1
This is my dog's penis.
2
And then I've also had his balls removed.
3
Aw, shame, shame.
4
Give me back my balls.
5
You can't have them.
6
I took them away.
7
But I have a full vagina.
8
Hello.
9
Today we're going to talk about the invention of Coca-Cola, America's favorite soft drink.
10
So like in the 1800s, John Pemberton was trying to make patent medicines.
11
Basically they were fake medicines and most of them were just like herbal who's he what's who even cares.
12
He was just trying to make anything that would sell.
13
He was like, I want to make a fake medicine that made women think that they'll never be nervous or have farts.
14
and make men think that they can be smarter.
15
So he decided to use a new ingredient, coca.
16
Coca is from a plant.
17
The South Americans would chew it and be like, we had so much energy and we weren't even hungry and we hiked the whole Andes.
18
But really, they were just on cocaine.
19
John Pemberton was like, oh, I should put this into my new potion that I'm making.
20
And basically, he copied someone else's recipe called like, Vin Mariani.
21
He was like, well, I have wine.
22
I put coca in there, a little of this cola in.
23
The cola nut released a little bit of caffeine.
24
And he basically was like, what I give you is a wine with cocaine.
25
Caffeine.
26
Then people in Atlanta were like, no, nobody can sell alcohol because of temperance.
27
He was like, okay, well fine, I'll just make a temperance beverage.
28
He went back into his laboratory, and he decided to just put the coca and the cola together,
29
but they were super bitter without the wine, so he added a ton of sugar, and then he made it into like a drink.
30
You know, he thought, oh, well, people will love this.
31
It wasn't like he was like, I made a soda, pfft, because nobody even had that yet.
32
He had a friend named Frank Robinson who was like,
33
OK, well, I'll help you to sell your medicine soda drink thingy.
34
First of all, you should change the K in the cola to a C and just call it what it is,
35
Coca-Cola, and the two Cs will look really nice next to each other.
36
And who wouldn't love that?
37
So they would just advertise Coca-Cola as a medicine for your brain.
38
They would say it's invigorating and stimulating and healthy for your nervous system
39
using the exotic extract of the Coca and Cola nut to make you super alive and ready to face your day.
40
The first year, he only sold 25 gallons.
41
25,000 or 25...
42
25 gallons in a year.
43
He gave it to pharmacies.
44
They had, like, soda fountains and fun things, and people did like it a lot.
45
Oh, this is a great drink.
46
They thought that it made them, like, invigorated and aware.
47
People are basically drinking little cocaine soda.
48
Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me.
49
I need more.
50
I wish I was alive then to drink the co-co-co-co-cola.
51
God, I miss so much from not being in the olden times.
52
The next year, she sold 200 gallons a month?
53
That's so much more!
54
Twelve months.
55
Reggie, stop it!
56
Twelve...
57
Reggie, goddammit!
58
Hold on.
59
Okay, I got it.
60
12 months out of the year.
61
We sold 2,000 gallons a month.
62
No, yes?
63
God damn it.
64
He's on his deathbed dying of stomach cancer.
65
And he's like, out of all of the patent medicines that I've tried to make, I've finally made a successful patent medicine.
66
But what he never knew was that he actually made the patent.
67
made the most successful drink that humans will ever drink, ever.
68
God, he was so successful and he doesn't know and he'll never know ever.
69
They still use coca leaves in modern-day Coca-Cola.
70
So do the math on that one.
71
Even if they don't have cocaine in them, they still use the leaves and they took the cocaine out, and putting it somewhere else.
72
So how would you describe a show?
73
I my pants in the rug section of Ikea.
74
So I had to like go through the other parts of Ikea with my pants, but I also was like concerned about buying things for my home, so I still did.
75
I went to the bathroom, total pro, like cleaned my butt.
76
But the second I got back in line with other people, I was like, I my pants!
77
I had the flu and I sneezed.
78
Show.
79
Hi.
80
Oh boy, I love to be happy.
81
Why else am I here?
82
I'm Jenny Slate and today we are going to talk about the Cherry Sisters.
83
The worst act on vaudeville ever.
84
Ever.
85
The very worst.
86
Our story begins in the 1890s.
87
The Cherry Sisters were living on a farm in Iowa that had been left to them.
88
Their names were Ella, Elizabeth, Effie, Addie, and Jesse.
89
They had a brother, Nathan, And he just peaced out.
90
He was like, uh, actually, definitely not.
91
I'm not, like, even doing this.
92
And all the sisters were like, Buh!
93
What the hell?
94
Or heck, actually.
95
Because they were very prim.
96
They were like, our farm's gonna fail.
97
We truly don't get how to do this, and we don't have enough money to operate the farm.
98
Let's just try to get money from that, buy for that.
99
Am I right?
100
And they were all like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
101
Right.
102
Let's put on a show.
103
So they like rented out a theater.
104
These sisters were just like, we're putting on a play.
105
Uh, the play is going to consist of a lot of segments that are boring, and also will make you feel nervous about what you're doing in your life.
106
So it would be like, there's a young lady just like free in the world.
107
How dangerous.
108
And then a Don Juan comes out and he's like, I want you for sex, you know?
109
And then a gypsy woman would come out and she'd be like, don't do it, don't, because he's going to take your morality.
110
And that was the whole thing.
111
And it was baffling to everyone.
112
They were like, I can't believe these ladies showed up and even are here and did this.
113
After they were done, they were so shocked because they were like, this is an assload of money.
114
They made $250.
115
So the Cherry Sisters, they were like, we should take this on the road even though it was really, really, really bad.
116
So they went on the road all across Iowa.
117
They did a show in Cedar Rapids.
118
One of their songs was called Corn Juice.
