Hi everyone, it's Heidi again.

Today we are finally reacting to the South Park episode all about Mormons.

A lot of you have recommended this to me.

Hey baby, just went down for a nap.

I'm hopeful that we have enough time.

I just bought it for $2.99 on YouTube.

Even though I know you can go to a different website, but I don't remember what it is and I just feel better about this one.

I've watched a little bit of South Park.

And honestly, I'm really impressed with how many different topics this show is about.

I also came across just recently the cast of South Park.

I was impressed that under cast and actors, it was two dudes.

Wild.

Just so cool.

But anyway, if you like the video, make sure to like and subscribe.

Become a member if you want me to prioritize your comments or just support the channel.

Ow!

And let's do this.

I remember seeing this little disclaimer the last time I watched, I was going to say Lincoln Park, South Park.

And I just think it's so funny.

Of course, language and due to its content should not be viewed by anyone.

That's great.

I love these kind of shows.

Anyway, thank you.

He's already looking super nice and clean cut.

Stop, Scott.

Mormons are so nice.

Hey, my name's Gary.

All right, I'm gonna go kick his ass.

Yeah, go Stan, go Stan.

I love it.

There definitely is a thing about Mormons are so happy.

They're always smiling.

I love that they're like, ew, he's smiling.

Why is he so happy?

Get rid of that smile.

I just, that's so funny to me.

There's a song.

I actually have been thinking about this song in the last week

or so that you learn in little primaries at church

when you're a little kid and it's uh

if you chance to meet a frown do not let it stay quickly turn it upside down

and smile at that frown away no one likes a frowny face change it for a smile

and then it goes make the world a better place

and by smiling all the while anyway

that we sang a lot obviously we sang it a lot

because i still have the whole thing memorized and on one hand i think it's it's cool like yeah

try and be happy

but at the same time i think it's also important to feel your feelings

and be sad when when appropriate otherwise you're just holding things in

and i actually had some i think i've mentioned this in another video especially

when i was on my mission i had an issue where i would feel guilty

if i didn't feel happy or grateful to be there

because i was representing jesus christ and the church and everything

and so i felt like i was putting the church down or

misrepresenting if I wasn't just happy all the time in front of people at least

and that's not healthy it's really not healthy anyway kind of

interesting it's really tough being in a totally new place

but I think all you guys are really cool so I understand if there's initiation rights

dude stop it stop it stop being so nice

dude stop it do what you gotta do you can't hate him you know going over to his house for dinner Yes.

Yes.

What kind of family has a kid like that?

Okay, my turn.

Ooh, five.

One, two, three, four, five.

Living.

So many kids.

Well, it's great you could join us for family home evening, Stan.

What's that?

That's when we don't allow any TV and just entertain each other with music and stories.

They all play instruments.

Of course they do.

a family is the best

if you ever have to face a challenge baby sorry this is

so funny because it is so true mormon families are very very nice like

when you meet those very very their family has been in the church for generations

and that's all they've known their whole lives

and yes you get this exactly they all play instruments i

don't know why in the church i mean you have a

of opportunity to at least play the piano every song is

accompanied by a piano i don't know for some reason kids

are just into musical instruments the parents are very into that

and why why is that maybe it's just the culture that's

so spot on i mean being able to play a musical instrument is really cool it's very beautiful

so nothing against that but i just this is

so funny man alive

and my family we used to play life fairly often we would play um sorry a lot

that was a good time board games was the thing

and then family home evening every monday evening it's encouraged to

have a family home evening where you spend time with your family you do an activity have a treat or something

and then you do like a little lesson like teach your kids something about the gospel i'm trying to remember

but i'm sure

that leaders encourage people to invite outsiders people from outside the church to attend your family home evening

so that they could feel the spirit in your home

and with your family and stuff like that so that is just

so funny so very true i'm getting a kick out of this

if you couldn't tell now how about we do some scripture

readings from the book of mormon joseph smith lived in a

little american town in the early 1800s i'm gonna try

100

and not get triggered suddenly god

101

and jesus appeared before me you see you believe it now i mean that's what we learned Why would he make that?

102

Many people believe Joseph dum dum dum dum dum A Native American?

103

But your skin is white!

104

Yes, long ago all Native Americans were white.

