TRANSCRIPT
This is Extraordinary English Podcast, Episode #4, Welcome everyone. I am Ben.
In this fourth episode, ...
SCENE 1
ELSA: Ben! When are you going to introduce me?
BEN: Hold your horses Elsa, I will get there.
ELSA: It's been time you promised to have me join Extraordinary English Podcast. I've been waiting for so long. So, sorry but I cannot hold my horses anymore.
BEN: OK, OK... It's your turn now! What do you want to say?
ELSA: At last! Well, first of all, how are you doing Ben?
BEN: I am sort of out of sorts... I have a pain in the neck.
ELSA: Sorry to hear that. I wonder what's the reason.
BEN: The other day I was in deep conversation with a friend, talking about my projects... Then unexpectedly, she cut me off by saying:
SAMBY: "It's not at all in vain, you having all that neck pain!"
ELSA: Oh really? I was about to call you a "couch potato"?
BEN: What?! What do you mean?
ELSA: You're goofing off all the time. You only publish an episode of Extraordinary English Podcast once a year... Why are you not more creative?
BEN: I have a lot on my plate. Besides, last year we started a new podcast with Steve with the name of Out of Order English Podcast.
ELSA: Oh really? You mean the same Steve you had in the third episode of Extraordinary English Podcast?
BEN: Yes, you're right, that Steve!
ELSA: Tell me more. I want to hear all about Out of Order English Podcast.
BEN: OK. Let me tell you how to find and listen to it.
ELSA: I am all ears! Both of them!
BEN: It's on Youtube, and many podcast platforms, including Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon music, and more.
ELSA: I will definitely listen to all of the episodes. And then I will knock on your door. (knocking sound)
SCENE 2
STEVE: Who is that knocking on the door?
ELSA: This is Elsa.
STEVE: Hello Elsa. Why are you making all that noise?
ELSA: I want to join you and Ben in Out of Order English Podcast.
STEVE: OK. Your name is now included in the list. When your turn has arrived, we'll let you know.
ELSA: Yay!
SCENE 3
ELSA: Ben, I have just applied to join Out of Order English Podcast...
BEN: Congratulations Elsa! It'll be nice to have you join us. I'm sure you'll be a valuable addition to the podcast.
ELSA: Thank you Ben. I am happy and I want to sing now.
BEN: Singing? Imm.... You have to have an audition for that.
ELSA: Oh, really?! OK, how can I do that?
BEN: I will conclude this episode, melodizing and singing some meaningful quotes. Try to keep up with me.
ELSA: What?! You want me to perform on the spot?
BEN: That's right!
ELSA: Don't you think this is a tall order?
BEN: I know. But you are talented...
ELSA: That sounds like a daunting task!
BEN: Come on, Elsa. You can do it!
ELSA: OK, I'm game! Let's go for it!
SCENE 4
- I am who I am today because of the choices I made yesterday.
- It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see.
- If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one.
- Never let the same flame burn you twice.
- Speak the truth, even if your voice shakes.
- Seek respect, not attention. It lasts longer.
- Not how long, but how well you have lived is the main thing.
- Take care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.
- Talk sense to a fool and he calls you foolish.
- Wisdom is learning what to overlook.
