Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast!
Hello!
This program is brought to you by Kimi no Koi wo Todoke wo Anchor.
It's an app that we actually use to create and distribute this podcast.
It's got all the features you need to start your own podcast program.
It's free, you can download it from the App Store or Google Play.
So please check that out if you're interested.
Nice.
There you go.
Yep.
Alright.
And you can send us voice messages through the application.
You say that's the most important feature.
This is the most important feature.
See, I don't know about that.
I just...
I think distributing and creating is the most important because it says it right there in
the document right there.
That's what you want us to...
They want us to say.
Yeah.
But...
Still?
Yeah.
Still.
And, you know...
Yeah.
Okay.
The actual...
The...
In reality.
Yeah.
We actually opened the box.
Yeah, the reality is...
Okay.
Yeah.
We...
I do want to say we are open toward to voice messaging.
Yeah, yeah.
We do want more of that.
That is true, yes.
You know.
We are getting DMs, which is text-based.
That's good too.
But audio-based is fun too, you know.
Yeah.
We get to hear their voices.
Yeah.
So it's fun.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Alright.
So this is from Megu-san today.
Megu-san.
The two messages.
Okay.
So maybe we can do the two...
Sorry, my voice is...
Sorry about that.
Yeah.
So we got two messages.
Yeah, I get that.
So we can...
Okay.
Okay.
I got it.
I got it.
I got it.
I got it.
I got it.
Sorry.
Sorry.
One here and the other the next episode.
Yeah.
That's what you meant, right?
Yeah.
Or maybe we can do those two messages at the same time maybe.
Sure, sure.
Okay.
So the first one.
Okay.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello, Mr. Yamachan.
Hello.
Hello.
The earthquake the other day was huge.
Did you get any damage?
No.
Hmm.
My hometown, Shimane, has almost no earthquakes.
So I was surprised by the amount of earthquakes after I moved to Kanto.
Yeah.
Hmm.
This time, the earthquake was the biggest one in my life.
I was really surprised.
Yeah.
You talked about your prevention of the earthquake in your podcast the other day.
What did you do during the earthquake?
When I was in the earthquake, I opened the door and secured the evacuation route.
I didn't think about what to do after that, so I just held on to the big vase so it wouldn't fall.
Please tell me about your actions during the earthquake.
I'd like to use it as a reference.
There may be some good things, so please be careful.
Oh, wow.
So.
Hmm.
I know you're a professional.
Yes.
Both sides.
Yes.
People.
Yes.
Yes.
So what did I do?
Yep.
I just sat there.
Yep.
I just sat there.
03:01
I don't know.
I just sat there.
I'm not going to lie to you.
Yeah.
I'm not going to lie to you.
I just sat there.
I just sat there.
You mean nothing?
Well, I did hold.
Hold?
I did, you know, push my tonsils against the wall so it doesn't fall.
Okay.
But I don't think you're supposed to do that on a very big, if it's a bigger earthquake,
you're not going to be able to, that's not going to do any difference.
So I just sat there.
Yeah.
The earthquake itself was really big.
So I know there's a place that the earthquake hits like really heavily.
Yeah.
And you know, but the place we were living in, you know, we were not that hit heavily,
actually.
I think it wasn't that.
Yeah.
Four or five shindo.
Yeah.
I think it was like that.
I think this was like four.
Four?
Yeah.
Yeah.
So it wasn't that big to us.
Right.
So we were kind of little calm.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We were pretty like, oh, another one of those.
Yeah.
Casual earthquakes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know if you can call that a casual.
Yeah.
Sure.
But like we were kind of like, it wasn't that surprising.
Yeah.
Kind of we were like getting used to having those earthquakes or especially the place
we're living in wasn't that heavily attacked this time, luckily.
Right.
So we were not kind of, you know, in panic or something.
Right.
You know.
The one thing I did do was I looked up.
What?
And I checked if there's anything that would fall on me.
Ah, that's important.
Right.
And then?
I just sat there.
Okay.
I just sat there like a weak duck.
I just sat there like a duck without the mother.
Poor dog.
But I didn't find anything that would strike me.
Sure.
That's important.
If there's something you need to get rid of.
Right.
Right.
You need to be prepared to protect yourself from something that would fall on you.
Yeah.
So, yeah, that's another thing I did.
06:00
But, you know, at the moment, the moment it's shaking, you're probably not going to be able
to like do much.
True.
True.
The first thing you need to do is just stay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Don't move, actually.
Right.
You stay it and, yeah, like you did, like hold something and stay it.
Yeah.
Right after the shake, I turned the TV on, get all the information I needed, see if there's
a tsunami coming, all that stuff, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Right.
At the moment, I was with my friends.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
And, you know, there's a couple of things that might fall out.
True.
In my house, actually.
You got lots of like freestyle plants right there.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So.
Those could fall.
They were like actually trying to fall.
About to fall?
Yeah.
They were about to fall.
So we were like pulled together everything.
Wow.
Yeah.
It didn't fall?
No.
That's good.
Because if that thing fell, it's a huge mess, right?
Yeah.
Like the carpet.
Yeah.
