Shadowing-Übung: are you still watching? - Englisch Sprechen Lernen mit Video

How much do you spend on streaming every month?

How much do I spend?

Yeah, this is like...

Or how much do other people spend on my behalf?

Thank you to Hostinger for sponsoring this video, and to our patrons for supporting the channel.

Okay, let me Google how much it costs, because I don't know what these cost.

Okay, I did some Googling.

Thank goodness I don't pay for all this myself.

I don't like hearing that.

You want to know why?

I have all of them, and I'm paying for all of them.

Who loses out if I have a VPN and a dream?

Yeah, like why are they also so pressed about sharing passwords?

Are they really that broke?

Woman who doesn't pay for streaming services, are you really that broke?

Do you use all of these services every month?

Ah, I open it every day.

That's crazy.

It might be.

I ended up doing the math and it turns out I spent 97 Canadian dollars

and 86 Canadian cents every month to watch videos on the internet.

The thing you're doing right now for free.

But the funny thing is, is that I don't really care about the money.

My problem with streaming isn't the cost, it's that it just...

It doesn't feel like home anymore.

I might be the only person who feels this way, if you search up the state of streaming on the internet right now, you're gonna find a half dozen video essays with millions of you saying, we gotta go back to piracy,

but at risk of sounding like a boot licker, I don't really want to do that anymore.

Don't ask me what's on this hard drive.

Now I do think there's a valid case for archiving work

so it doesn't vanish in case some loser with a spreadsheet doesn't want to pay residuals, But beyond that, I don't mind using my disposable income on things that are important to me.

And streaming services are weirdly important to me.

Maybe it's because I've been using them since the beginning.

Do you remember this?

My family cut the cable in the late 2000s in favor of this.

A Netflix disc for the Nintendo Wii console that connected to their video streaming service.

It's so old that they had to remind people not to return the disc.

For the first time, we didn't need to worry about recording programs or managing our DVR.

We didn't need to get a box set if we wanted to watch every episode of a TV show.

Now this meant a lot to me specifically because I'm a youngest child, which meant that I had no control over the remote during the best TV hours.

But Netflix meant that I could watch what I wanted when I wanted.

And it turns out that was all of the time.

I am finally, finally, 100% caught up with Castle and...

I have no more purpose in life.

They shaped my interests and personality in comically obvious ways.

Whoever?

I'm the castle.

Castle, castle.

I really am.

I'm the handsome one.

I spent my days exploring different worlds with different characters.

Top three, by the way, are 30 Rock, Psych, and now Scrubs.

No particular order.

They're all just so good.

This sort of constancy was only possible thanks to streaming giving me a new way to watch TV.

Shows weren't just something I caught when it was on.

They were a place to live for a few seasons.

And before you say that this is just what happens when you're an adult with responsibilities, I want to say

that my life is is comically similar to what it was

ten years ago Let me just find this one clip

So I'm eventually going to get up and go edit yesterday's daily vlog

and probably just watch the Mindy project on my second monitor

But that's about all for today

If you want to see me keep making daily vlogs make sure you like share

and subscribe and I will see you tomorrow

That was ten years ago The only thing that's different is

my glasses my entire life has been making YouTube videos and watching TV except I'm not watching TV anymore.

I think my problem is that there's just too much friction.

I'm reaching for my phone to use Instagram instead of watching TV because TV just feels like so much work nowadays.

I know I sound cooked, but like, I just picture it as browsing, clicking through different apps and titles

and watching the sorry excuse for what counts as a trailer nowadays as it auto-plays

while I'm trying to read the show description.

I can't escape into another world because it feels like I'm stuck in traffic trying to get there,

But I want to go to there because I love TV.

So I want to figure out how to bring back the parts of the streaming experience

that I loved as a kid to find my way back home.

To start, I looked for what was making streaming feel so insufferable nowadays.

There were a bunch of articles explaining the rising cost and economics of it all.

But when it came down to the actual experience of watching stuff, this one idea kept popping up in different words.

Abundance of options, content overload, Choice fatigue.

Basically...

My lungs are too buttery!

