I'm eating something.

What are you eating?

I'm eating a Tums.

Did you pay for it?

Yes.

Oh, so it's not a food heist to start us off?

No, it's not.

Oh, dang.

Is Tums food?

I don't know. Is?

This one has like a candy shell.

Oh. And so.

I think anything with a candy shell counts as food.

Right?

Yeah.

You can put a candy shell around a squirrel.

So anytime I travel, this has happened to you.

Tell me if it's TMI.

Okay.

But I get more acid, right?

My stomach's like, you were eating at this time, I think is what it's saying.

When you were on the trip, why aren't you eating now?

Does that make sense?

I get heartburn.

So I only get heartburn if I travel and I just came back from Hawaii.

So the week after I change time zones,

my body is annoyed that I'm not eating at the same times that I did at the time zones.

Does that happen at the start of a trip?

Yeah.

It happens at the end.

It takes about a week after I get back.

So it's really the only time that I get any heartburn is that.

My digestion is always better on a trip than it is at home.

Interesting.

And I don't know what I eat at home that...

ruins it.

Mm -hmm.

Um, and my current, my prevailing theory is cereal.

Uh -huh.

Because I love breakfast cereal, but I never eat it when I'm traveling

because I've never been to a hotel or restaurant that has the milk at the temperature that I like.

And that just kind of ruins the whole thing.

What is the temperature that you like milk?

It's supposed to be cold.

Okay, good.

I just...

Appropriately cold.

I, I, I really thought you might be like, straight from the udder.

Yeah.

Hot milk.

I mean, you like your drinks lukewarm, normally, so.

Hmm.

Okay.

No, but milk has to be cold.

Milk has to be very cold.

Okay.

Well, when I used to have cereal, I liked my milk very cold also.

I haven't had it in, like, 30 years.

Yeah.

30 years?

I remember when I was a kid reading Wrinkle in Time, and in the first chapter,

she and her brother are making warm milk on a pan on the stove.

And I'm like, who in their right mind would ever want warm milk?

That doesn't make, it did not and still does not make sense to me.

No. So Donald, I did eat cereal and stuff when I was young.

And then I went to Korea when I was 19.

And they eat real food for breakfast.

They just have rice and kimchi and stuff.

And I'm like, you can do that?

I don't have to eat this gross breakfast food that everyone always eats, I can just like have a sandwich.

And when I get back, I'm like, nah, I'm going to get up and eat something that I like.

See, here's the thing.

I rarely eat cereal for breakfast.

It is breakfast cereal, but I eat it as a snack throughout the day.

Okay.

If I'm hungry mid -afternoon, cereal.

That's interesting to me because there are no cereals that I just actively like.

They're too sugary.

I don't like sweet things.

See, I don't like sweet things either.

My favorite cereal in the world is Wheat Chex.

Okay, I can see that.

I feel like that has a really good flavor to it.

Hmm.

And it isn't sweetened.

I don't think that I would like

Wheat Chex because when I've eaten them, like, I like Chex mixed with lots of salt and stuff.

Oh, okay.

And so maybe then.

But I imagine that I wouldn't like the Wheat Chex, say, on their own.

But yeah, I just don't like, my family all thinks it's bizarre.

Like, pancakes.

Like, I don't really like pancakes.

What?

Amen, brother.

No!

Oh, you're both insane.

100

Like...

101

And my wife loves pancakes.

102

I'll have them...

103

She makes them a lot.

104

I'll have a pancake as a dessert.

105

That's fair.

106

After a meal.

107

Like, it's a cake with sugar on it.

108

No, no, no, that's totally fair.

109

It's like eating a donut, right?

110

Yeah.

111

Again, another breakfast thing.

112

I don't like stuff like that.

113

Uh -huh.

114

Like, donuts?

115

Yeah, I'm lactose intolerant, and I don't like sugar.

116

Why would I want to eat pancakes?

117

So, pancakes don't really do it for me.

118

Uh, eggs on toast get a thumbs up for me.

119

Like an egg sandwich.

120

But a lot of the stuff people eat for breakfast just isn't my thing.

121

I like eggs.

122

Eggs with rice more than toast.

123

Anyway.

124

In all fairness, yes.

125

We over here in America have probably the most sugary breakfast ever.

126

That said, I think the convenient breakfast over here is sugar.

