Jack

You’re listening to the A-Z English podcast.

00:00:12

Jack

Welcome to the agency English podcast. My name is Jack, and today I’m with my co-host, social. And we are doing.

00:00:20

Jack

We are taking a fun personality quiz and so social. I have several questions that we can go through, and then there’s a menu of items that you can choose like there. There are answers you can choose. And I thought it’d be kind of funny or fun.

00:00:40

Jack

To see what our answers are to these questions. So.

00:00:44

Jack

So #1 is, if you had to live alone on a deserted island with only one item, what would it be your favorite novel?

00:00:57

Jack

A fishing pole.

00:00:59

Jack

A 50 LB. Bag of rice or a box of matches. Which of those?

00:01:05

Jack

Four, would you take?

00:01:18

Xochitl

I would take.

00:01:22

Xochitl

The 50 LB. Bag of rice.

00:01:26

Jack

OK, OK.

00:01:26

Xochitl

Because Bryce doesn’t spoil quickly.

00:01:30

Xochitl

UM and.

00:01:33

Xochitl

I know I can build a fire like from scratch and.

00:01:40

Xochitl

I think I would eventually be able to make some kind of fishing rod to supplement the rice or something, or a net, you know, but I think that.

00:01:52

Xochitl

You would need something to sustain yourself while you are.

00:02:00

Xochitl

Getting everything else in order and that 50 LB. Bag of rice can take you a long way.

00:02:06

Jack

How how are you gonna boil that rice, though?

00:02:08

Jack

Without a pot.

00:02:10

Xochitl

Well, you can make a makeshift pot way more easily than you can get anything else.

00:02:16

Jack

Like a coconut kind of coconut pot? Yeah.

00:02:18

Xochitl

Yeah, I just put a coconut and.

00:02:19

Xochitl

Fill it with the sea water.

00:02:21

Xochitl

And uh, boil that on the stove, you know? Well, on the on some sticks. Fire stick, you know.

00:02:28

Jack

Do you know how to make do you?

00:02:28

Xochitl

What I mean?

00:02:29

Jack

Know how to make a fire without?

00:02:32

Jack

You know, like, naturally, with without any.

00:02:34

Xochitl

Yeah, there’s a couple methods. I mean, I’m sure you know.

00:02:36

Xochitl

The how to right?

00:02:38

Jack

I know that like stick one, but I’m afraid that I would never be able to do it, so I chose DA box of matches because I feel like.

00:02:49

Jack

Although if they get wet, they’re useless. But if they’re dry, I’m assuming they’re dry matches. Then I can use those to build a fire and maybe make like a smoke screen. You know, smoke signal. So that like a ship will know that I’m stranded on.

00:02:51

Xochitl

Yeah. Then yeah.

00:03:09

Jack

On this island.

00:03:10

Jack

But if I don’t get rescued, I’m in big trouble unless I go catch some fish or some crab or something out there on the beach in the water.

00:03:20

Xochitl

Right. Yeah, I there’s like those stone method and the stick method and I think I would eventually be able to recreate it.

00:03:29

Jack

OK.

00:03:29

Xochitl

And I have enough faith.

00:03:30

Xochitl

In myself to uh for the 50 LB. Bag of rice.

00:03:35

Jack

Right. I mean that’s that’s a bold statement that because starting a fire, I don’t know, it seems very difficult, but if you could get that fire.

00:03:44

Jack

Going I’m sitting over there with my fire. Hungry. As you know, super hungry and you’re, you know, got your fire and a 50 LB bag of rice so.

00:03:55

Jack

You’re in a better situation.

00:03:56

Xochitl

I mean, ideally if we if.

00:03:58

Xochitl

You’re here. You have to be alone. But if you’re on the island together and you brought your matches and I brought my rice.

00:04:03

Xochitl

So we’d be set pretty much so.

00:04:05

Jack

Yeah, yeah, it will be all good. Yeah, we’ll we’ll be sick of eating rice, but it’ll be OK.

00:04:11

Xochitl

Yeah, well, it’ll sustain.

00:04:13

Xochitl

Us long enough to catch some fish in the ocean or something, so yeah.

00:04:16

Jack

I mean, it’s better better than reading war and peace for the 15th time or something like that, at least.