My steak too juicy!

My content too abundant!

That's what I sound like, and you know what?

I'm right.

Because it is a problem.

For two reasons.

First, we have the paradox of choice, or overchoice, or choice overload.

Bit of an ironic name, but it's when too many choices gets in the way of making a decision.

Alongside that, we have decision fatigue, where making too many decisions impairs your ability to make more decisions.

Both of these things can collide after a long day of living in a society.

Maybe we're fighting off a crash out over a customer, or a co-worker, or an exclamation point in an email.

But we also need to decide what to eat, when to do our laundry, whether or not we should cancel that gym membership that we never used, but maybe we should just start going to the gym?

All the while our phone just sends us more things that we need to decide.

Should I text them back?

What do I do about the news?

It just won't shut up!

Not all of these choices can build up into this big lump of exhausting reality.

So, you might want to escape for a second to a different world. But to do that...

100

YOU HAVE TO MAKE MORE CHOICES!

101

BAH!

102

BAH!

103

BAH!

104

CHAP!

105

Now I'll admit, struggling with what to watch isn't new.

106

Before all of this, we were loitering in a blockbuster or flipping through TV channels.

107

But the difference now is that there is so much more.

108

We're all choice overloaded and decision fatigued, so it can be tempting just to choose not to choose.

109

Just settle back into a comfort show or scroll on social media which makes all the decisions for you. But...

110

I don't know.

111

I just don't want to be so passive with this thing that I care about.

112

I don't want to be the kind of person who's convinced

113

that all of the good TV shows were made when I was a kid during my formative years, just because I haven't had the time to really engage with anything new.

114

So how do we fix this?

115

Well, the same way we always do.

116

With a website made with Hostinger!

117

They've been sponsoring videos on this channel for almost five years now.

118

So, I wanna get rid of all the decisions that don't matter and focus on the only one that does.

119

What do I want to watch?

120

So I made a simple tool that lets you browse titles and add it to your watch list.

121

Wow! So under-stimulating.

122

Then it just tells you which streaming service has the most stuff that you actually want to watch.

123

This should simplify the math of which streaming service you should get and help you stay focused when you actually use it.

124

You've already made the one choice that matters, so you're free to ignore all the chaos.

125

Or embrace it.

126

I don't know where you sit on the alignment chart.

127

I think they should make streaming easier.

128

And I know that it was easy to make, thanks to Hostinger.

129

I got my premium hosting plan, which is available for just $2.99 a month.

130

I got my free domain that comes with a hosting plan.

131

And I got my free business mailbox so all your bug reports don't clog up my main email address.

132

But there won't be any bugs.

133

Cause I didn't code the backend.

134

Instead I made no code workflows with N8N.

135

They have hundreds of nodes and integrations that you just drag and drop.

136

No need to code, no need to worry about semicolons.

137

Now, N8N does have a cloud platform, but I prefer to self-host

138

because I don't want to have to worry about rate limiting

139

in case you guys make this website go viral like you did for spellcheck.

140

More than a thousand people still go to this website every day!

141

I made this game as a joke!

142

Self-hosting also keeps my data and your data if you use the site more private.

143

So I use Hostinger's self-hosted N8N plan.

144

It's really convenient being able to manage all things related to my website in one dashboard.

145

These two plans make it possible for me to make basically any website, web app, tool I can imagine while writing basically no code.

146

It's awesome.

147

I'd call it a miracle, but it's actually just Hostinger.

148

One of the most comprehensive and affordable web hosting platforms out there.

149

You can make your portfolio, online store, vibe-coded app all in one place.

150

Literally, you can host multiple websites with one plan.

151

If you're ready to get started, you could go to hostinger.com forward slash answer in progress or click the first link in the description.

152

And you can use our code answer in progress for 10% off your first purchase.

153

Either way, we've got a website.

154

Now let's use it and see if we saved streaming.

155

No big deal.

156

I made a website.

157

Of course she did.

158

Do you guys remember how I have all the streaming services?

159

That you pay for every single one of them.

160

To be honest, my problem isn't the money.