127

But when we lived in Germany, we would make American breakfast for friends and like the missionaries and stuff,

128

and everyone loved it.

129

I feel like the kind of classic, I don't know what you'd call it, farm breakfast in America.

130

Eggs, bacon, potato.

131

Eggs, bacon, hash browns, sausage, maybe some pancakes on the side, an omelet.

132

I like that stuff.

133

We do that really well.

134

We do.

135

That is a spectacular breakfast.

136

That's a lot of work.

137

Yes.

138

So you rarely have it at home.

139

Anyways, that's not what we're here for.

140

We're here because, audience, we haven't done a Q &A in forever.

141

So we are going to do a Q &A because I have lots of questions from Times. So, yeah.

142

If you can possibly remind us which episode it came from.

143

I will do my best from all the airheads.

144

Because we so stay on topic.

145

Indeed.

146

all righty um well how apt

147

that we have this uh this it comes from naren 25 i don't have the episode

148

but he says hello americans what do dan and brandon mean

149

when they say biscuits i'm in england

150

and what we call biscuits cannot be purchased from chicken shops yes thanks oh okay yeah yeah that is

151

that is a legitimate question totally yeah uh an american biscuit is kind of like what in the UK

152

you would call a scone.

153

Yeah.

154

But it's usually saltier.

155

Yeah.

156

Not sweet.

157

Not sweets.

158

You don't put, people do put jam on biscuits.

159

You do put jam on them.

160

You put honey on them.

161

But the basic bread itself is kind of dry, kind of crumbly, savory.

162

Lots of butter buttery.

163

Yeah, so you would eat them.

164

They're a lot more common in the South than they are here where we live, but we still make them a lot.

165

My wife has a fantastic biscuit recipe.

166

Biscuits and gravy are kind of a Southern meal that is really tasty.

167

It's very bad for you.

168

You should try it when you come to America,

169

particularly if you can get to the South to one of the good restaurants that'll do stuff like that.

170

Yeah, there's several YouTube channels that do this,

171

but there's one I watch where they will take American foods over to a British high school and give them American foods.

172

And the episode where they gave them biscuits and gravy was amazing

173

because they thought it sounded ludicrous because they think of biscuits as sweet cookies.

174

Yep.

175

And then when they saw biscuits and gravy, you know, it just looks like somebody threw up on some old rolls.

176

But then when they tasted it, it was the best thing they ever had in their lives.

177

I mean, the British and their gravy are a thing.

178

So I would expect that they would like it.

179

Just they have to know what American biscuit is.

180

Yeah.

181

Well, and the sausage gravy you get in biscuits and gravy doesn't look like a British gravy at all.

182

No, it doesn't.

183

It's a white gravy with sausage in it.

184

It's very tasty.

185

Yeah.

186

It is a breakfast food sometimes.

187

Yes, it is.

188

There you go.

189

Segways.

190

I've had this.

191

Does it count as a segue if we come back around to the first thing we already finished talking about?

192

Sure?

193

We make the rules.

194

It's a callback.

195

Ah, that's better.

196

Alrighty.

197

It's a reprise.

198

Reprise.

199

This comes from an old episode.

200

I've had this written down for a while ago.

201

But from DMI 5664, they said, you really just blew by Dan saying he'd love to mash two unrelated shows together,

202

but didn't come up with any examples.

203

That might be a fun topic.

204

Dan, do you have two unrelated shows that you would just to smash together and see what happens?

205

Unrelated shows that I want to smash together and see what happens.

206

Like The Godfather and Little House on the Prairie?

207

Movies?

208

Oh, that's a movie, you're right.

209

Or TV shows?

210

Breaking Bad and The Little House on the Prairie.

211

I mean, Breaking Bad and The Little House on the Prairie sounds phenomenal.

212

I would watch every episode and the After Hours podcast.

213

That was the one I thought of.

214

Somebody cooking cocaine because they didn't have meth back then, and getting all the cowboys hooked.

215

And it's just, that's, that's.

216

Yeah.

217

Snake oil salesman goes around from town to town.

218

But sells cocaine.

219

Selling his tinctures.

220

He gets people addicted.

221

Yeah, that sounds really good.

222

That's what I'd watch.

223

So that's my answer.

224

Thanks for answering for me.

225

No way.