105

We all came to America from Jerusalem.

106

I actually don't know if the belief was that all Native Americans were white, but that is kind of funny.

107

Also buried with the book are two seer stones, the Urm and Thummim, which will allow you to translate the writings.

108

It's very educational.

109

Find it and fulfill your destiny.

110

That's all true.

111

Is that true?

112

Kris Krispies!

113

Krispies!

114

Krispies!

115

Krispies!

116

Krispies!

117

Krispies!

118

Hey gang, let's wrap some more of them up in plastic wrap

119

and hand them out to the poor service is also a really really big thing in the church

120

which is very cool

121

um it's definitely very very service oriented so wrapping up treats

122

and you know giving them to the poor or to the neighbors

123

or something it's very very very common i guess not common

124

but like it's not far off man just the research

125

that they put into this like who did they talk to about this

126

or did they know mormons i'm just i'm so curious it's so funny mr harrison is a white guy right yeah

127

he's gonna end up liking them i 100 guarantee it

128

but um i do think that there's a big difference between telling people what you believe

129

and then being like you need to follow the plan

130

or you know you should go to church too

131

or whatever sure tell me about your religious beliefs you know let me know what your thing is about

132

but don't try and push that on me

133

or make me feel pressured to join you if that makes sense

134

but that is definitely something

135

that leaders of the mormon church encourage all members to do

136

is you know every member of missionary was one of the slogans i guess

137

that they used when i was still a member

138

that there are always opportunities to share the gospel with others with your neighbors

139

and stuff like that

140

and oh first of all it makes mormons feel very very

141

awkward about it at least that's how i felt um it's not natural to do

142

that people have to really push themselves to share the gospel

143

with your next door neighbor outside of like a church setting

144

or invite them like to church activities or to church

145

or things like that where you never would have invited them before

146

and some people are like no i'm happy to invite people i'm happy to share the gospel

147

but it's just it's not normal it's not natural and

148

if you you can feel it i feel a little bit

149

bad i think it makes people's relationships with others a little bit strange sometimes

150

when it could have just been chill

151

but anyway um we're gonna continue now you can call me

152

randy randy the last thing we want people to think we're

153

pushing our religion we know there are a lot of beliefs out there

154

and ours just works for us to each his own right yeah some mormons are like

155

that some of them are all about you know sharing the gospel with others

156

and then some of them are just like no i don't know

157

but you're supposed to share the gospel with others

158

so i don't know it's a tough thing some mormons are very very chill though it's hard to know

159

which ones are which it's hard to know

160

which mormons want to be your friend just

161

because they want to be your friend and

162

which mormons want to be your friend in hopes

163

that you will come back to church a little bit tricky

164

there i found them found what another new testament of jesus christ i do think

165

that they tried to keep it pretty secret i think

166

that he just shared it with people close to him

167

but then the word got out i don't think he like shouted in the streets i found gold plates

168

or whatever what ended up happening is

169

that like the whole town found out about it even though

170

nobody else ever saw them dum dum dum dum dum oh that's

171

so funny oh the song that's awesome it is interesting

172

because i was talking to a family member the other day like maybe a week ago actually

173

and they were saying that there are records

174

or whatever of joseph smith's wife emma the plates were always under a cloth

175

or something like that and she writes down that she felt them

176

and it felt like gold plates you know and so

177

that is one of the things that like strengthened their testimony

178

that the plates actually did exist and

179

that they were real along with like Emma saying oh Joseph

180

Smith wasn't smart enough to translate the plates he could barely read

181

which I'm just like who knows but it is interesting

182

that Mormons base their beliefs and their testimony on these kind of

183

records

184

and people just saying things it's very very common instead of

185

finding their own proof well i mean then there is oh gosh then there is like praying about it

186

and feeling it in your heart and that's supposed to be your proof

187

and your evidence i don't really buy into that anymore

188

because i feel like human beings can make themselves feel almost anything

189

if they try hard enough but very very very interesting to talk to them about

190

that he comes home with a That's funny.

191

I'm a lion.

192

I'm an alien.

193

Hey, just what the heck am I supposed to be?

194

My God.

195

You gonna come with us to the fire station, Stan?

196

Uh, no, I've got a lot to do.

