Episode Shownotes

Some of you have been listening to this podcast since episode number one, and so you might remember my dad, Joe. He was a guest on episode 44 to talk about driving in the US, and in episode 43 when he talked about his experience living and working in Alaska.

After I posted those episodes, some of you sent me messages on how much you enjoyed listening to my dad. so I dragged him back today! The conversation you'll hear in this episode is lighthearted, funny, and it's full of English idioms. That wasn't the goal for this episode, it just happens to have a lot of idiomatic language because that's the way my dad speaks. Since he speaks clearly, I bet you'll understand a lot of the idioms he used from context. The goal of this episode is for you to hear superlatives in context. What's a superlative form? The superlative form is used to express the highest or lowest degree of an adjective or adverb within a group. For example: Our tree in our front yard is the tallest in the neighborhood. There is no tree taller than ours; ours is the tallest. "The tallest" is the superlative form. Sign up to Premium Content to learn more with this episode!

00:00:04 Speaker_01
Hi everybody! My name is Shawna and this is the American English Podcast. My goal here is to teach you the English spoken in the United States.

00:00:13 Speaker_01
Through common expressions, pronunciation tips, and interesting cultural snippets or stories, I hope to keep this fun, useful, and interesting. Let's do it! Hi, everyone. I hope you're having a nice day wherever you are in the world.

00:00:30 Speaker_01
I know that some of you have been listening to this podcast since episode number one. And so you might remember my dad, Joe. He was a guest on episode 44 to talk about driving in the US.

00:00:46 Speaker_01
And in episode 43, when he talked about his experience living and working in Alaska. He went to high school up there. So that was episode 43. After I posted those episodes, some of you sent me messages on how much you enjoyed listening to my dad.

00:01:06 Speaker_01
Some of you said he seems like an easy-going guy. Others said he's incredibly funny. And I have to agree, chats with him usually lead to laughter.

00:01:19 Speaker_01
So I dragged him back today, and the conversation you'll hear is lighthearted, funny, and it's full of English idioms. That wasn't the goal for this episode. It just happens to have a lot of idiomatic language. Because that's the way my dad speaks.

00:01:39 Speaker_01
But what's great is that he speaks clearly, so I bet you'll understand a lot of the idioms he uses just from context. The goal for this episode is to use superlatives in conversation. What's a superlative?

00:01:56 Speaker_01
The superlative form is used to express the highest or lowest degree of an adjective or adverb within a group. For example, our tree in our front yard is the tallest in the neighborhood. There is no tree taller than ours. Ours is the tallest.

00:02:18 Speaker_01
The tallest is the superlative form. On Halloween, on the 31st of October, we went trick-or-treating. And in our group of friends, Julia ate the most Halloween candy. Clara ate the least. Nobody ate more than Julia. Nobody ate less than Clara.

00:02:40 Speaker_01
Julia ate the most. The most is a superlative. And Clara ate the least, which is also the superlative form. So you get the idea. The conversation is based on superlatives. In each question, I will use one.

00:02:58 Speaker_01
So pay attention and try to use these conversation starters at dinner tonight. I promise they're going to lead to some very funny conversation.

00:03:09 Speaker_01

00:03:25 Speaker_01
Without further ado, let's talk to my dad. Hey, Dad.

00:03:33 Speaker_00
Hello. How's it going? Everything's perfect. Thank you very much. What have you been doing today so far? Dishes. I watered the plants and I pretty much just had my coffee and enjoyed the company.

00:03:50 Speaker_01
Yeah, so I'm currently at my parents' house. We have been here for quite some time because of a hurricane that hit my area of North Carolina. And my parents were nice enough to take us in. And so now I trapped my dad to do an interview in his closet.

00:04:10 Speaker_01
So welcome to your closet, Dad.

00:04:12 Speaker_00
Thank you. Long time no see.

00:04:16 Speaker_01
A lot of you have mentioned in past episodes that you really enjoyed hearing about my dad's experience in Alaska and what it was like living there during his high school time. And so I figured, let's just have a fun, casual chat about something fun.