226

There's a new

227

Little House on the Prairie series on Netflix.

228

There is?

229

And I watched the first episode with my 10 -year -old.

230

And we were fairly meh on it.

231

So what I would like to do is smash up

232

Ted Lasso with an actual sports show

233

So you actually have a sports team doing a thing while they're doing all the drama and stuff

234

Rather than it being kind of like this

235

Like Ted Lasso and Friday Night Lights Yeah Where it's small town football but everyone's nice and happy

236

Well I just want

237

Ted Lasso to actually have a storyline across the season

238

Giving him a storyline feels like it's completely anathema to seasons two and three.

239

Right.

240

Then season one had it.

241

I know.

242

And it was the good season.

243

And so if they were trying to actually do something with the sports team

244

and learn a lesson and have an actual underdog sports story alongside all of the great drama.

245

Yeah.

246

then the season would have been, seasons two and three would have been good.

247

Yeah, I know.

248

Rather than season two having some good episodes and then us not even wanting to watch season three.

249

Yeah, I'm so glad that you share my distaste for seasons two

250

and three because our listeners are going to hate me for it, but this time they have to hate you for it with me.

251

I mean, I don't know if this is a controversial opinion, right?

252

Like, Ted Lasso, season two, is really well acted.

253

There's some really great episodes.

254

I love that they delved into panic attacks with him and some of the, you know, like, but it floundered.

255

It just, it didn't know what it was about.

256

It didn't know what it was about.

257

And plus, I just cannot get behind a story about the owner of the sports team

258

and the young player having a romance.

259

It's a power imbalance that, like, they did it as well as you possibly could.

260

But if those genders were reversed, everyone would have the ick and I had the ick the whole time.

261

I'm like, you show this powerful woman and she's got a great arc in season one.

262

Why can't she find someone that she belongs with that isn't monetarily beholden to her?

263

Yeah, that isn't her employee and half her age.

264

They spent so much time on that.

265

It was as well as it was acted.

266

Both actors did a great job.

267

I was bothered by it the whole time.

268

And they didn't deal with the parts of it that bothered me.

269

It just, yeah.

270

Okay, so here's my pitch.

271

All of the Ted Lasso main characters as the bridge crew of a starship.

272

Oh, yes.

273

Star Trek Ted Lasso.

274

Oh, yeah.

275

He's the captain.

276

No, he's not the captain.

277

He's the first officer.

278

No, I think he's the captain.

279

And Rebecca is like the diplomat or something.

280

No, she's the admiral that's on the ship that you have to cater to.

281

So she could overrule you at any time.

282

Yeah.

283

All right.

284

What's Keeley?

285

Keeley has to be communications.

286

Communications.

287

Right.

288

I suppose that makes sense. Or doctor.

289

Keeley as the doctor, I would love.

290

Yeah.

291

Roy?

292

Roy, security officer, obviously.

293

Yeah.

294

Jamie Tartt as the helmsman.

295

Yeah, sure.

296

That makes sense.

297

That makes perfect sense.

298

This actually all makes a lot of sense.

299

Yeah.

300

Yeah.

301

First officer would be Beard.

302

Yeah.

303

And then what's his name?

304

Rebecca's assistant.

305

Is he engineering?

306

Engineering is Nate the Great.

307

Nate the Great. Is engineering.

308

Yes.

309

Oh, I love this.

310

Okay.

311

This is what I want to see.

312

Yeah.

313

That could be a lot of fun.

314

Yeah.

315

That's a good show right there.

316

Transpose them.

317

Just want to watch it.

318

right now.

319

All right, make it happen, Dan.

320

Okay.

321

Make it so.

322

We have the power to waive our full point.

323

I might commission art of that.

324

Because I want to see all the Ted Lasso characters in Starfleet uniforms.

325

That'd be awesome.

326

That would be great.

327

With, you know, the soccer logo just kind of delicately worked into the uniform somehow.

328

There you are.

329

Yep, I'm on board.

330

That's fan art.

331

Send it to Dan.

332

There you go.

333

But not AI art.

334

No. No. We don't want that.

335

All right.

336

Next question.

337

Next question.

338

From JSwag Audio, what would Emily's wish have been, Brandon?

339

This context is from the newlywed game question.

340

Brandon gets one true wish.

341

No monkey paw involved.