00:04:21

Xochitl

Right. And it’s like, what are you?

00:04:23

Xochitl

Eat the novel when?

00:04:24

Xochitl

You’re starving with.

00:04:25

Jack

Right. Yeah. Well, yeah, it’s toilet paper that. That’s what.

00:04:31

Jack

It would be good.

00:04:32

Jack

For yeah.

00:04:32

Xochitl

That’s true.

00:04:36

Jack

#2. All right, our second one, we’re only going to do five of these. So I think, yeah, we tried to do all 10 questions we may be here a long time. #2, which suit food sounds the most appealing to you.

00:04:41

Xochitl

OK.

00:04:53

Jack

A creme brulee B potato chips, C scrambled eggs or D broccoli casserole.

00:05:06

Jack

I’m going to be shocked if you say D.

00:05:09

Xochitl

Easy at broccoli casserole. Creme brulee, scrambled eggs, potato chips. And what was the other one? One.

00:05:14

Jack

Those words? That’s the four. There’s only four.

00:05:17

Xochitl

Oh, there are only four, OK?

00:05:18

발표자

Well, damn.

00:05:22

Xochitl

Just the.

00:05:23

Xochitl

Most appealing like what I’d like right now.

00:05:27

Xochitl

OK, then creme brulee, probably I could go for a nice dessert. I already had my dinner. So a nice crispy. I like the texture of crumbling because I like the creaminess and the crispy top for our listeners who don’t know what creme brulee is, it’s just like.

00:05:42

Jack

That includes me. I don’t know what creme.

00:05:44

Xochitl

Brulee is you don’t know what Creme brulee is. It’s a preemie like custard. Dessert and then it has like sugar on top and they slam bathe the sugar. So they use like a fire torch to burn the sugar on the top. And it makes a ********* surface. And then.

00:06:00

Xochitl

So pack it with a spoon and.

00:06:01

Xochitl

And you get to.

00:06:02

Xochitl

Eat like the.

00:06:04

Xochitl

Kind of burnt burnt sugar with the custard inside. Yeah, it’s really.

00:06:04

Jack

The custardy inside.

00:06:07

Jack

OK, OK.

00:06:10

Jack

That sound, I mean, that sounds wonderful.

00:06:14

Jack

I don’t know. It’s it’s morning where I am right now. So for me, I’m really. I’m really eyeing those scrambled eggs. I’m thinking just some nice scrambled eggs, lots of protein, low carbohydrate, healthy, healthy food. But.

00:06:33

Jack

You know, if I just eating dinner, then I probably would agree with you that the creme brulee sounds amazing. Like custard dessert.

00:06:44

Jack

Can’t complain, yeah.

00:06:47

Jack

All right, so #3.

00:06:50

Jack

What do you think would be the prettiest color combination? I know you like this one.

00:06:58

Jack

A green and yellow.

00:07:00

Jack

B. Pink and red.

00:07:04

Jack

See green and white.

00:07:06

Jack

Or D blue and brown.

00:07:13

Xochitl

You know, even though blue is my favorite color, I’m gonna go with green and white because green is my second favorite color. And I think you could do a lot with green and white because the green could be any tone and complement the white.

00:07:29

Jack

Yeah, that’s true. It could.

00:07:30

Jack

Be like a pine green or a a light green, yeah.

00:07:32

Xochitl

Or mint.

00:07:35

Xochitl

But with the other colors.

00:07:39

Xochitl

It’s kind of hard to get them to complement each other. You’d have to think about the exact tones, like a lot more carefully. I mean, maybe the blue and brown, because brown is like a neutral tone, but I’m not a huge fan of Brown.

00:07:52

Xochitl

So yeah, how about you, Jack?

00:07:55

Jack

Yeah, I was. I I find it.

00:07:57

Jack

Weird when people say my favorite.

00:07:58

Jack

Color is brown. It’s such a like.

00:08:01

Jack

Look, so I’m thinking green and white. Boston Celtics. I mean, the NBA team, Green and yellow, the, you know, the Green Bay Packers, the enemies of the Minnesota Vikings, NFL football team. So that’s off the table.

00:08:02

Xochitl

I know, yeah.

