1
Oh, thank you.
2
I'm looking for someone who I can relax with, someone who can be a best friend with me.
3
We can go on adventures together, traveling.
4
Someone who's funny.
5
And who are we kidding?
6
Someone who's good looking, please.
7
If someone says like, no, no, no, personalities first, that's a lie, because we're attracted to looks first.
8
And then if they have a good personality, it's a perfect bonus.
9
First of all, just, you know, somebody that can keep up with me.
10
I'm on the move a lot.
11
Beyond that, you know, I'm very open.
12
I've dated, you know, a lot of different races, a lot of different body types, like a lot of different personalities.
13
To me, every human is like an interesting and unique person.
14
As long as you can keep a conversation, then, you know, I think we'll get along and I think that I'll like you.
15
Your name is Sogand and this is your story.
16
You are 24 years old.
17
For work you are a lawyer or paralegal.
18
You grew up in New York and cultural or ethnic background is Persian.
19
My name is Panta.
20
I'm 28.
21
I work as a production coordinator.
22
I grew up in Iran, Singapore and Canada.
23
My cultural background is Persian.
24
Yes.
25
Your name is John and this is your story.
26
You are 29 years old.
27
For work you are an IT.
28
You grew up in Seattle.
29
Your cultural or ethnic background is Italian Scottish?
30

31
The beard confuses people.
32
I'm actually 21.
33
For work, I am actually kind of IT.
34
I do computer programming and app development and stuff like that.
35
I grew up in Los Angeles and my cultural background is Jewish.
36
I guess ethnicity would be like Caucasian, European, Russian, stuff like that.
37
John, average white guy name.
38
That's the safest one I could call him.
39
If you had to guess my last name, would it be Smith?
40
Duh.
41
When did you come here?
42
I just signed a lease in March.
43
Oh really?
44
Congrats for moving to LA.
45
Thank you.
46
Thank you.
47
I'm in your turf now.
48
Yeah, no, this has been my home for the past 21 years.
49
People just often assume that from the Jewish thing that I'm cheap
50
and then from the rich thing that I'm stuck up
51
or pretentious because I went to private school
52
because I was in school with the Kardashians and Kendall and Kylie and yada yada yada.
53
As embarrassing as it is, I did ask Kendall out a number of times.
54
But on like the third or fourth time, she said no. And then the next day, Kylie came up to me and kicked me in the balls and said,
55
don't ask my sister out again.
56
The only thing that will really make me angry is if someone touches my sister.
57
We were going to summer school, sports camp.
58
She comes crying to me that a boy slapped her.
59
And the next morning I went on his bus and got everybody that was my friends, pretty much everyone in the bus to cover me up and I went up to him and I said, did you hit my sister?
60
He's like, yeah, I sure did.
61
And so he slapped me in the face and my glasses fell off.
62
I had glasses at that time.
63
So I don't know what took over me.
64
I had both of his hands in one hand, put my glasses on and he was bloody in the face a little bit.
65
So his mom comes the next day saying who beat my son up
66
and and somebody said he hit a girl and then his mom started hitting him.
67
I'm going to say that you have wanted to be in a band.
68
And paired with that, I think your guilty music pleasure is like singing in your car.
69
But like really like belting it to the songs and like you just let loose when you're alone in the car.
70
And I would say that your ultimate pump up song is Intro by the XX.
71
No idea what that is.
72
Yes, I have wanted to be in a band.
73
I actually was in a band for a year and a half in Japan.
74
In a Japanese band.
75
Oh, that's really cool.
76
Guilty Musical Pleasure.
77
It's terrible.
78
Justin Bieber.
79
Oh.
80
His new CD.
81
His new CD.
82
It's an ultimate pump -up song.
83
Currently it's Ed Sheeran Shape of You.
84
Okay.
85
What you think of me?
86
I thought you have wanted to be in a band.
87
Your guilty musical pleasure is gangster rap.
88
And your ultimate pop song is Bohemian Rhapsody.
89
Yeah, I have wanted to be in a band.
90
I have some best friends that are singers and stuff.
91
I'm just not musically gifted like that.
92
You're a computer guy.
93
You can do the mixing and the matching.
94
That's so much different than what I do.
95
But it's something that I'm super interested in.
96
Yeah.
97
But I just, ugh, I don't have the time or patience for that.
98
My guilty pleasure, I took it as not like, who do I like to listen to, but like, what I like to do.
99
My guilty pleasure is like, you know, singing in traffic, singing in the car.
100
What do you sing?
101
I'll rap to the Kendrick.
102
I pick up the songs quickly and I'll just start rapping along with them.
103
Would you rap something for me?
104
Oh, God.
105
Only if you lay down a beat.
106
Oh, okay.