00:04:36 Speaker_01
Superlatives. Which doesn't sound very fun if I just say superlatives, because maybe some of you are thinking, what in the world are those? But you're about to hear 10 questions using them, and you'll hear natural answers talking about them.

00:04:52 Speaker_01
So let's just jump straight into it. Dad, what's the most useful skill or talent you have?

00:05:05 Speaker_00
I would say being a friend. I can make people feel comfortable and I just don't like to rock the boat. So everybody is reciprocating and it just seems like a great thing.

00:05:20 Speaker_01
Yeah. I definitely agree with that. Maybe you guys don't know this, but my dad is an electrician and he's managed his whole business by word of mouth. So people talk about his good work and of course his, the way that he deals with people.

00:05:36 Speaker_01
And I think that leads to a lot more work, honestly.

00:05:39 Speaker_00
I'll agree. Yeah.

00:05:41 Speaker_01
Yeah. I also was thinking about your pizza making skills. Oh.

00:05:48 Speaker_00
That was just something I fell into. There was a pizza place where I used to live that I love so much that I got their cookbook. And it just turns out that it's very easy to do. And I got great comments as people just loved everything I made.

00:06:04 Speaker_00
So it just fueled me more to keep going and doing more and more and more. And now it seems to be my hobby.

00:06:12 Speaker_01
Hobby and family tradition. Every time we come back to their house, my daughters are like, When are we having pizza night? It's pizza making time. And they like to get their hands in the dough. And he's like, I'm not really sure you like it very much.

00:06:27 Speaker_00
Well, it does sort of elongate things, but it's something that you just have to do. I mean, they love it. And I love to have them here. So it's great.

00:06:38 Speaker_01
All right, most useless talent. I'm not sure that mom actually... No, mom was the one that mentioned this was your most useless talent and it's moonwalking. What in the world is that about?

00:06:55 Speaker_00
Well, I grew up in the Michael Jackson era, so I always wanted to try it and always have tried to practice it. But now that I'm 63 years old, my moonwalking skills aren't so fantastic, but I still think I'm the best.

00:07:10 Speaker_00
And my wife seems to disagree a lot.

00:07:16 Speaker_01
Oh, God. I actually really enjoy this question. Once again, that was, what's the most useful and useless talent you have? All right. So something to think about. Kind of funny.

00:07:28 Speaker_01
So my dad's answers were being nice, being a nice person, pizza making, being useful also, and then useless talent that was moonwalking.

00:07:40 Speaker_01
Although I have to say watching Michael Jackson moonwalk, it doesn't feel very useless because it's like very cool. So next question I have a little bit awkward. I feel like it's sort of taboo to talk about a worst present.

00:07:57 Speaker_01
You can't really say that a present is bad, but I want to know, can you think of an answer to that question? What's the best and worst present you've received?

00:08:08 Speaker_00
Well, the best is easy because when I was younger, I got my first bicycle, which was a 10 speed bicycle that I used on my paper routes and whatnot. It was just exciting to have a new bike and all nice and shiny. And man, I was proud of that thing.

00:08:25 Speaker_00
Washed it all the time.

00:08:26 Speaker_01
Do you remember getting it? Like what that was like?

00:08:31 Speaker_00
Yeah, that was another story. Well, we being bad kids, me and my older brothers, we looked out the front window on Christmas Eve and we watched my parents wheel them across the street to the house and we're like all going, no, that one's mine.

00:08:45 Speaker_00
No, that one's mine. So yeah, we kind of spoiled the surprise on Christmas morning, but we were still excited. Yeah.

00:08:55 Speaker_01
Very nice. And you said paper route. I'm not sure that a non-native speaker would know what a paper route is. What is that?

00:09:01 Speaker_00
It's just the daily news that comes out every day and all the young kids would go to the newspaper company and we would pick up our hundreds of papers and we'd fold them, put rubber bands on them, put them in a big bag around our neck and we'd go from house to house on our bicycles and we'd throw them on their driveways or front porches if they were really nice customers.

00:09:27 Speaker_00
Yeah, it didn't make us much money, but it was some money for a youngster.