342

What do you wish for?

343

You were like, oh, I know what Emily would wish for.

344

We never circle back around.

345

Oh, yeah.

346

She would wish for all guns to vanish and no one would be able to make any more.

347

No, I'm not even joking.

348

Really?

349

She's mentioned that multiple times.

350

She just, the violence in the world bothers her.

351

And she doesn't want to take away people's free will.

352

But if she could take away the weapons that they used to make so much damage,

353

that there were no guns or anything, you know, gun -like.

354

Right.

355

If you had to go back to stabbing a dude, she feels like maybe there would be less of it.

356

I'm reminded of an Einstein quote.

357

That delights me.

358

Yeah, yeah, World War III will be with sticks and stones.

359

I don't know what

360

World War III will be fought with, but I know that

361

World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.

362

That's it, yeah.

363

That's a good quote.

364

So, that was Emily's wish.

365

She's expressed that to me somewhat jokingly, somewhat realistically.

366

She whispers it to me because she doesn't want

367

Scar to hear because he would not like all the guns vanishing.

368

You know what I would do?

369

I have this list in my head of if I were in charge. of America.

370

Okay.

371

Which is a good reason that I should not be in charge of America.

372

Okay.

373

If I were, day one, giant trucks, completely illegal.

374

If your pickup truck, if the hood of your pickup truck is above like four feet, no longer street legal.

375

Day two, no golf courses.

376

No golf courses?

377

Every golf course becomes a public park.

378

Why do you hate golf courses?

379

Well, because golf is dumb.

380

and also because it bothers me that there's all this wonderful green space

381

that is limited to use for a very narrow window of people.

382

You know that a lot of, like, there are a lot of very rich person golf courses, but the majority of them are not.

383

Oh, I know that.

384

Yeah.

385

Normal people, lots of people going and enjoying them.

386

There's a golf course right by my house, and it bothers me every time I drive through it.

387

Okay.

388

I'm seeing some of the bias here.

389

Giant trucks, gone.

390

Okay.

391

Golf courses, gone.

392

What's day three?

393

You've only gotten that far?

394

I think I should stop at day two.

395

Okay.

396

People already hate me enough.

397

We'll let people get over the giant trucks and golf courses.

398

Cats?

399

You're just going to kill all the cats.

400

There's no way you could kill all the cats.

401

They are nature's perfect urban predator.

402

They will outlast us all.

403

They will outlast us all.

404

I hope Adam does not kill you after this episode.

405

I know.

406

He's going to be sad.

407

And Adam being sad is like the one reason that I would slightly hesitate to nuke all the golf courses.

408

Fair enough.

409

All righty.

410

So this is from a whole bunch of humans.

411

I saw this consistently commented.

412

Orcs and goblins are separate beings.

413

They have evolved into two different things.

414

Oh, my gosh. Do we?

415

Are these people complaining because we talked about Tolkien's original definition that had them as essentially identical,

416

and then D &D has split them into different things, and so somebody's complaining because they think D &D is real?

417

Like, you guys know that orcs and goblins are made up, right?

418

Telling us that I'm wrong about them is laughable.

419

What are they actually mad about?

420

So finish I love me finish yes, so most of them when we were doing the Dark Lord episode where Brandon you know Sarah tipsy

421

Lee said you know they're the same thing we made a call Uruk -hai same thing a lot of people

422

Had taken the position that they are not the same thing

423

and that they are different and they want in D &D They aren't but in the real world.

424

They are the same thing I I I Yes I've talked to Saruman Many of Brandon's Best friends are orcs

425

Yes No Servants Servants They are minions

426

It's worse Yeah Ugh Alright To answer the question Lackeys Lackeys is best

427

There you go

428

There we go

429

Okay So the position has not changed

430

No the position has not changed

431

Like in D &D Yeah they're different things

432

Yeah like You could come up with Ten different fantasy properties

433

That have orcs and goblins in them and they'll all treat orcs and goblins in a different way from each other.

434

But if you go to the historical source in Professor Tolkien's research, he talks about the fact that they are the same.

435

And he is the leading authority.

436

The leading authority.

437

Okay.

438

There you go, everyone.

439

Speaking of lackeys, David Fryer, 435, says, I think you guys are underestimating slimes.

440

Slimes are very powerful, but they're cheap and they set and forget.

