Creando lección...
1
No, sometimes I use my voices for evil, man.
2
I won't lie.
3
If I don't have my way,
4
like when I go to drive-thrus and they screw up my order, oh, I'm evil.
5
I go back around and I start ordering,
6
but I throw them off by doing this, right?
7
They'll come on the speaker.
8
Welcome to Fantastic Burger.
9
How can I help you?
10
I'll do this.
11
Hello, sir?
12
Hi.
13
Can I please have a double cheeseburger,
14
an order fries, and a shake?
15
Double cheeseburger, order fries, and a shake.
16
Oh my god, yes.
17
Then I pull up.
18
Oh, they're not expecting me.
19
Oh, the look on their face is the best, right?
20
Did you just order?
21
They come back with a bag of food, you know.
22
Would you like ketchup?
23
That's where I let them have it.
24
Oh my god, yes.
25
Hell yeah, man.
26
Oh, and by the way,
27
before I forget, I know I have a habit of my shows of sometimes throwing a little Spanish in there.
28
If you don't understand Spanish, I do apologize, okay?
29
I promise I will be translating.
30
I don't want anybody freaking out or reporting me to the management with concerns or issues, you know.
31
What the hell is going on in there?
32
What kind of show is this?
33
No, somebody better hit the SAP button on that sonbitch real quick.
34
I didn't pay good money to hear some Samoan speak Spanish.
35
I'm not Samoan.
36
I'm fluffy.
37
I didn't know why the guy thought I was Samoan, you know?
38
And I've had this happen a couple times where people go, Are you Hawaiian?
39
I'm like, no. No, not just a shirt.
40
I thought it was just a shirt,
41
but no. How could it just be a shirt?
42
Just because you wear a freaking sombrero,
43
That doesn't make you Mexican.
44
I see white people wearing a sarape,
45
walking a donkey with a sombrero.
46
You don't look at him and go, hola, amigo.
47
No, you're like, hey, Ted.
48
Hi.
49
You know, and he's walking around.
50
Hola.
51
Come on, stupid donkey.
52
Donkey!
53
Come on.
54
I don't get it, man.
55
I'm just trying to do my own thing.
56
But it's funny, though.
57
I didn't know why the guy thought I was Hawaiian until I actually went to Hawaii.
58
I found out that Hawaiian people actually look like swollen Mexicans.
59
They do.
60
I got off the plane,
61
I looked around, I was like,
62
oh, my God, my family!
63
Even they were like, Aloha, brother.
64
Lo que le.
65
Malo, malo.
66
Orale.
67
I loved Hawaii.
68
Hawaii was great, man.
69
They have a lot of different cultures there.
70
They have a lot of Asian people a lot a lot of Koreans I know this
71
because I got a couple of shirts tailored at some places
72
and every time I'd go in I was always a Korean lady an older Korean lady who was me
73
I'd walk in and this one lady always had a comment to make.
74
I'm there for a week and every day she had a different comment
75
I walk in one day and I couldn't say anything either because she was 75 years old.
76
I can't say nothing back You know,
77
but there I am walking in The lady behind the counter,
78
oh, oh, look at who's here.
79
Look at who's here.
80
Oh, shit, we're gonna work hard today.
81
Ashana, Ashana!
82
Whatever.
83
Make fun of me.
84
But I can handle it, though, you know.
85
I can handle it.
86
Some people say, well, you know,
87
Gabriel, you go up there and you make fun of yourself.
88
No, I don't.
89
I come up here and I tell you the things that I heard people say.
90
There's a difference, you know,
91
sometimes I set myself up for jokes and I don't realize it.
92
Three years ago, I bought a Beetle, not even thinking.
93
That's not the joke, shut up.
94
See, I can't even tell you guys this story already.
95
I wasn't thinking, I bought the car because it was affordable,
96
economical, brand new freaking Beetle for like 17 grand.
97
I was like, ah, first new car.
98
I go to show it off at my friend Martin's house.
99
I thought it was nice.
100
I pull up, you know.