00:09:32 Speaker_01
So you were a paper boy at one point. That's awesome. So delivering physical newspapers, which I'm not even sure, in your area, are there still physical newspapers?

00:09:43 Speaker_00
There are, but they seem to be phasing out. We got a newspaper practically our whole lives, except for up to about a year and a half ago. It just seems like it's a thing of the past.

00:09:56 Speaker_01
Yeah, maybe also depends on the city too. I imagine, well, maybe not. I don't know. I'm just thinking about the New York Times. I'm like, does that still get delivered around New York City? Maybe. I don't know. All right.

00:10:09 Speaker_01
And the worst gift you've ever received, does anything come to mind?

00:10:16 Speaker_00
Oh, well, one Christmas I woke up and I received a whole bunch of clothing. And so I tried something on and it didn't fit. And I tried something else on and it didn't fit. It went on and on and on. So I started to cry.

00:10:33 Speaker_00
And then I turned out that all my brothers thought I was an ungrateful little boy. So that was my worst Christmas ever when nothing fit.

00:10:45 Speaker_01
When nothing fit. Yeah, so an extra big close for about a year. Yes. Yeah. I have some memories of our trip to Brazil. And I think this is going to be the answer to our next question, which is, what's the strangest thing you've ever eaten?

00:11:05 Speaker_01
Does anything come to mind about a trip to an island in the middle of Paraná?

00:11:12 Speaker_00
Well, yeah, turns out that there was a fella taking care of the island, I guess he's the caretaker, and he was barbecuing some animal, and turns out the animal was called a capybara. Well, I didn't know any better, so he says, here, give it a try.

00:11:33 Speaker_00
So there I am, I took a little bite, put it in my mouth, and I'm looking at my son-in-law, and he's kind of looking at me like, what are you doing, man? What are you eating? What is that? He's like, spit that out.

00:11:46 Speaker_00
And it's, I guess capybara is just a marsupial or a mouse or a big rat. It's the size of a horse practically. And

00:11:56 Speaker_01
It looks like a giant hamster.

00:11:58 Speaker_00
Yeah, so it really wasn't that great. And that was one item I had in Brazil. The other one would be a... Jackfruit? Jackfruit.

00:12:09 Speaker_01
So this is the same trip and it was like one thing happened after the next. And just so you guys are aware, Brazilians do not eat capybara or capybara. How do you say it in English?

00:12:21 Speaker_02
Capybara?

00:12:22 Speaker_01
Capybara in English? Okay, I think in Portuguese it's capybara. But, yeah, they don't eat it. That's not part of Brazilian culture. It was just the particular man living on that island that thought it was a... It's probably like eating your dog. Yeah. No.

00:12:37 Speaker_01
So, yeah. Yeah. And what did it taste like?

00:12:43 Speaker_00
I would just say it was like a piece of shoe leather. Yeah, that was, yeah.

00:12:49 Speaker_01
Okay, shoe leather. And the jackfruit, tell us about that.

00:12:54 Speaker_00
Jackfruit is like a unforgettable taste that sort of just mushes through your mouth as like Jell-O would. And it just had a tangy, tart, pethy, oh, it was brutal.

00:13:11 Speaker_01
It's so funny because so many people love jackfruit. I think a lot of times when it comes to fruit and just, I guess, trying new things in general, some things are acquired tastes. And we didn't grow up having jackfruit at all. Right.

00:13:27 Speaker_01
It sort of actually appeared, I think, somewhat recently at the supermarkets because of the vegans that like eating it as like an alternative meat. But I haven't seen the actual physical fruit because it's massive. And I've never seen that.

00:13:42 Speaker_01
You would definitely notice that if it was at a supermarket, right?

00:13:46 Speaker_00
Yeah, well, it's something I'm not going to order again. It sort of reminds me of another time when I tried durian for the first time. My son never heard me scream as loud as I did when I tried that or shrieked with dismay. And yeah, another item.

00:14:06 Speaker_00
Just don't want to go there anymore.

00:14:08 Speaker_01
Yep, to each his own. We have all got some things that we can probably remember that were strange or unpleasant. So once again, that question was, what's the strangest thing you've ever eaten?