161

My problem is that I just want to be using the streaming services.

162

Spoken like a true secret billionaire.

163

My problem isn't the money.

164

It's the principle of it all.

165

Okay, explain, explain.

166

The problem is...

167

When I was younger, I built my identity around what I watched.

168

I loved it so, so much.

169

And that just doesn't happen anymore.

170

And it made me sad.

171

Well, you have all of these streaming services.

172

How are you not getting lost in pop culture?

173

You have them all at your fingertips.

174

That's exactly it.

175

I should be able to do this thing that I was able to do back when like there was one streaming service.

176

Why does it seem harder than ever?

177

And I think it's because there's just too much streaming services.

178

I'm having...

179

This is actually the funniest conversation we've ever had.

180

I pay for 10 streaming services.

181

My problem is that there are too many streaming services You pay for 10 streaming services!

182

Hearing it out loud

183

I don't even know what this video is about The premise of this conversation is so funny My lobster too juicy,

184

my steak too buttery Like truly like what are we talking about?

185

My tummy hurts Cause your steak too juicy So anyway,

186

you have 10 streaming services and that's a problem for you because you were a child once.

187

I kind of wish we had this conversation a little earlier

188

because it feels like the answer should have been only use one streaming service.

189

What have you done?

190

I made a website.

191

Wow.

192

What do I do?

193

You make a watch list on the website and then it tells you

194

which streaming service has the most of the stuff on your

195

watch list way actually kind of good like this might be no offense sabrina this might be the first

196

genuinely useful website

197

that you have made for a video you can kind of create your list of things

198

that you want to watch without being overwhelmed by an actual streaming service that's trying to tell you

199

that you want to watch this thing you're like do i actually want to watch this thing

200

so you can like make your list without the distractions of streaming services so true it made choosing

201

what I want to watch.

202

Stopped feeling overwhelming and I just got to experience like the fun of Discovery again.

203

I also liked there's like a section where you it'll show you one item

204

and you can say yes or no. That's great.

205

Okay so remind me again what is your problem?

206

Are you trying to reduce the number of subscriptions that you are currently subscribed to?

207

Okay so theoretically yes this should have helped me manage my streaming service subscriptions.

208

I can't cancel any of my plans because they're all annual subscriptions.

209

Oh no!

210

Theoretically it could help though.

211

Okay.

212

My website, while I think it's useful, it didn't solve every problem people have with streaming.

213

I shared the website with our audience and 33% of people just said, no, this was not useful to me.

214

A lot of it boiled down to the fact that like there are people out there who want to boycott

215

big streamers entirely for a lot of reasons.

216

There are the labor disputes that drove the writer and actor strikes.

217

There are these unpredictable catalogs due to licensing or memory holding work for a tax break.

218

There's the introduction of ads, which kind of defeats the entire purpose that streaming started with.

219

And like some people just want to opt out of that.

220

I only subscribe to a couple of streaming services, but when there's something that I want to watch that's just not on on a streaming service, I will just buy the digital copy.

221

Really?

222

I think this comes from me when I was a kid.

223

I would just buy the DVD box sets.

224

I have three minion movies in high res Blu-ray 3D.

225

You really need to see that.

226

Blu-ray.

227

I think that a lot of people's problems with streaming is very valid

228

and it makes me appreciate physical media a lot more.

229

One thing I think I'm going to try

230

and do with the website is also use like the eBay

231

API to add another option on top of streaming for like everything that you search for.

232

Check if there is a DVD available for it.

233

But honestly, ever since I made this first version, I haven't spent that much more time working on it

234

because I have been too busy watching things again guys since

235

i made this site last week i have watched two entire

236

tv series whoa i thought you're gonna say two movies me too crazy seasons

237

or series two series five seasons total of media in two

238

weeks in one week in one week i watched all of barry

239

and season one of widow's bay it ah so good the tumblr girl is back well ready to make some gift sets.

240

Yes and no. What do you mean?

241

They're both like really good.

242

Like I was watching them and I was like oh this is like art.

243

Like I'm watching something that is like just truly beautiful craftsmanship.