We're talking about the plants, by the way.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Plants.
There's so many plants on the like high shelf.
Yeah.
And also the cabin.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Filled with water.
Yeah.
Right on top of the piano.
Yeah.
That's a disaster.
Yeah.
That's a disaster.
So I have to think about that.
Yeah.
What if you spilled water on the piano?
What would happen?
I'm going to wipe it.
You just have to wipe.
Because it's going to...
No!
You're going to wipe it?
I thought you just let it get wet.
Yeah.
That would be the disaster.
If the water get into the piano...
It goes in between, right?
Yeah.
What do you have to do if you...
Well, you have to wipe it.
Yeah.
You have to wipe it.
Yeah.
You have to wipe it.
Yeah.
You have to wipe it.
Yeah.
You have to wipe it.
Yeah.
You have to wipe it.
You have to wipe it.
Yeah.
You have to wipe it.
Okay, tell me what you do.
Well, you have to, you know, put everything out.
Oh.
And wipe it.
Of course.
And make it dry.
Uh-huh.
And put it...
You can take the keyboard out?
Yeah.
Wow.
You know, when you do some choritsu, I don't know how you...
If you haven't...
No, I've never seen it.
You can bring everything out.
Dang!
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You can open this to...
Wow!
...a huge plate, and you can put everything out.
Wow.
Like piece by piece.
Okay.
Yeah.
So that's what you got to do.
Yeah, but once it gets wet...
Uh-huh.
...because all those things are made by wood...
Uh-huh.
...so the sounds will be changed.
Oh, shit.
You can't play as you should play, you know?
Shit.
So you never...
09:00
You shouldn't put...
...wood...
...board like this...
Uh-huh.
...up on the piano.
Wow.
You shouldn't do that.
Yeah, you shouldn't do that.
Yeah.
I don't know why you're telling me.
It's right there, man.
I have a...
It's not a relay from like Earthquake or anything like that.
Uh-huh.
How do you move these plants if you were to change houses?
Change rooms, right?
What would you do with that?
It's not going to fit in a cardboard box, right?
It's actually a really big problem, really big matter for those who love plants, actually.
Because those things you can carry.
Yeah.
You can put it in the box and you can carry it by yourself.
Absolutely.
But those big ones...
The big ass ones, right?
What?
The big ass ones?
Yeah, that big one, yeah.
Yeah, that's like this...
Yeah, that's huge.
This is really hard to move.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, actually, I don't know.
You can bring by yourself or put it into a special box, maybe.
Like...
Did you see that?
Did you hear that?
Did you hear that?
Sure.
Yeah.
Other than not fitting in the boxes, can it withstand all the shakes, all the shigeki's
that they got from in the car?
Also, when you do some professional hikkoshi, sometimes they spend night in the car.
Yeah.
They can do this.
They need water.
Yeah.
And they need some sunlight too.
That's true.
So, I don't still know how to move them.
Maybe I need to bring them.
True.
I mean, that's going to be a lot of work for you.
Yeah.
That's a lot of plants.
I'm actually growing a plant myself right now.
What kind of plant?
Takano Tsume.
That means pepper.
Pepper.
The red one.
Yeah.
It was...
Takano Tsume.
Takano Tsume pepper.
You put the seed in it.
Yeah.
I actually received it as a gift from one of my viewers.
And it's like a gacha-gacha.
Yeah.
You know, it's a gacha-gacha that it's a random...
You don't know which seed you get.
Right?
And I was received the one with the Takano Tsume.
Yeah.
It's...
It leaved.
Uh-huh.
12:00
It...
Sprouted.
Oh, nice.
I don't know what you...
How do you call that?
It...
It...
It sprouted.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
It...
It sprung.
Yeah.
I don't know how you say it but yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Um...
Nice, nice, nice.
Do you have to...
Like...
How do you...
Like it said on the paper that like when it gets big enough you have to change...
Yeah.
The...
To the like base.
Like a bigger one?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
When does that...
When do you have to do that?
Uh-huh.
That means...
Uh...
It's about the root.
The important thing is root not the leaf thing.
Okay.
So you can see the root.
Yeah.
And if it's like...
Like fully grown...
Uh-huh.
Then you need to put it out and change into the different like bigger one.
Got it.
But I guess it's just like born, right?
Just a little, yeah.
It's the most sprout.
Then right now you don't need to worry about that.
But how big is the one right now?
The vase, it's like this tall, this thick.
Ah.
Well, I guess that's fine.
And the green is like this big.
Yeah.
You can wait.
I can wait.
Because if you move to like really big one...
Yeah.
Like too early...
Yeah.
Then the amount of the soil is too much.
Then it contains so much amount of water.
Yeah.
And that leads the plants to be rotten in the root.
Okay.
So...
Got it.
Yeah.
All right.
You can't give them too much water?
No.
Well, it depends on the plant.
Got it.
But basically, yeah.
All right.
Got it.
I got to be careful.
That's a difficult thing.
Yeah.
I still don't know the...
Perfect.
Yeah.
It's difficult.
Timing and everything.
Yeah.
Okay.
Thanks for listening, guys.