00:14:24 Speaker_01
Let's go ahead and talk about the most delicious meal you've had in a restaurant. Can you think of something yummy? Some memorable creation that a chef made and put in front of your face and you just thought, oh, yes.

00:14:42 Speaker_00
Well. Of course, I've had many a good things to eat.

00:14:46 Speaker_00
You know, lobster is always one of them, but I can just remember going to work all the time and I always ordered a nice, beautiful T-bone steak, surround it with some salt and pepper, some mashed potatoes there, and just slide that juicy steak through that salt and pepper and taking a bite of that.

00:15:03 Speaker_00
Oh, it was just fantastic.

00:15:06 Speaker_01
Yum. You're definitely a steak person.

00:15:09 Speaker_00
Oh yeah, vegetarian, tried it for about two weeks, couldn't make it much past that.

00:15:15 Speaker_01
You actually tried to be vegetarian because of hockey, right? My dad plays hockey, if you guys don't remember from the Alaska chat. He goes multiple times a week to play with the hockey team.

00:15:27 Speaker_01
And at one point, I remember you came to this conclusion that by not eating meat, you would actually be faster or have more endurance. What was that about?

00:15:39 Speaker_00
Well, there was that aspect of it trying to just be more fit, but actually it all boiled down to a TV show we watched, which was quite the eye opener of watching what all these big giant pig farms and beef farms are doing to the environment and the cruelty.

00:15:58 Speaker_00
And it just gave you a whole new outlook on what you were eating and the actual process to get to that point to where it's just mass consumed. It was.

00:16:09 Speaker_00
It was kind of heartbreaking, so we just thought, let's give it a try for a while and see what it was. Maybe it'd be better for the environment.

00:16:16 Speaker_01
Right. So two weeks. Yeah. Made it two weeks. Two weeks. And the endurance, any change in your body? Did you realize you were playing hockey with more oomph?

00:16:27 Speaker_00
Oh, yeah. I felt lighter, faster. more clairvoyant. It just did make you feel better. You didn't feel like you were sitting around like a big blob. You just felt better. Yeah.

00:16:41 Speaker_01
I always feel like that topic of meat is a little bit tough. I heard a comedian recently say, I'm one Netflix documentary away from being vegetarian. And I thought, you know, that's

00:16:54 Speaker_01
Pretty much what it comes down to, I think, for a lot of people because there is that sort of like in the back of your head going, shoot, I know this is wrong. I like the taste so much. It's like an internal battle, I think, for a lot of people. Yeah.

00:17:07 Speaker_01
So next question. Who's the funniest person you've ever known?

00:17:14 Speaker_00
funniest person hands down would be my dad. He lived to a ripe old age. He was in the military in three different wars. He just had the sense of humor of someone that was always sitting next to somebody telling jokes and

00:17:34 Speaker_00
just carrying it on with comments that were just outlandish. Nothing was ever dirty or filthy. They were all clean jokes. And he was amazing.

00:17:45 Speaker_00
He would, he had a friend, Bill Kirchible that was, uh, the, between the two of them, it was like one would start, the other one would finish it. And it just went on and on and on.

00:17:56 Speaker_00
And man, I just sit there with those guys and just listen to them forever.

00:18:00 Speaker_01
Did you pick up on a lot of his humor over the years? Because you definitely have a sense of humor. That's everybody in the world would say that you have a sense of humor.

00:18:11 Speaker_00
Well, I definitely have that, but I sometimes, I love to tell a good joke once in a while, but my wife will sit there and roll her eyes at me. And boy, did you screw that one up, she said.

00:18:27 Speaker_01
But I think you are good at the storytelling, too, because I have a lot of memories growing up, and while you think your dad was the funniest person, I have to say you're probably the funniest person I know. Thank you. You're welcome. But it's true.

00:18:43 Speaker_01
I think it's a really cool skill to be able to turn a story into a joke, and that's what I've never been able to do. It's like, dang, you've got to be able

00:18:54 Speaker_01
to get everybody's attention first off, which is so hard in a room full of different people, and then to actually hit it with a punchline when people aren't expecting it. Crazy skill.

