13
This is what happens when I self -isolate.
14
We're both looking dapper.
15
This is how I am 24 -7.
16
I admire the fact that you are dressing up like this every day.
17
They say that's one thing that you should do.
18
You should always, you know, in these days of isolation, we should be, you know,
19
showering and taking care of ourselves and exercising and we're wearing suits
20
and doing those i guarantee you
21
that the bottom half of what you have on does not match the top i am definitely wearing jams
22
if anybody remembers
23
oh my god um so steve this week marked a huge anniversary for you
24
and i um we were on a little show called the office
25
and it turned 15 years old this week i mean i was a waiter
26
when i got that job i was 23 years old i was a waiter
27
and after the pilot i went back to waiting tables
28
because i was sure nothing was going to happen with it
29
and uh and we all kind of came into it with
30
that vibe i remember none of us had done anything huge um
31
we were in this sort of it felt like we were
32
in a rep company like we were just doing theater every week with the same people different um shows
33
and i also remember the crew was unreal i am
34
so ridiculously spoiled in every job i've gone to since
35
because i i you know that's the only downside for me is
36
that i was shown how good
37
it really can be on the first go around in a good way it sets the bar really high totally
38
that we want it to be um at least in certain ways equal to
39
that i don't know if it ever will be but uh yeah
40
For me, it was my film school, theater school, everything all at once.
41
People ask me now, how the hell did you become a director?
42
Still don't know.
43
Still answering that question for myself.
44
But the office for me was film school, which I don't think a lot of people know,
45
is that door in the office that never opened in any of the episodes.
46
The reason why it never opened is because that was the writer's room.
47
And I'll never forget in those first episodes, whether it was Diversity Day or, you know, any of the first few of the pilot as well
48
but you'd have six to ten people burst out of
49
that door like a clown car after you did the take
50
and be like that was amazing keep
51
that line do this other thing now we'll reverse these now you say
52
that line and oh my god we're so lucky
53
and like go back into the room
54
and i remember just thinking is this what the creative process is all about yeah
55
it was everything it was everything and and just such a special moment i just love that people celebrating 15 years because,
56
for me, I will celebrate that forever.
57
I mean, people always ask this question, so I have to ask you, do you have, not one, obviously, but in your top memories,
58
what were some of your favorite memories?
59
All of our exchange around the micro -flat -screen TV.
60
I finally broke down and bought myself a plasma TV.
61
Check it out.
62
The episode, Dinner Party, where you said, and when people come over, you just, and it only moved that far?
63
I don't think I've ever done that far in my life.
64
The articulating screen.
65
Check this out.
66
Folds.
67
Oh, this is a wall!
68
Sorry.
69
Oh, my God.
70
I think most of the memories have to do with things that we shared as a cast.
71
You know, when we were doing
72
Fun Run, and it was about 105 degrees outside and everybody was just dying.
73
I mean, it was really, it was a hot, terrible day outside.
74
Fettuccine Alfredo.
75
Time to carbo -load.
76
I remember when you did the episode where you played
77
Santa and were very upset that Phyllis was already Santa.
78
And so you were asking people to come sit on your lap and Brian, thank God, was chosen to sit on your lap.
79
That's the other time in my life I don't think I've laughed harder when he sits down and you say, what would you like?
80
And your air goes out and you went, what would you like?
81
And I'll never forget you saying, just say toys.
82
Just say toys.
83
What would you like for Christmas, little boy?
84
I don't know.
85
I didn't know you were going to ask me that.
86
What did you think was going to happen?
87
I didn't know.
88
Nobody's ever let me sit on their lap before.
89
All right, just say some toys, please.
90
I was supposed to be the button of the scene where they cut to me and I did a gym face.
91
I was never there.
92
I was physically never there.
93
But because by the time they got to the swish pan to me, I was out.
94
I was either on the floor or I had left the room.
95
Part of what was so much fun about it is that everybody in the cast was rooting for everybody else.
96
People would step back when it was time for other people to shine and celebrate it.
97
Like, when you came in as Dwight that day,
98
it was like, it was crazy watching Jim do Dwight.
99
And you're a very good impressionist in general.
100
I don't think it's something people know.
101
Michael!
102
Oh, that's funny.
103
Michael!
104
And then also, at the same time, the most emotional I've ever been on a set, certainly.
105
I know we've talked about it, but I was sort of hoping that they wouldn't do your scene and my scene,
106
the episode where you leave, last.
107
I think you and I counted, I think it was either 17 or 19 takes where there wasn't an audible word that came out.
108
It was just, it was just action, and then you and I going, I think we should just say the goodbyes for tomorrow, at lunch.
109
Oh, okay.
110
And then tomorrow, I can tell you, What a great boss you turned out to be.
111
Best boss I ever had.
112
That was a hard one.
113
That was really, that was tough.
114
That was brutal, but it was, again, to everything you were saying, it was that idea of family.
115
You were literally, you were leaving summer camp, you were leaving home, you were leaving all these things all at the same time,
116
and those massive emotions
117
of knowing that this would be the end of something
118
that was uh you know uh sort of a monolith in
119
ways in your life some of my most fond memories uh personally
120
or professionally are entwined and connected with
121
that it wasn't even at the end i think we were like five
122
or six seasons in and i remember you saying to the cast you said
123
guys no matter what we go on to do we will always be known for this show whether even
124
if you win an Oscar or do something crazy like
125
that you'll always be remembered for this show and what an honor
126
that is people come up to me all the time
127
and say you know you'll always be Jim
128
and I went thank God for
129
that yeah yeah there's really no downside to it at all it's it's great I mean what
130
if if this is what we are all remembered for
131
which probably will be the case what a great thing to be remembered for it's pretty yeah
132

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.