197

Well, Gary, you wanna just hang out with your friend, Stan?

198

My God.

199

That got me, oh my gosh.

200

That is so funny.

201

I do think it's cool when family prioritizes each other, if that makes sense.

202

I think that's really, really neat.

203

Sometimes it can be a lot.

204

I just had to breathe for a second.

205

My god, that was so good.

206

The timing on that.

207

Anyway, okay.

208

And then he translated what was written on the plates into the Book of Mormon.

209

Yeah, but how?

210

I wonder if they're going to have the hat.

211

I'm just curious.

212

Also, I noticed, I just noticed that...

213

What's the Mormon kid's name?

214

Sam?

215

Oh, god.

216

sorry he's blonde there is definitely a big thing about like mormons from utah being blonde

217

and it's funny because

218

so i uh lived the first nine years of my life right in california

219

and then my family moved to utah

220

and it was crazy seeing how many people were blonde and

221

if people were not blonde they had blonde highlights

222

or they dyed their hair blonde it was so different from where we came from It was like a culture shock.

223

So I just think that's funny though, like clean cut blonde people coming from Utah is pretty accurate too.

224

In America, really?

225

That sounds kind of dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb.

226

It's true.

227

And I'm going to translate the plates and publish it into a book for the whole world to read.

228

Now, I know you have a lot of money, Sears, and I'm just gonna need a little bit to pay for the publishing costs.

229

I don't know...

230

How do you expect to translate it?

231

He did borrow a lot of money.

232

That's true. With... With... With...

233

Oh, I'm seeing the light!

234

Oh, okay, write this down.

235

and that's how the book of mormon was written dum dum dum dum dum dum dum dum dum dum dum dum

236

oh my god okay there was

237

so much to unpack there oh my god i love the

238

way they depicted him just looking into the hat it just looked

239

so ridiculous um it is interesting

240

because general teachings in the church don't talk about the hat at least they used to not i don't know

241

if it's mentioned more often now

242

but i actually didn't learn about the hat until i was in college i went to a mormon college

243

and so i was in some kind of class

244

and they were talking about it and i just i had no idea

245

because all of the pictures everything

246

that they talk about is just kind of them sitting across a table

247

and he's just reading them straight up um probably

248

because this would look a little bit dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb the way

249

that they're using the song with that is

250

so funny oh my gosh okay so

251

that wasn't the witness thing um i do believe

252

that there was some point

253

and maybe they'll talk about it where he had people actually look at the gold plates

254

and like write their signature saying that they have seen the gold plates um

255

so that was something else

256

but yes he would have somebody write down what he was reading

257

and that's how it was written down for for the book of mormon oh my gosh

258

that is so funny ah this is very interesting it's funny

259

but at the same time it's like a little bit triggering

260

it's like bringing back all these memories you know i think

261

that everybody who leaves the church uh deals with that something

262

that i was thinking about because i wonder

263

if i'll get any of those comments that say uh they leave the church but they can't leave the church alone.

264

That is a very, very common saying for members of the church to say about ex-Mormons who talk about their experience

265

and talk about the church and challenge the church, right?

266

And the way I see it is that we've been very affected by the church emotionally, like mentally, self-esteem wise.

267

It's taken a lot of our time.

268

And so it's, I think, fair to talk about it and especially

269

if we feel like somebody else might get hurt

270

or wronged i guess at least in our opinion it's worth it to talk about it makes sense

271

that people who are very invested in religion want to talk

272

about it they want to see it help other people same

273

with people who are outside of religion they want to talk about it in hopes

274

that it will help somebody i guess

275

but i just think it's kind of interesting i just like

276

sharing my story i'm not trying to attack the church or anything like that.

277

It's just interesting seeing, um, sorry, Hail Baby just sat up with a blanket over her head.

278

She's back down now.

279

What was I saying?

280

I'm not trying to attack the church.

281

I just like talking about my experience.

282

I think it's very interesting.

283

And so here we are.

284

Continuing.

285

They bring Jell-O.

286

They bring Jell-O.

287

It's so nice to meet you.