244

But it doesn't hit the same as like.

245

That's because you're not a child.

246

That's because you're not a child.

247

No no no that's not true.

248

At the same time that I was watching these two shows, I have also been making my way through the West Wing.

249

I hate this show.

250

Aaron Sorkin needs to pay for his crimes.

251

And yet here I am searching it up on Pinterest and Tumblr and AO3.

252

AO3 of the West Wing?

253

What even is it?

254

That is a fan fiction website.

255

Hands off the keyboard.

256

Okay.

257

And so it's not because I'm an adult now, Because I'm still capable of being cringe.

258

Oh, sure, that's another way to put it.

259

The West Wing was made 20 plus years ago.

260

There's something about it that feels different compared to shows that are made more recently.

261

Shows that I know that are objectively good, but it just doesn't trap me in the same way.

262

And I don't know why.

263

I think that streaming has probably changed the way TV is made, but I don't know if that means that it doesn't hit the same.

264

Maybe you are just not watching the shows that hit the same way as that show.

265

So I decided to watch what the fangirls were watching.

266

To be honest, it was a blast, especially watching with friends.

267

However, it still wasn't hitting the same.

268

Something still felt off.

269

Now, don't get me wrong.

270

I am having a great time watching the Summer I Turned Pretty Season 1 Episode 4 Summer Heat.

271

But if I think about it, I'm like 15% of the way through the show.

272

There's just not enough show.

273

And the interesting thing is, if I want more show, I get directed towards the books instead of fan fiction.

274

These fandoms are not popping off in the way that I would expect from like the cultural reach of these shows.

275

Not only is there less stuff, but there's also less space to play with it.

276

And then I think about the equivalent shows that would have been made 20 years ago, Gossip Girl, The O.C.

277

Those shows, they made some unexpected choices.

278

some of which got turned into some of the greatest SNL skits of all time.

279

This is a loose homage to the final moment of the season two finale of The O.C.

280

It was incredibly stupid, but also, I don't know, incredibly human.

281

There is a chance that I'm just being nostalgic about the past, but it really feels like moments like that don't happen in TV anymore.

282

Somebody in the comments is going to say like, no, this show does that.

283

This show does that.

284

I've been watching a lot of TV.

285

Still looking for it.

286

These weird human choices that don't necessarily serve the story. Where did they go?

287

It's been a process for creators of figuring out how to effectively tell stories in different ways.

288

My name is Amanda Lotz.

289

I'm a professor of media studies, currently at the Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane, Australia.

290

But I am by birth American and spent much of my career studying media industries in the US.

291

And she studied them.

292

This is just a handful of her books exploring how technological infrastructure actually impacts the stories that get told.

293

So in order to really appreciate what is different about TV shows today, I think we need to understand the past.

294

We need to know how older technology shaped the foundations of TV in order to see how streaming changed it.

295

Amanda was kind enough to walk me through the major evolutionary stages of TV, starting with broadcast.

296

Broadcast, I think the word that I would use in conjunction with that is scarcity.

297

Building off radio technology.

298

Broadcasts work by capturing audio and video, converting it into an electrical signal, and transmitting that signal through the air at a specific frequency or channel,

299

as in TV channel.

300

Now anyone with an antenna could catch that transmission and convert the signal back to a show, But not just anyone could send transmissions.

301

It was a technically difficult thing to do, but more importantly, if there were too many transmissions, it would clog the airways.

302

It would make them unusable.

303

The government would organize them.

304

We created licenses.

305

And in most places, there weren't very many licenses.

306

And that's where the scarcity comes from.

307

With only a handful of broadcasters needing to appeal to entire nations at once, the programming was pretty generic.

308

In the early 50s and 60s, there were a lot of family sitcoms.

309

Westerns were really big, police shows, medical shows.

310

The game was to try to attract the most attention, because that attention would be sold to advertisers.

311

Now we all know that our attention is being sold to advertisers, even the good ones.

312

You can use code ANSWERINPROGRESS for 10% off your first website by clicking the link in the description.

