as sugary as I am right now.
Right?
I feel like taking in espressos would change my desires.
I hope so.
That's what I'm planning on doing.
Right? It's better to act on it than not doing anything.
Yeah.
Mmm!
Mmm!
How's your new business? We shouldn't talk about this.
03:06
We can't.
Um...
So, I got to a place where I've decided what I'm gonna do.
Mmm?
I'm going to provide an A-Tile service.
Yay!
Hooray!
So...
Oh, great.
I have not started opening up my business.
Like, I'm still creating my website, creating the product itself, like the price and how long it will be.
Like, is it going to be on a Zoom meeting or is it like actual meeting or something like that?
Mmm-hmm.
But...
I will definitely...
I'm going to start accepting in customers from like...
This month.
Right? During November.
But, uh...
That would be great.
Yeah, so...
So, I can speak to you.
Have a conversation with you.
Yes.
In English.
Mmm.
No Japanese?
Like, any of us?
Like, if it's a group lesson, I feel like it's a little bit difficult because there's other people who want to speak English.
But, like, if it's like a one-on-one kind of lesson, Japanese is accepted.
Okay.
So, we can ask you some questions?
Of course.
But, like, if it's like a really, like, English kind of question, if you want to educate yourself in English...
If you want to educate yourself in...
If the question...
Will be more efficient if it's done in Japanese, of course, Japanese are accepted.
But, like, free talk in Japanese is not... I don't think it's suitable for in a group lesson.
Right.
We saw something that...
Meet with you, it's just English lesson.
Right.
Like, English speaking lesson.
Right, right, right.
It's an English speaking service.
Right.
Not something that we can have conversation in Japanese.
Mmm.
But, if it's like a one-on-one lesson, I think that's acceptable.
Yeah, yeah.
If it's one-on-one, then it's not a "meiwaku" to the other user, so...
Yeah, and you created your own account, huh?
06:00
Yes.
How's that?
Yeah, it's great, it's great.
I think I can...
I was able to post out more of my personal life, which wasn't really suitable, which is not...
Has nothing to do with English.
I think I can express myself better there.
Yeah.
Without the English kind of barriers.
So, that's an upside.
Being able to directly speak to people.
Yeah.
And the DMs and the comments, that's an upside too, of course.
So, yeah, doing great with it.
Go check it out, guys.
Yeah.
There's links on my...
On the Kevin's English Room official Instagram page.
So, right.
And Kake-chan's too.
Kake-chan has his own ones too.
So, make sure to check that out too.
Yamachan, do you have your own account?
Like, I...
Yeah, several.
I have several.
My account, so...
I'm running like three, four accounts.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
That's a lot of Instagram accounts?
Yeah, I do.
You do?
Yeah, like, I'm an Instagrammer, so...
Right.
Yeah, professional one.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
What kind of content are you posting out?
You know, like cosmetic things.
Oh!
And tree pictures, you know?
Cosmetic things?
Yeah, and then...
Selfie?
Yeah, selfies.
Selfies of, like, beautiful bees?
Selfies?
Yeah, like this thing.
I mean, I've never seen that too, so like...
Oh, really?
Yeah, I'm kind of surprised that you...
I'm kind of famous on that.
Really?
In the industry.
Yeah.
Oh, seriously?
Like, like...
120 million subscribers.
120 million?
How big is that?
That's pretty big.
Oh, really?
That's very big.
Then I'm famous more, you know?
That's like globally big.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
120 million, right?
Yeah.
Globally.
That's global size, man.
Oh, okay.
Thank you.
Yeah.
I don't think, like, Kikakin has that many.
What are you doing?
The clams are so good.
The clams, man.
Yeah.
The butter on the clams.
Amazing.
Well, actually, clams are really easy to cook.
Really?
Actually.
It has to be fresh, but, you know, you can buy that at the supermarket, anywhere.
What do you think would happen if I eat this whole thing?
You would die.
Honestly, I don't eat.
I'm going to try one.
Wow.
Do you have milk?
No.
No.
Okay.
I have no lifesaver then.
Okay.
But I'm going to still try them.
Okay.
But, you know, that's still...
How's that?
It's already cooked.
And maybe all the spiciness is gone already.
Right now I'm feeling a little bit of the spice.
09:01
Okay.
Just a little bit, though.
Okay.
Fine.
But I'm afraid it might come.
Yeah.
It's coming.
Yeah.
It's coming.
But...
Fine.
I think it's leveling down.
Okay.
Yeah, I think it's...
I think I'm okay.
All right.
Then the spiciness is gone.
I got through this.
It's gone.
It's gone.
It's gone.
It's gone.
It's gone.
Yeah.
I mean, the clams.
Yeah.
You love that.
You can put the cut up here.
Thank you.
The clams.
Yeah.
It's actually not that, like, expensive, actually.
It's not that expensive?
Like, not that expensive.
And you can buy anywhere.
I'm afraid it's a little bit troublesome to cook.
No.
But you have to put these...
Put them into the salted water beforehand.
But...
Otherwise, the "jari jari" is going to be there.
So can you...
Is that bad for your body, the "jari jari"?
No.
It's just your own preference.
Right.
I don't like "jari jari" having in my mouth.
Mm-hmm.
You know.
So if I'm lazy and okay with having "jari jari"s in my mouth, then I just...
It's okay to skip the whole step.
Yeah, if you want.
Good.
And also there are some clams that are already "suna nuki"sareteru.
Mmm.
Clams are at the supermarket, so you can buy that.
Why is it that if you put it under salt water, it releases "jari jari"?
Well...
Because they are living in a sea, so it's...
In that environment, they will "breeze".
Breathe?
Oh, right.
Like, "breeze"?
"Breeze"?
Breathe.
Breathe.
So when they breathe, they will happily take "jari jari" inside of their body.
So if they breathe, the "jari jari" will go out naturally.
Mmm.
So it's like a circulation.
Yes, yes. Circulation.
Got it.
So you have to prepare the same...
Like, "san percento"gurai no shiyomizu.
Same as ocean.
So if it was just like a normal water, unsalted water, they would feel like they're not at home.
Right.
And be...
Well, maybe they will die, maybe.
Maybe they'll die.
Is it bad if they die?
Yeah.
Not...
It wouldn't taste as good.
Like, you know, it's not tastily bad.
Uh-huh.
Well, it won't.
But also, it's bad for your body if they die.
Oh.
Like, there are so many "kin".
Oh, I see, I see, I see.
So if they're dead, you shouldn't eat.
12:01
Got it, got it.
Okay.
Yeah.
Well, thank you for the dish.
That was very good.
Very tasty.
Oh, thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
And thanks to the clams.
Thanks to the clams.
Thanks.
Thanks for opening up to the world.
Yeah.
I'm happy to see you have your wings fly out.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
Very "kaihoteki".
Yeah.
Open.
In your cocoon.
They were in their cocoon.
And they'd be like, opening up their world, right?
Yeah.
Now they're free.
Oh, great.
That's a great way to end.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Bye bye.
What a sad story.