00:08:21

Jack

The Celtics are cool, green and white, pink and red. You know, that’s that’s kind of like would be my wife’ll, you know, choice probably blue and brown. No, thank you. You know what I think a green and white flag shirt would look, really.

00:08:40

Jack

Cool. So I’m gonna go. I’m gonna agree with you 100% and go see green and white.

00:08:48

Xochitl

Bring mail.

00:08:48

Jack

Absolutely. Of those choices, there are better color combinations. But of those choices.

00:08:51

Xochitl

Yes, yeah. But they made it hard for us.

00:08:54

Xochitl

On those choices.

00:08:55

Jack

Yeah, yeah, they gave.

00:08:56

Jack

Us good. That’s actually a really good question.

00:08:59

Jack

OK, #4.

00:09:01

Jack

What is the item of clothing that you have the most of? Scarves. Shoes.

00:09:15

Xochitl

Started she just socks jackets. This is hard because I am a clothing collector. Basically, I have a lot of shoes and a lot of clothes.

00:09:27

Jack

And let’s say.

00:09:27

Xochitl

That’s like.

00:09:28

Jack

Pairs of socks, not just individual socks, because.

00:09:31

Jack

Yeah, that would skew the survey. I think if we just count our socks.

00:09:35

Xochitl

Right.

00:09:36

Xochitl

Ray, I I’m going to rule out socks because I lose them all the time. Also, my dog steals them and hordes hordes my socks. He doesn’t chew them, he just steals them and keeps them in a little pile under his bed. I don’t know why.

00:09:49

Jack

I just find that they disappear and I have no idea where they go and it it’s it’s me crazy because it’s like.

00:09:55

Xochitl

Mine also disappear, but my dog also hoards them, so I know in.

00:09:59

Xochitl

Part where they go anyway.

00:10:02

Xochitl

I’ve definitely outlined scarves because I’m not a big scarf. I’m not a big accessory person in general shoes and jackets, I’m going to say I probably have more shoes and jackets cause I have shoes.

00:10:14

Xochitl

Does that still fit me? Going back from middle school because I kind of stopped growing.

00:10:21

Xochitl

No, I still.

00:10:21

Xochitl

Grew but my feet didn’t really grow.

00:10:23

Xochitl

Anymore after middle school.

00:10:25

Jack

Oh, wow. So you have a.

00:10:26

Jack

Lot of shoes then.

00:10:27

Xochitl

Yeah, I have tons of shoes that like are still in good condition, like boots like high quality boots and stuff that I can still wear from that time. So I have tons of shoes. Yeah, that’s what I have the.

00:10:28

발표자

OK.

00:10:38

Xochitl

Most of how about you?

00:10:38

발표자

OK.

00:10:40

Jack

Yeah. So I have like a reasonable number of socks, you know, pairs of socks that are, it’s not overwhelming. And I have, you know, 3-2 or three scarves that I wear. But I usually just wear my one red scarf that it’s my favorite and.

00:11:00

Jack

Shoes. I don’t have a lot of shoes because I tend to just buy what I need, so I buy them, wear them out, and then buy another.

00:11:08

Jack

There. So I’m not a big like, you know, sneaker guy with like 20-5 pairs of sneakers in my in the closet. So. But my one addiction is jackets. I’m. I’m a big jacket guy. I love fall jackets. So I have a a regular Jean jacket. I have a black Jean jacket.

00:11:29

Jack

I’ve got.

00:11:33

Jack

What’s the other one? A bomber jacket. I’ve got kind of China cut jacket, which is.

00:11:40

Jack

The has no collar.

00:11:42

Jack

And it’s kind of a it’s a faux leather, it’s not a real leather jacket.

00:11:47

Jack

And and I’ve got.

00:11:48

Jack

Like maybe four or five other.

00:11:50

Jack

Jackets on top of that.

00:11:52

Jack

So I probably have like 10 different jackets.

00:11:55

Jack

And I would say that is my kind of addiction. And The funny thing is, in Korea never get to wear them because fall is like 10 minutes long. In Korea, it goes from like summer to winter in literally like a week. So and then in the spring, it just gets warm.

00:12:15

Jack

Really quickly. And so it’s like there’s no opportunity to wear these jackets that I love these fall jackets. So it’s kind of ironic that I own so many and yet I don’t wear them for years at a.