313

But it's important to note just how mass appeal this media was meant to be.

314

Early broadcast programming was designed to appeal to as many people as possible, no matter the age, race, politics, education.

315

Broadcast technology was for everyone, and so the shows were designed for numbers, not niches.

316

That started to change with cable.

317

Cable started actually fairly soon after television only as a technology to help people who,

318

due to geography like mountains or living with big skyscrapers, couldn't receive those signals over the air.

319

So cable just started as an alternative way to transmit and receive shows.

320

The advantage for cable companies was that they could charge people for access in a way that broadcasters couldn't.

321

But in order to get people to pay, they needed to offer something new.

322

In the 70s, you have the launch of some new kinds of content.

323

It's mostly around specialized channels, so sports, ESPN is one of the earliest ones.

324

CNN was probably particularly important.

325

That ability to be able to watch news at any point in the day, that was new then.

326

HBO, they start to sort of do things that people would say, you can't do that on television,

327

partly because they weren't governed by the same rule as broadcasters, but I'd say even more so because of their business model.

328

They were able to cater to people who wanted something different

329

and were so desirous of that that they were willing to pay.

330

Now, when I hear sports, news, HBO, I don't think niche.

331

But that might just be because I am in the niche.

332

This thing that happens in the early 2000s, like the New York Times would talk about HBO as though this was,

333

you know, the thing that everyone was consuming it was probably very important to people who read the New York Times.

334

Not only is this the sickest burn I have ever heard, it's also kind of true.

335

The finale of HBO's Succession, one of the greatest TV shows of this decade, had a series high of 2.9 million views.

336

Young Sheldon's series finale had 9 million, and that wasn't even the highest viewed episode.

337

I think that that is crazy, but now I understand why.

338

Young Sheldon is a broadcast show.

339

It is mass appeal by design.

340

Succession is specialized.

341

It appeals to a narrower audience who is more invested.

342

It's not fungible!

343

Now this isn't a strict dichotomy.

344

As broadcast and cable evolve side by side, I think there were shows that blended the best of both worlds.

345

30 Rock and Psych followed the broadcast formula.

346

They were workplace procedurals, but they were weird.

347

The West Wing was also broadcast, but was written like a cable show, except the seasons were way longer.

348

This led to a lot of filler episodes and storylines, some of which were great!

349

Squeeze this piece of rye bread.

350

Now what do I do?

351

Most of which were terrible.

352

But we gotta just spend time with the characters in their world.

353

I think that's what I miss.

354

Weirdos with the air time to play.

355

Barry and Widow's Bay and Hax and Shrinking and Severance

356

and all the great shows today have incredible characters and worlds that I don't get to spend time with

357

because the plot keeps getting in the way!

358

I know what I sound like.

359

I know that that is a stupid thing to complain about, but it's my stupid thing, okay?

360

Television used to have space for this full spectrum of tight stories and shows about nothing.

361

But in the streaming age, things feel off balance.

362

So what changed?

363

Netflix seems to have learned from cable.

364

It didn't come in trying to do cheap shows.

365

It was sort of like a shock and awe campaign.

366

That was, I think, important for what Netflix was trying to do, which was not necessarily to get people to watch House of Cards but subscribe to the service.

367

That's how they win.

368

Streamers needed to offer something that broadcast and cable couldn't.

369

Something that played to their specific strengths.

370

They had venture capital to pay for stars.

371

They had algorithmic recommendations to reach more specific audiences and connect them to a more diverse array of creators and stories.

372

But most importantly, they weren't confined to an airtime.

373

They didn't need to worry about people missing an episode, or filling a time slot, or building in an ad break.

374

And that's really the big difference.

375

One is about trying to get people to watch specific shows at certain times so that you can sell their attention.

376

And the other is about getting people to pay for your service month after month.

377

Watching a television show in the same way that they would read a book.

378

You know, I have some spare time on Monday, I will watch an hour.

379

I have more spare time on Wednesday, I will watch two episodes.

380

Part of why maybe the storytelling I think does feel substantially different to audiences is, you know, those are very different.

381

That's a different mode of production.