288

Sorry, I don't know what else she was holding, but jello is a very very mormon thing apparently i didn't know for a long time

289

but especially green jello and then you put things in the jello it depends on the family

290

but yeah that is that's so funny very at least utah mormon i don't know

291

if it's if it's outside of it but the little details

292

that they're putting in here is cracking me up how do you know he isn't just making stuff up

293

and pretending he's translating off golden plates

294

smart sports sports why would he make it up oh gosh and that's how it happened yeah right

295

sorry the whole family's like what

296

and then this guy yeah oh no oh my gosh

297

that is so funny okay

298

so the dumb dumb dumb versus smarts not smart thing it's actually reminding me of something

299

that another family member told me about i won't be specific

300

again this is a different family member by the way they said

301

that one of my aunts left the church at one point

302

this was probably before i was even born my family member was talking to a church leader

303

and the church leader said she's smart she'll she'll come back to the church that's really stuck with me because now

304

that i am no longer a member i think oh that's

305

what certain members of the church are saying about people who

306

have left the church i just feel like i would be infuriated if i heard that somebody was saying that about me.

307

Oh, you know, Heidi's smart.

308

She'll come back to the church.

309

So on one hand, I'm like, oh, this is really harsh.

310

Like, people in the church aren't dumb.

311

But at the same time, it's like, if they're going to be saying the same thing about other people, I don't know.

312

But yeah, I think about that pretty often now.

313

Strange, you know?

314

Yeah, it's great you have your own beliefs.

315

Yeah, right.

316

Oh, stop it.

317

That's another thing.

318

Why do you have to be so freaking nice all the time?

319

It isn't normal.

320

You just weasel people into your way of thinking by acting like the happiest family in the world

321

and being so nice to everyone

322

that you just blindside dumb people like my dad yeah yeah they don't mean to

323

but that that is very very interesting

324

that whole thing okay dumb people that's you know you could say

325

that i don't i don't know about that but one of the things

326

that the church and people in the church especially like missionaries

327

and things like that really target and i think

328

that i've talked about this in one of my other videos

329

but i'm not sure

330

which one are people who are grieving people who have had

331

a hard life people who are going through something really difficult

332

people who are depressed people who feel like they're missing something in their lives

333

and the church comes along and fills that hole or that gap with a lot of hope and a lot of,

334

oh, you'll be with your family forever and you can have peace through Christ and all of this stuff.

335

And so people who feel the community, who feel like somebody cares about them, whether it's God or the people in the church,

336

it can feel heaven sent.

337

And so that's how I've seen it.

338

People in the church who are so happy show people, oh, if you're in the church, you can be happy like me because you are feeling miserable.

339

You need this.

340

And I think that's very, very common.

341

I know that that was when I felt like my testimony grew

342

or I got closer to the church and my beliefs got stronger was

343

when I was feeling awful about myself as a teenager

344

or I was going through something hard with a friend or somebody like my grandpa died or something like that.

345

I would feel that the church would help me and it would make me feel like it was more and more true.

346

Very interesting.

347

And that is also one of the reasons why I would feel

348

so guilty when I wasn't feeling happy because I knew

349

that people wouldn't be drawn to me and to the church as much if I was sad or not, or I didn't have a smile on my face at all times.

350

That is one way that you're taught to help people convert to the church was your own example and your own happiness.

351

Instead of acknowledging if you are actually happy or not, you're told to be happy for others.

352

Okay, continuing.

353

I don't care if Joseph Smith made it all up.

354

Because what the church teaches now is loving your family, being nice and helping people.

355

All I ever did was try to be your friend, Stan.

356

But you're so high and mighty you couldn't look past my religion and just be my friend back.

357

You got a lot of growing up to do, buddy.

358

suck my balls damn that kid is oh yeah that's really funny

359

that was a funny ending i don't know i have mixed feelings about it

360

because i've heard people say oh i don't believe

361

that any mormons actually believe that joseph smith was a prophet

362

and that the church is actually real i think that they say

363

that they do or i'm trying to remember what they said but i remember being like, no, I definitely believed it.

364

I mean, I sacrificed a lot of my life for it.

365

And I was not friends with certain people because of it, which is ironic because at the end of this, it was like, oh, you couldn't even see past my religion.

366

And it is funny because in the, and I don't know if this has changed by now, but when I was a young woman, when I was a teenager,

367

there was this little pamphlet called for the strength of youth.

