Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast!
Is that on? Is there a microphone?
Oh, I'm just gonna do this because we're gonna go a long way.
I'm gonna rip the audio.
The one that I hate, right? I hate ripping the audio from the video.
Because we just had an hour of this audio problem
and we had three guys from...
Three professionals, you know?
Three professional guys from Amazon.
Amazon Studio to work on our podcast audio.
And even with that, we couldn't figure out.
We couldn't figure out why this audio fucker was happening.
This little "uh-uh-uh-uh" thing.
Couldn't figure it out.
I mean...
They did give us some solutions.
Yeah, they gave us solutions.
They thought so many things.
They are so kind guys.
Unbelievable, unthinkable solutions that they gave us.
One was like using two mixers at the same time and connecting everything.
That was the solution.
Now we can't go home anymore.
We can't record the podcast ever at home.
We're gonna need to buy another mixer or something.
Yeah, but the solution was like buying new cables, right?
Right, buying another cable.
Buying a converter.
We could look for that. We could go look for that.
By the way,
today is Tsuji-san's birthday!
Happy birthday, Tsuji-san!
Happy birthday!
He's right there. He's over there.
Outside the room.
And we bought him a Starbucks gift card!
I try to think of other gifts.
Like what?
Something that I shouldn't say publicly.
That's a meter.
I guess those are the same things.
But I guess...
Why take the risk?
Why take the risk?
Because maybe he will take some pictures and publish to the Twitter.
That's gonna be a problem.
I don't want people to think that we bought that kind of a gift.
Yeah, I like those.
Bad presents.
Like a joke.
As a joke.
Right, right, right.
It's meant for him, right?
It's personalized.
I like that too, but I thought...
But I think it's a good gift.
He loves sweets.
He loves desserts. He goes to Starbucks often.
He always drinks, you know,
kind of sweet frappuccinos.
Chocolate.
So we are going to Tsuji-san right now.
And we're gonna give him the present.
And it's gonna be all recorded.
03:00
So it's gonna be great.
So let's go?
Let's go.
Let's go to Tsuji-san.
I hope it's not a meeting or something.
True.
I think I've heard him say "Otsukaresama desu" or something like that.
I felt like he was in a meeting.
Yeah.
Alright.
Oh, yep. He's on a phone call.
Okay.
He's calling.
Is he?
I mean, isn't he nodding?
Maybe he's just listening to some music and nodding like this.
Maybe.
Yep.
He's on a phone call.
Okay.
Oh, man.
I wonder what time he...
Yeah.
Oh.
I like his hair, but...
I like, yeah, I do love his new hair.
Do you think we can show him?
Yeah.
No?
We finished?
Meeting, Tsuji-san.
Okay, okay.
What time is it?
20 minutes after the long-awaited show.
Alright.
Alright.
So, I guess we're just gonna have to do it on the next episode?
Yeah, let's go.
Alright.
Man.
And we're also gonna...
Yeah?
...host a barbecue, right?
Yeah.
We're gonna look at some barbecue places for him.
Yeah, Tosh loves barbecue, but...
He kept repeating, right?
Last time we met, he kept saying,
"I wanna go to a barbecue."
I haven't done barbecue this summer.
I feel like doing it.
Wow, and next week's my birthday.
Have you done the barbecue this summer?
And we're like, "Oh, no, no, no, no, no, not this year. We haven't done it."
Wow, okay. Wow.
That's good.
Oh, by the way, we're both doing this next week.
Right.
Birthday barbecue. What a combination.
Yeah.
Such a great combination.
Wouldn't that be joyful, guys?
Yeah, let's do that.
Yeah.
Man.
Tsuji-san's got a new hairstyle now.
He's got a new haircut.
Which is so cool to me.
Yeah, I mean, he's...
I feel like he's more of a celebrity.
He's more of a...
More of a on-camera guy.
You know?
Yeah.
He takes care of his clothes, hair, fashion.
06:02
True.
Than we three.
Than us three, yeah.
I think he's more well-fined.
Well, like, he's tall.
Yeah, he's...
He's got like, really tiny head.
I know, right?
You know, brilliant face.
I wonder why he wouldn't do modeling.
Yeah.
I would hire him.
I would hire him as a model.
Walk down that aisle.
Yeah.
That walking shed that they do.
I would hire him.
Yeah, he wears, you know, always...
Kind of...
Great clothing.
Yeah.
He's very...
Very fashionable.
So always, like, in the studio, he, you know,
Tsuji-san welcomes us.
And, you know, he...
We, you know, three all together come to this.
It's a fourth floor.
Third floor.
Every time I feel like he is the talent.
Yeah, I know.
And we are the managers.
The aura that he's got, you know?
Yeah.
We do look like the manager.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's way taller than we are.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You should check out his shoes.
Do you know the shoes that he has?
That, like, spiked shoes.
Yeah, I know that one. That's so crazy.
So, guys, he's got this spiked shoes.
Yeah.
Do you know what brand it is?
I thought he told me that was...
Bubudan.
Which is there, you know?
A very expensive brand.
Yeah, yeah. That one.
It's got spikes on the...
On the front end of the shoe.
Ikatsu.
It's so ikatsu. Very ikatsu.
Yeah.
But, yeah.
It looks good on him.
It does look good on him.
That's what's amazing.
If I wear it, I don't think
it would look good on me.
You can wear that. You can try that.
I don't think I would look...
Really?
You can try that.
Okay, I can try.
Let's try. I'll try on
Tsuji-san's outfit.
See how bad it would look
good on me.
Yeah.
Alright.
So, I guess on the next
episode, we'll go ahead
and give Tsuji-san
the presents and see how he likes it.
Yeah. I hope he, you know...
He'll be happy, you know?
Yeah, I mean... What do you
expect for him?
Alright, let's...
How about this? How about we both guess
what his first words are?
Okay.
Whoever guesses right wins.
Alright.
Mine.
Ah!
09:00
Ah!
Ah!
It's my guess.
Right. He doubts.
He won't be like happy and
you know, no.
He will... What?
Is that a real thing or like...
There's no way
there's something weird inside.
Yeah, that goes.
I'm gonna cry.
If there's something weird inside...
If there's something weird inside...
I'm gonna stop.
You'd say that.
You'd say that.
I'm gonna post it on Twitter.
It's bullying.
It's bullying.
He always says that.
Yeah, which we never don't know.
We've not once
bullied him and he always says it.
It's bullying.
It's not.
It's not.
We're just talking normally.
Yeah.
And he starts accusing us of bullying.
Suddenly he starts saying like that.
What?
He does that all the time.
Yeah.
My guess.
My guess is...
Eh?
I'm so happy.
I thought he would forget.
I thought he would forget.
I really thought he would forget.
But I thought he would drink alone.
Thank you.
Oh, that's a great one too.
He would say that.
I thought he would forget.
Yeah.
Because I met him
today,
first floor, at the lobby.
And I didn't say anything to him.
I purposely didn't say anything to him.
And I felt the awkwardness.
I felt that look on his face.
Like, "Today is my birthday.
I'm not going to say anything."
You don't remember?
And I wanted to
hold it in.
I wanted to say happy birthday when we
gave him the gift.
You kept it a secret.
Yeah, I kept it a secret.
Let's see how he'll react
on the next episode.
Thanks for listening, guys.