107
See, you're gonna put me on the spot, I'll put you on the spot with me.
108
Oh, man.
109
Okay, let's do this.
110
Ay.
111
Just sitting here in two different chairs, just sitting here without a care.
112
Got the black foil here, got the white wall there, and she's got some pretty nice hair.
113
Oh, thank you.
114
That was, that was, that was dope.
115
That was dope.
116
And then my ultimate pump -up song is and always will be Eye of the Tiger.
117
I was thinking of some sort of epic rock song, so I was pretty close.
118
I was like, Bohemian Rhapsody is pretty.
119
No, Bohemian Rhapsody is great.
120
I will always sing the crap out of that.
121
But Eye of the Tiger is like that pump -up.
122
It's like Rocky and Rocky III running across the beach.
123
You said you were in a band in Japan.
124
What was your role?
125
I was the vocalist.
126
I studied instruments when I was little but I can't play a percent of my life depended on it.
127
I can't.
128
I'll just sing.
129
Alright, well can you, you know, I rapped for you.
130
Can you sing me one of your old songs? In Japanese.
131
Okay, one of the Japanese songs.
132
I don't think I'm going to be able to do it.
133
No, that was fantastic.
134
I've dated nerds, geeks, musicians.
135
I've dated many races like black, white, Asian, Persian.
136
People are people.
137
I don't care what your religion is.
138
I don't care what political party you're supporting.
139
I don't care what your color is.
140
If you're a good person and if I feel attracted to who you are as a person, then I like that.
141
In terms of religious beliefs, I dated a Christian girl for two and a half years.
142
You know, her grandma tried to give me a cross every time I stepped through her door.
143
It doesn't bother me.
144
Religion doesn't affect me.
145
I don't, you know, particularly care what religion you are as long as you're just a nice person.
146
This is where we get deep and interesting.
147
Oh my God, this is hard.
148
In your family growing up, you practiced, I'm gonna go with something interesting.
149
I'm gonna say Baha 'i faith
150
And your current relationship with God or a creator is Strong but independent You do believe in the afterlife?
151
In my family I grew up practicing Islam.
152
I am spiritual
153
I respect every religion and I know every religion has good good lessons And so I take the good that I can.
154
So in Japan, I would pray in a temple.
155
In Iran, I would pray in a mosque.
156
Here, I've prayed in churches.
157
I'm open to going everywhere and taking in the energy that they have, the faith, the spirituality.
158
I don't like that there's different things.
159
I wish everybody would just get together, because it's a cause of a lot of wars, and I hate that.
160
My current relationship with God, the creator, is on and off, because I believe in a higher power.
161
When the emergency situation happens, I find myself praying.
162
Mm -hmm, but like I think of the world as the like the energy the universe
163
or higher power I don't know where we come from something happened.
164
I don't know it could be aliens.
165
I don't know.
166
I have no idea actually Afterlife, I don't know the answer I do believe in possible like reincarnation people coming back as people
167
or as like do you believe in like anything?
168
I so you'll come back is like a chicken a dog or Oh my god.
169
Well, in your family you grew up practicing the Jewish religion, because you told me that earlier. And your current...
170
Don't hate me.
171
Your current relationship with God or Creator is on hold.
172
It's on hold, man.
173
You know, you're being spiritual right now.
174
It's on hold.
175
I wrote that you do believe in the afterlife.
176
Yes, in my family I did grow up practicing Judaism.
177
My relationship, I want to, you know what, I'm going to steal those words.
178
I like that.
179
My relationship with God is on hold.
180
You know?
181
It's not gone.
182
It's just on hold, guys.
183
Yeah.
184
Interestingly enough, the Jewish faith and something that I derived from it is that we do not believe in an afterlife.
185
Yeah, we'll have a funeral, bury the person in the coffin in the ground, and then we'll go home and party.
186
Because we more celebrate life than more death, you know.
187
It's just we die and that's it, but that kind of shouldn't be a scary thing to us.
188
You take your life and you live it the way you should live it, which is as free and as open and enjoyable in every single moment.
189
When I first came and sat down and saw you, I said that I would go on a second date
190
or date with you after all this i would keep my answer the same you're an attractive person
191
and you look like everything in your outfit was thought out decisively
192
and that you had some semblance of organization
193
and control of your life thank you when i saw you first i thought that i I would go out with you.
194
And after talking to you, I haven't changed my mind.
195
I just wanted to scribble to scare you to think.
196
So you think I'd change the answer, but I didn't.
197
I wrote same.
198
I just wrote scribbles.
199
And the reason being is, well, I don't know you, but just from the looks, you seem smart, you seem kind,
200
you seem well -cultured and easygoing.
201
Just the vibe that I got. But yeah.
202

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