00:12:31

Xochitl

Yeah, especially you’re in Seoul, right? So.

00:12:34

Jack

I’m in Gyeonggi, the suburbs of Seoul.

00:12:37

Xochitl

Yeah. So that’s like much colder cause in loosen where I was like the winter is not that cold, it’s kind of my there’s no snow or.

00:12:46

Xochitl

Anything. So that’s nice, but yeah, so.

00:12:52

Jack

Yeah. Maybe you could maybe if I lived in the. Yeah. Southern part of Korea.

00:12:57

Jack

Then maybe I could just wear like, my my fall jackets all year round, like I wouldn’t need a a parka. But it’s been cold here, so I’ve been wearing a a big parka for the last few weeks.

00:13:14

Jack

OK. #5, last question.

00:13:17

Jack

And of course, we would love our listeners to play along and let us know what their answers are #5 which animal do you think is the cutest a pandas?

00:13:30

Jack

B koalas C dogs.

00:13:34

Jack

I know you’re biased with that.

00:13:35

Jack

One and D pigs.

00:13:39

Xochitl

What was the question, Jack? Sorry I missed it.

00:13:41

Jack

Which animal do you think is the cutest?

00:13:44

Xochitl

Ohh ah yeah, I’m gonna have to say dogs just because my dog is so cute. I mean, yeah, claws are cute. Pigs are cute, but my dog is the cutest animal to ever exist.

00:13:58

Xochitl

Everyone thinks that even people who already have dogs like, and I know some people.

00:14:00

Jack

No, I have.

00:14:01

Jack

A dog and.

00:14:02

Jack

Duende is is is one of the cutest dogs.

00:14:06

Jack

I’ve ever seen.

00:14:07

00:14:09

발표자

Yeah, yeah.

00:14:14

Jack

He’s got like big, big dog vibes and a little dog body.

00:14:18

Xochitl

Yes. And he’s very affectionate as well, so that’s yeah.

00:14:23

Xochitl

How about you, Jack? Which?

00:14:25

Jack

You know, I love like I love pandas.

00:14:25

Xochitl

Is your favorite.

00:14:28

Jack

Like I think they’re I.

00:14:29

Jack

Think they’re cute from afar, but you know when you get closer to.

00:14:33

Jack

Them they’re they’re probably.

00:14:34

Jack

Like intimidating because there’s still like, yeah, but when you just see them kind of rolling in, like like, like rolling into a ball and chewing on some bamboo while, like rolling down a hill, it’s like the cutest thing ever. They especially little baby pandas, are very cute. Koalas are like monsters.

00:14:36

Xochitl

They’re really kind of scary.

00:14:55

Jack

I mean I they they are not cute at all. They have like claws. They you know what I mean? Like they’re they’re when they’re in stuffed animals they’re cute. But in real life they’re.

00:15:07

Jack

They’re quite terrifying, actually.

00:15:10

Jack

Dogs are cute pigs, you know, like the the little pet pigs that people have. Those are kind of cute, but at the end of the day, it’s still a.

00:15:20

Jack

Pig, you know, it’s not really.

00:15:22

Xochitl

They grow up to be big too, like there’s no such thing as a teacup pig. Like, if that little pet pig someone has is gonna grow up to be like a 200 LB hog at the end of the day. So it’s like.

00:15:32

Jack

Right, right. And that.

00:15:35

Jack

There’s nothing cute about a.

00:15:36

Jack

200 LB. Hog.

00:15:39

Xochitl

They are incredibly smart, but I don’t.

00:15:41

Xochitl

Know I’m the cuteness factor. I’m going to have to rate.

00:15:43

Xochitl

Them low, unfortunately.

00:15:46

Jack

So I’m going to go, I’m going to just go pandas. I think pandas are super cute, especially like baby pandas, you know, younger ones.

00:15:58

Jack

But you know, dogs are a very, very close second. We I have a dog. Lily. Lily is just like your dog. She’s got a kind of big dog personality in, like, a little dog’s body, which is what you want, you know, kind of mellow, relaxed.

00:16:17

Jack

Not not too, you know. Excited. Yeah, exactly, exactly.