368

And it said something like only hang out with people of your same standards.

369

Hi everyone.

370

So I'm editing right now, but I decided to actually look it up

371

and it was about dating actually it wasn't about just friends in general it says

372

or it used to at least i don't think it does

373

anymore it used to say only date people of your same standards i'm not exactly sure where i got

374

that more broad interpretation as you'll see in just a minute

375

or so i did get maybe a tiny bit of

376

that from my mom but i might have just taken

377

that a little too far i'm not exactly sure but i don't want to spread misinformation thank you Let's continue.

378

And I should really look that up to see if it still says something like that, because I remember feeling weird and a little bit guilty or maybe not guilty,

379

but just nervous because I was worried that they would lead me astray, you know, and drag me away from the church or something.

380

My mom would actually teach us to, instead of you being the only one in a group of non-believers or bad influence kids,

381

I don't, I don't remember the wording that she would use, but she would say be in a group of people with your same standards

382

and bring one person in at a time without your standards

383

because you can influence them a lot easier than you trying

384

to influence an entire group like you're more likely the one to be influenced

385

and that stuck with me too i thought that was very interesting

386

and i mean in a way she's right like

387

if you're going to hang out with a bunch of criminals

388

or something like that then most likely you'll become a criminal I mean, I don't know.

389

I've never tried it.

390

And I do think that she was mostly worried about me getting into drugs or drinking or stuff like that.

391

It wasn't so much connected to, oh, are they Mormon or not?

392

So maybe a lot of parents teach their kids in a similar way.

393

But anyway, you're taught to be a good example, to be kind and nice and respectful to everybody.

394

But as far as being an actual friend to somebody, I think that there is a little more caution with that.

395

Rather than, oh, do you want to be friends with this person?

396

Do you think that they are a good influence?

397

The church, to me, it felt like the church was telling me who to be friends with, I guess.

398

I don't know.

399

That could have just been my experience.

400

If anybody has a similar story to mine, you know, let me know what your experience is.

401

I do think that family values and being kind

402

and serving others are some really valuable things that the church still teaches

403

but it also comes with a level of judgment

404

or feeling validated in judging others and feeling like you're the right one

405

and they're the wrong one or they don't know and you know

406

that is a little bit i still have a hard time with

407

that i like having the opinion

408

that i i don't really know um what's out there there might be a god there most likely isn't

409

but i'm not going to say oh of course there's not

410

one you're dumb for thinking there is i don't know i could be the wrong one

411

but i just have learned

412

that living my life like there is absolutely one is not worth it to me

413

because i i just don't know so i'm living my life the way

414

that i think is best not how someone else tells me to live

415

so anyway wow that was a good time

416

that was interesting it was funny

417

and also thought-provoking for me at least let me know what your guys's experience is especially

418

if you're also an ex-mormon or

419

if you are a mormon like i'd love to hear your thoughts too

420

Questo video è perfetto per lavorare sulla fluency e sulla capacità di seguire un dialogo spontaneo, con toni colloquiali e espressioni informali. Ideal per chi vuole migliorare la comprensione di conversazioni reali e imparare a rispondere in modo naturale, anche quando il tema è leggermente ironico o critico. Grazie alla narrazione di Heidi e ai frammenti dell'episodio, potrai esercitarti a shadoware (ripetere immediatamente dopo il parlante) e a rafforzare la tua pronuncia in contesti vivi.

Il video aiuta a lavorare sulla intonazione e sul ritmo delle frasi colloquiali. Molte espressioni come "Hey baby" o "Wild" hanno un tono informale e una pronuncia veloce, che è spesso difficile da imitare. Con l'esercizio di shadowing (usando un shadowing site o semplicemente ripetendo dopo il video), potrai migliorare la tua capacità di seguire il flusso del parlato e di pronunciare le parole con la giusta enfasi. Inoltre, le riflessioni di Heidi su emozioni e espressioni facciali (come "smiling all the while") ti insegnano a connettere il linguaggio verbale con il contesto non verbale, un aspetto chiave per la comunicazione efficace. Non sottovalutare l'importanza di questi dettagli: anche una piccola miglioria nel ritmo o nell'intonazione può fare la differenza nella tua fluency!

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.