382

And this different mode of production, big stars, small seasons, driven by plot, is only becoming more dominant as traditional broadcasters and cable networks launch their own platforms.

383

And I pay for more streaming subscriptions.

384

Because honestly, I think this is a good thing.

385

At least for storytelling.

386

It turns out you get better stories if writers aren't building the plane as they fly up.

387

But this has also really clarified what I miss about the pre-streaming era.

388

I miss when shows weren't so polished.

389

Even today's fangirl-friendly shows are adaptations.

390

The story is already written.

391

But TV used to be filled with dropped storylines and forgotten characters, the types of stuff that like fandoms could explore without consequence.

392

For long-running shows, writers would break the procedural format for just one episode to do something weird and fun.

393

A musical, a fourth wall break, a live show, a love letter to television as this unique and distinct medium.

394

So I guess the reason why TV doesn't hit the same way it used to is just because it isn't the same.

395

The fancy academic way that we could put it is, well, if you change the mode of production, you change what can be made.

396

And if you change what is made, you change the culture.

397

It's kind of weird knowing that the thing I loved about old TV shows was definitely a bug, not a feature.

398

space for things to get a little weird, and incentive to make dramatic choices that don't really have any other purpose than getting people to watch the next season.

400

Streaming has made it possible to tell stories in a new way and therefore tell new sorts of stories, ones that are way more precise and for audiences that are

401

so specific that you could only reach enough of them if you have an algorithm.

402

That's not a bad thing, it's just a different thing.

403

And I'll always have my DVDs and my completely unrelated hard drive, But I think it's time for me to stop focusing on the past, because it's getting in the way of me appreciating the present,

404

and all the ways TV is evolving.

405

What stories can only be told in this world, in this culture, with this technology?

Über diese Lektion

In dieser Lektion übst du Englisch lernen mit Videos, indem du dich mit einem Alltagsthema vertraut machst: Streaming-Dienste. Du wirst nicht nur verschiedene Redewendungen und Vokabeln zu diesem Thema lernen, sondern auch die natürliche Sprache und Intonation in einem lockeren Gespräch trainieren. Besonders geeignet ist das Video für Shadowing-Übungen, da die Sprache flüssig, aber verständlich ist – ideal, um deine Englische Aussprache zu verbessern.

Wichtige Vokabeln und Redewendungen

Streaming-Dienste: Plattformen wie Netflix oder Amazon Prime, über die man Videos online anschaut.
To cut the cable: "Den Kabelanschluss kündigen" – sich von herkömmlichem Fernsehen verabschieden.
Residuals: "Lohnfortzahlungen" – Geld, das Schauspielern oder Machern für die Wiederverwertung ihrer Werke gezahlt wird.
Disposable income: "Verfügbares Einkommen" – Geld, das nach Zahlung aller Notwendigkeiten übrig bleibt.
Box set: "Box-Set" – eine Sammlung von DVDs oder Blu-Rays einer Fernsehserie.

Praxis-Tipps für Shadowing

Shadowing (oder "shadowspeak") ist eine bewährte Methode, um Aussprache und Flüssigkeit zu trainieren. Bei diesem Video beachte folgende Tipps: Die Sprache ist relativ locker und conversational, also achte auf die natürlichen Pausen und die Intonation, die Emotionen wie Nostalgie oder Humor ausdrückt. Beginne mit kurzen Abschnitten (z. B. die Geschichte über den Netflix-Disc für den Nintendo Wii) und wiederhole sie solange, bis du die Rhythmus und die Betonung genau nachahmen kannst. Achte darauf, die Redewendungen wie "I have no more purpose in life" mit der richtigen Betonung zu sagen – das macht die Sprache lebendiger. Wenn du Schwierigkeiten hast, die Geschwindigkeit zu halten, reduziere sie zunächst (viele Video-Player erlauben das) und erhöhe sie allmählich. So verbessern sich nicht nur deine Aussprache, sondern auch dein Hörverstehen. Nutze dieses Video also als shadowing site, um dein Englisch in Alltagssituationen zu stärken!

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