00:19:05 Speaker_00
Bait and hook.

00:19:06 Speaker_01
Yeah, exactly. All right, so the funniest person my dad has ever known was his dad. All right. Okay, let's see how many more we have here. Just a few more. we're going to go with what's the most boring movie you've ever seen.

00:19:26 Speaker_00
Hands down, Bicentennial Man. This was a movie that went on and on and on. They had probably at least 50 times to end that movie. And my word, it just would not finish.

00:19:42 Speaker_00
I went with my daughter and we both would look at each other and go, do we really have to stay here for this whole movie? And we stuck it out and oh, I would recommend it to anybody that really has nothing better to do

00:19:57 Speaker_01
thing that was so upsetting to me about that movie well first of all my friend Jessica told me my whole family's in that movie so the whole movie my dad and I were looking for my friend Jessica and I found out after the movie that it was actually just her feet there was like a

00:20:15 Speaker_01
There were just like, there was like a view of like her family's feet, and I'm not sure why they chose their feet in particular. A good looking family feet.

00:20:24 Speaker_01
And then the other problem was that it was Robin Williams, you know, and you're like, God, I respect this guy. This guy's a fantastic. Fantastic actor, R.I.P. But what made it so boring, though, for you? Just the fact that they just didn't end it?

00:20:40 Speaker_00
They didn't end it. They didn't end it, and it was like you were expecting them to end it, and you're waiting for them to end it, and it would go on and on and on. Oh, it was like pulling teeth.

00:20:52 Speaker_01
Yeah. It was like pulling teeth. That is a fantastic expression. What does it mean, it was like pulling teeth?

00:21:00 Speaker_00
Painful.

00:21:01 Speaker_01
Painful and very hard. Yeah, very hard to do. Yeah. All right. So next, let's do maybe two more. What is the most daring thing you've ever done?

00:21:16 Speaker_00
Daring? Well, I used to work on the North Slope of Alaska and every day was a challenge of just getting up and being prepared for sub-zero temperatures.

00:21:28 Speaker_00
But also when I lived up there, we did, I had a lot of ski buddies and we would go to this mountain called Mount Alyeska.

00:21:36 Speaker_00
And this wasn't a simple mountain, it was quite challenging and a lot of my friends were, well, very advanced skiers, so I would just follow in behind them and they took me down this one trail that wasn't on the beaten path and they came up to an area where they stopped and it was right next to a cliff.

00:21:56 Speaker_00
So they're peering over the edge of the cliff looking down and there's a small patch of snow about maybe 20 feet down. Below that small patch of snow there was the bottom of the ravine and it was probably another 20 feet down.

00:22:13 Speaker_00
Then they're looking at each other and says, well we'll ski off the ledge, we'll hit the first patch of snow and then we'll land down below. Well, we all did it one at a time, and it was the most fearful thing.

00:22:26 Speaker_00
It was probably like jumping out of an airplane for the first time. It was just, just slide over and cross your fingers and hope for the best.

00:22:36 Speaker_01
And do you remember the landing?

00:22:40 Speaker_00
Not being a bragger, I stuck the landing.

00:22:43 Speaker_01
You stuck it? What does that mean?

00:22:45 Speaker_00
I stuck my head right in the snow, probably. I don't recall the landing, but I lived.

00:22:50 Speaker_01
Okay, yeah. I don't know. For me, I have a fear of heights, and so that sounds really horrible. Would you ever do it again?

00:23:02 Speaker_00
Most definitely. It was exhilarating. Yeah. Yeah. And then, and my friends that I skied with, I'll remember him forever. Um, just to watch them go down the hill. It was incredible.

00:23:13 Speaker_00
I had one friend, he, we call him the rubber band man, just because when he came down and he did the moguls, his whole head would flop from left to right and left to right. And he was, he was amazing.

00:23:24 Speaker_00
And one day I'm watching him ski and he goes, I'm going to do a backflip today.

00:23:28 Speaker_02
No.

00:23:29 Speaker_00
So he gets out there and I watch him. It's his first time he's ever tried. Shoots up, comes up, gets upside down.