441

Putting out slimes is like putting up a chain link fence, but without the setup, and it's even cheaper

442

They don't stop people who are determined, but they keep out nosy people.

443

Has this convinced you at all?

444

Yeah, it's a good argument.

445

I'll bump them up a slot based on your argument

446

Very well reasoned.

447

There you go.

448

I want a t -shirt

449

That says I think you guys are underestimating slimes

450

That's my new idea.

451

Yeah, I'll give it to you.

452

Here's my counter -argument to you.

453

I know a lot of really annoying heroes that could not defeat most of the other minions,

454

but then because they're slimes that they can go practice on, they end up becoming an actual pain.

455

If there were no slimes, if you just started with the direwolves, these people would all be eaten,

456

and then they wouldn't be a problem in the future.

457

But I will bump them up.

458

They're F tier, then they go to D tier.

459

They go to D tier.

460

Okay.

461

Can you have dire slimes?

462

Is that a thing?

463

Slimes come in all kinds of varieties.

464

The problem is some of the varieties, like some for some reason, drop like a full bar of gold.

465

I know.

466

It's ludicrous.

467

It is ludicrous.

468

Like I didn't pay them that bar of gold.

469

Where did it come from?

470

They don't give it to me.

471

Then the stupid hero gets a bar of gold and he learns that killing slimes sometimes gives him a bar of gold.

472

It's aggravating.

473

Maybe they create it like.. pearls.

474

Yeah, they probably do.

475

I don't pay enough attention to slimes, obviously.

476

Is gold bars just slime excrement?

477

Maybe.

478

If that's the case, I'd put them up to sea at that point.

479

They'd become a very useful income source.

480

No, no, you can't.

481

The Darkler doesn't get that income.

482

That's not income we get.

483

You're mistaking.

484

That's non -taxable income?

485

Yeah, for some reason when the minions get killed, they sometimes have awesome stuff on them that they weren't using that I didn't give them.

486

Yeah.

487

Right? this doesn't make any sense if i kill a thousand lackeys i get nothing but this

488

doofus walks in and suddenly there is a vorpal sword on the on

489

that knoll yeah and it's like i didn't give him a vorpal sword

490

if i did he would have killed you no

491

it's just a vorpal sword just there just i haven't figured

492

it out yet ridiculous yeah all right what's next what is next we have from

493

494

495

496

what's his name Thanos who's in it right he's the dead body so he's the the priest who's the old priest

497

The old priest.

498

Who's cantacarous and disagreeable.

499

Is the eagle.

500

Sam the eagle.

501

Right?

502

Okay.

503

Could be Fozzie Bear.

504

What about Sweetums?

505

No, because he's articulate.

506

He has to deliver these lines.

507

And some of them are crude.

508

And Sam the eagle delivering them might be funny.

509

Yeah.

510

But Sam is not a crude person.

511

He's not.

512

I can't see him saying those lines.

513

But can you see any of the Muppets?

514

Can I see any of the Muppets?

515

animal, but he doesn't...

516

I mean, obviously Pepe the Prawn would say all of that dialogue.

517

Oh, he would.

518

Okay.

519

And he wouldn't feel bad about it.

520

Alright, Pepe the Prawn is cast as Thanos.

521

Young Priest is our human, right?

522

Yep, Young Priest is our human.

523

Okay.

524

Miss Piggy as the the matron who kind of runs the church?

525

That is the casting, yeah.

526

Yeah?

527

Uh -huh.

528

Alright, who's Benoit Blanc?

529

Kermit?

530

Benoit Blanc.

531

No, he's the Swedish chef.

532

You just can't understand him.

533

That would be so great.

534

He comes in.

535

I don't understand what you're saying.

536

I know you're a brilliant detective.

537

What are you saying?

538

I would also love Benoit Blanc as Dr. Teeth.

539

Yeah.

540

Gonzo would make a good Benoit Blanc also.

541

Doing the accent.

542

Mm -hmm.

543

Uh -huh.

544

Yeah.

545

That's actually the most funny, because the Swedish stuff gets old after one scene.

546

Mm -hmm.

547

But Gonzo doing a Benoit Block accent with his chickens, trying to solve the crime, is...

548

That works really well.

549

That works the whole movie. So, yeah.

550

There you go.

551

There's some.