101
Martin!
102
He lives in the hood,
103
I don't get out the car.
104
Across the street there are these gang members.
105
The kind of gang members,
106
they don't really get into,
107
you know, like shooting people and stuff like that they just hang out on the porch and talk a lot of smack.
108
And so I'm there in a Beatle and across the street I hear this, right?
109
I'm like, Martin!
110
And over here I hear, Orale!
111
Hey, what's up guys?
112
How's it going?
113
How'd you get in there, is it?
114
Hurry up, Martin!
115
Two months later, I go back to pick him up.
116
Now I've had some time to work on the car, right?
117
I put some rims on it, some stickers.
118
I put a chip in the motor so it goes faster.
119
I thought it was bad, right?
120
I pull up.
121
Martin!
122
Orale!
123
Uh-uh, I'm not turning around.
124
Hey!
125
Hey!
126
I don't see you.
127
Yoo-hoo!
128
Oh!
129
Hey!
130
What?
131
Check it out, eh?
132
It's the Fat and the Furious.
133
I didn't even wait, man.
134
Got rid of that car, man.
135
I traded it in and got myself a big old SUV.
136
It was nice for a while.
137
This car freaking sucked on mileage though, man.
138
It got 11 miles to the gallon.
139
You cannot be badass in a car that kills gas like I kill tacos.
140
You can't You can't be at the stoplight trying to intimidate other cars, you know what?
141
20 bucks right there Hell no,
142
man, but it was kind of cool It had a GPS navigational system in it
143
and on star which was really cool You know I'm driving
144
and all of a sudden this girl's talking to me right here and up ahead Woo-hoo!
145
A three-quarter tenths of a mile left turn.
146
And I'm like, whatever you say, baby.
147
Being a big guy, I've noticed that people feel compelled to tell me certain things after shows.
148
I get people that'll pull me aside and go,
149
Gabriel, you're a very funny guy.
150
You're very talented.
151
Don't you think perhaps you're living a little excess in life?
152
And I'm like, well, I love to eat.
153
Well, don't you want to live to be 100?
154
Well, not if I can't eat tacos.
155
And as many as I want.
156
You know, a lot of people think that just
157
because you work out and lift weights and you eat right
158
and you do what people tell You to do that you'll live a long life.
159
Maybe you will But you know why do people measure life by the years instead of how good the years were?
160
I'm measured by freaking, you know what I mean?
161
What good is it to live to be a hundred
162
but you didn't do anything you didn't go out
163
and kick it with friends You didn't go out
164
and get drunk at some club and wake up in an alley one time You know,
165
what good is it?
166
You stayed in the house and you were safe.
167
And I lived to be a hundred.
168
You know, I don't know.
169
That's why I, um, you know,
170
I have a very big amount of respect for the crocodile hunter.
171
Rest in peace.
172
But, come on, you guys.
173
Yeah, he died at 44 years old, but...
174
He died doing what he loves to do.
175
Not a lot of people can say that.
176
If I die tomorrow from over-reading,
177
God bless me, that's exactly how it was supposed to be.
178
You know how much adrenaline he had every single day risking his life?
179
You know how you feel when you're about to cross the street
180
and a car go and your ass almost gets hit and you're like and then you're hysterical.
181
Oh my God, I almost died.
182
Touch me, touch me right here.
183
Touch me right here.
184
And the rest of the day, you appreciate life.
185
You're like looking at the birds or at the sky.
186
Oh, you're loving life.
187
He did that every day.
188
That's why every day I try to live just a little bit of my life like I might not be here tomorrow.
189
Because you never know.
190
I don't want to die tomorrow knowing I could have had a piece of cake tonight.
191
Shoot.
192
That's when people tell me,
193
why don't you work out?
194
Why don't you live weights?
195
What if I'm going to die tomorrow?
196
I don't want to die sore.
197
I want to die full.
198
When the corner cuts me open,
199
I want the whole room to smell like potato wedges.
200
He's gonna go, this guy knew how to live right here, man.
201
Thank you.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