00:23:37 Speaker_00
And when he comes around to make the landing, his skis got stuck in the snow before he could make the clear 360 flip over and just wrecked so bad. And he's sitting there and we go up to him and check on him and everything.

00:23:51 Speaker_00
And he's like, Oh man, my dad always says, if you don't get back on that horse and try again, you'll never do it. So he tried it again. And lo and behold, it happened again. He did the same thing.

00:24:04 Speaker_00
So he said a third time, he tried it a third time and he, he wrecked again. And one of the time I go up to him, he just says, I can't do it anymore.

00:24:15 Speaker_01
Oh, my God. You know, that is a good expression you also just use. My dad's using expressions left and right. To get back on the horse means to, like, try something again. You know, don't let it be a failure. Just try again.

00:24:27 Speaker_01
But it sounds like it wasn't worth getting back on that horse.

00:24:31 Speaker_00
I applaud him for not giving up.

00:24:35 Speaker_01
Right. Yeah. Wow. Alright last one. I had something that I really wanted to talk about and I can't oh Yes, I do remember.

00:24:46 Speaker_01
Alright, so in English we have this sort of phrase we use to pull a prank and I've realized in the English classes that I've taught that most non-native English speakers don't know what that means and

00:25:00 Speaker_01
To pull a prank is to do something, you know, that's a trick or a joke. You play a joke on someone. What's a common prank that someone might pull?

00:25:10 Speaker_01
Maybe like having a dollar attached to a piece of fishing line, pulling it across the floor and watching people chase after that dollar. That would be a, you know, elementary school joke you could play.

00:25:23 Speaker_01
So my dad has a few pranks that he pulled in his life. So what's the funniest prank you've ever pulled?

00:25:33 Speaker_00
Well, I'm not too proud of it. But this is so funny. Well, I was young, so I'm very forgivable. How old? Oh, I was probably six, seven, eight, I guess. We lived in a two-story home and I was upstairs one day.

00:25:54 Speaker_00
And I don't know what made me do this, but we had the Dixie Cups in the bathroom. And I decided I was going to go to the bathroom, go number one.

00:26:07 Speaker_01
Go pee, yeah.

00:26:09 Speaker_00
Into this Dixie Cup. Well, I did. And I don't know where it came over me, but I called my brother Jeff. Jeff, Jeff, come here. I want you to try this lemonade I just made." Well, he was probably four years older than me at the time. He should have known.

He came in and boy, I said, yeah, try this. I just made it. And sure enough, he took a big drink of this. spit it out all over the sink and mirror vanity. It was everywhere.

00:26:46 Speaker_00
And all I could do, he looked at me with fire in his eyes and I took off running down the stairs, out the front door and just ran down the street. He never did catch me, but I'm, I'm, I'm.

00:26:59 Speaker_00
I don't even know if he remembers that to this day, but... I mean, how would you not remember that?

00:27:04 Speaker_01
Maybe he tried to delete it from his memory. Like, why did I believe my younger brother handing me a Dixie cup of pee in the bathroom? Like, how could that possibly be lemonade?

00:27:16 Speaker_00
That's so funny. How could you turn down fresh lemonade? You know, hey, pretty good stuff. Warm lemonade. Warm lemonade. Come and get it.

00:27:25 Speaker_01
Oh gosh. All right. So we had that. What was the funniest prank you've ever pulled? All right. So we went through a lot of superlatives here. We had the best, the worst, the most useful, or the most useless? Unusefulness.

00:27:48 Speaker_01
All right, and then we did Strangest when we talked about the capybara and the jackfruit. And we talked about the most delicious meal he's had. We talked about the most daring thing he's done, the most boring movie he's watched.

00:28:06 Speaker_01
We've covered a lot of different questions. Is there anything else you want to share?

00:28:14 Speaker_00
I just hope everybody's healthy out there and having a great day. Take time to be with your loved ones and tell them a joke. Make them happy, make them smile. In return, you'll get a big smile out of it, too.

00:28:28 Speaker_01
Thanks, Dad, for coming on the show.