552

Oh, then Kermit.

553

Yeah, where do you put Kermit?

554

Kermit...

555

Kermit isn't in this movie.

556

Really?

557

You hear Kermit's voice on the phone.

558

Yeah.

559

He's the the person he is the gender swapped woman that runs the yeah

560

Construction equipment rental yeah, you know there you go.

561

We weren't we aren't forcing Kermit to deal with this

562

Yeah, the new Kermit voice is not great either.

563

So we're just gonna leave him out.

564

Okay.

565

Okay fair enough

566

You got a good Kermit voice.

567

You do have a good Kermit voice.

568

There you go.

569

All righty from X6402.

570

Am I the only person who has watched these and thought

571

Ben was quiet and in the room for every episode?

572

A lot of people, I don't think, know who Ben is.

573

We talk about him a lot.

574

For the new viewers, who is Ben?

575

Who is Ben?

576

First of all, I love this question because it is a correct usage of am I the only person who?

577

Because so often when you see this online, it's someone saying the most obvious thing that's ever occurred to anyone.

578

Whereas this is a genuinely wonderful question and I think is kind of niche.

579

Ben is our former roommate.

580

Brandon and I have never been roommates, but we have both been roommates with Ben.

581

Yep.

582

He is a computer programmer.

583

And he is a little bit the Sam the Eagle of our whole group, meaning he had a normal job.

584

He had a normal major.

585

Yeah.

586

And then all of his friends, for some reason, are all these weirdos who are fantasy nerds who want to become authors.

587

And he's a big fantasy nerd too, but he's not an artist.

588

And he has a real job.

589

And he dresses nicely.

590

He knew how to comb his hair to look not just combed, but classy.

591

And so the reason we reference

592

Ben a lot is, number one, he's our friend.

593

When Dan and I were in college, we started a writing group together and Ben was in it just because Ben's around.

594

He doesn't write, but we put him in our writing group.

595

He was in the Dave Wolverton class with us.

596

I think that some of the only writing he's done.

597

He has composed music.

598

He used to write music all the time on a little MIDI player in our dorm room.

599

But he is the guy that we like to joke with.

600

You know how you'll have a friend group and there will be one that's a little more serious.

601

And that is the person that's fun to poke.

602

Ben is fun to poke.

603

And getting Ben to just look at you and shake his head is an achievement.

604

Achievement, any day that you do that is a brighter day when Ben is tired of putting up with you.

605

There are lots of people who know us both really well.

606

Ben is the only one who created a chat group with the three of us to complain about stuff

607

we say on this show.

608

Yes.

609

And that is why we started saying, how's that been?

610

Because we knew he was listening and we knew he was going to complain to us.

611

Well, and he specifically called out, we don't have an intro or an outro.

612

And he's like, you guys need an outro.

613

And so the new outro was, how's that been?

614

And I'm sorry, I just said that and half of you turned off because you thought it was over, but it's not over yet.

615

Not over yet.

616

So that is Ben.

617

Ben is that friend that is fun to poke.

618

Yeah.

619

And so he's right now listening to this and being aggravated at us.

620

One of my favorite things that

621

Ben would do is back when we all played D &D together.

622

I remember there was one night when I was going to be able to join D &D,

623

which I wasn't often able to do because I had little kids before everyone else did.

624

Dan got married when the rest of us were bachelors, and it was this weird thing where, like, Dan has a family.

625

Dan has a wife and kids.

626

So there was one week when I was going to be able to be there, and Ben was like, great, we're going to get pizza.

627

And then you and all your roommates made plans, and you all had pizza, and then I had to cancel last minute,

628

and Ben was like, well, then we're not going to get pizza.

629

Because the rest of you all still wanted it, but Ben was like, Dan's not coming.

630

No pizza.

631

All right.

632

He is weird himself.

633

He's just a different genre of weird than us.

634

I think you just described like half the human race, Brandon.

635

So one of the, I think the episode that just went up two days ago at time of recording

636

is the you and I newlywed game.

637

Correct.

638

Yes.

639

In which we said that my favorite book was Dune.

640

Yes.

641

And he texted us.

642

Both of us.

643

Both of us to say, I thought your favorite book was Les Miserables and that is absolutely one of my favorite books.

644

But Dune does edge it out.

645

There you go.

646

All righty.

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.