119
Corn juice!
120
Let me tell you about it.
121
It's just like, what are you talking about?
122
You definitely can't make juice out of corn.
123
I've had it.
124
There's no juice in there.
125
Five, six, seven, eight.
126
If you're lost in your corn, I will find juice.
127
Corn after juice.
128
Beautiful.
129
Everyone's like, you suck.
130
So the next day, the newspaper was like, this is a bad show.
131
These ladies truly don't know what's up.
132
You probably shouldn't see this show unless you want to see it, because it's so very bad that it's kind of confusing all of us."
133
And they marched right down to the Cedar Rapids Gazette, and they were like, How dare you say this?
134
And the Cedar Rapids Gazette was like, You're like incredulous.
135
You can't understand why we said this.
136
And they're like, You know what?
137
We're gonna sue you for libel.
138
And the newspaper was like, That's actually hilarious.
139
but if you want to sue us, you're gonna have to sue us during your show." And so they did.
140
They got a real judge to sit there, being like, ooh, like, order, order.
141
I'll be the judge of how bad they are, plus newspaper, you telling the truth.
142
And at the end, the editor of the newspaper was found guilty and sentenced to marry one of the five sisters.
143
F* off.
144
Yeah. So sad.
145
So after this, they toured all the time.
146
It was kind of the first, like, it's so bad, it's good situation.
147
Groups of people were like, the Cherry Sisters are coming to town.
148
Let's get together all the people that we know and like, buy a shitload of vegetables and find a lot of cans so that we can throw them at them.
149
And this was a sketch that they did.
150
They sat in a bathtub and they were like, Don't get horny.
151
Be careful, because this is like arms.
152
But you have to be careful, because if you show your forearm to someone, their penis could go inside of you.
153
And you die.
154
And then you'll die. Of being cool.
155
People would be like, you suck!
156
So after the sisters had really been on the scene for a while, just stinking it up consistently, this man named Oscar Hammerstein,
157
He had a theater and he was like, well, I've tried all the best there.
158
Maybe I'll try the worst.
159
So he got in touch with the Cherry Sisters, and he's like, listen, we'll bring you to New York.
160
You can do whatever you want.
161
We'll pay you $100 a week.
162
Four of them were like, yep, yep, okay, yes.
163
And then like the fifth one was like, no. She stayed there like whatever brushing the pigs or whatever you do on a farm.
164
And they went to New York and everyone was like, you're the worst.
165
You're horrible.
166
What a weird thing.
167
And they sold out.
168
Ten weeks, sold out show.
169
And they made a lot of money.
170
And then, you know, they went home and then they died in obscurity.
171
But that's what we think.
172
That's not what they thought.
173
And honestly, what they thought is kind of all that matters.
174
Don't you think?
175
Aw, that was nice.
176
Thanks, Derek.
177
That was really nice.
178
Well, I'm an American woman and I love corn juice.
179
Let's talk about outer space.
180
Hello, I'm Jenny Slate, and today we're going to talk about Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson and their beautiful cosmic discovery.
181
This is my dog's penis.
182
And then I've also had his balls removed.
183
Aw, shame, shame.
184
Give me back my balls.
185
You can't have them.
186
I took them away.
187
But I have a full vagina.
188
In 1960, Bell Labs made this, like, giant listening device for NASA.
189
But then by the time they were ready to use it, a better thing had been built.
190
So then it was just, like, by itself, all by itself in New Jersey in New Jersey, a lonely horn.
191
But two scientists, Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson, they were like, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on, hold on.
192
If no one's using that, could we use it?
193
They were like, come on down to the horn.
194
So they get to the horn, they're like, we are beautiful scientists with lovely minds, and we want to listen to the sounds between the stars.
195
Boink, they're like, let's go, babe, let's listen up.
196
Oh God, I love thinking of them calling each other babe.
197
So they listen and the sound is 100 times louder than any sound they expected to hear.
198
It's like .
199
The universe is like, find out about me.
200
So they're like, what is this darn sound?
201
It's coming from everywhere in the sky at once.
202
Everywhere, everywhere, everywhere.
203
And then they're like, no, there's no way a sound could come from everywhere at once.
204
So we have to eliminate all the other sounds that might be interfering.
205
So first they thought maybe...
206
Someone doesn't care about science.
207
They're like, it must be coming from, you know, New York.
208
Urban interference, you know.
209
New York is a city with buildings and lights and people and subway and blah blah blah.
210
So they're like, pointed there.
211
Pointed the horn at New York City.
212
No, that's not what we're hearing.
213
Forget about you, New York.
214
Maybe it's coming from a military base nearby.
215
And then they just pointed at the military bases, but they didn't hear that noise coming from there.
216
No, it isn't.
217
So then they're like, OK, next.
218
Maybe it's from the sun.
219
They pointed at the sun, and the sun was like, I'm just the sun.
220
I don't give a .
221
They're like, it's not the sun.
222
What the funk is this, man?
223
And then they're like, we should check our device.
224
What if there's something inside of this thing, like mold or a skeleton?
225
of a hobo that crawls in there to get sheltered. Or whatever.
226
They look inside the horn.
227
Guess what?
228
This thing is filled with pigeons.
229
Houston, we do have a problem, and it's pigeons.
230
Arno is like, you do it, Robert.
231
You killed him.
232
Robert's like, I don't want to do it.
233
You do it.
234
Guess what they did?
235
They shot them with a gun.
236
A shotgun.
237
Then they're like, well, that'll do it.
238
After they wipe the bird blood off of their hands.
239
They're both like, RIP these pigeons.
240
Let's do this.
241
Boink.
242
They start to listen.
243
They're like, oh .
244
They hear it again.
245
What the hunk is this right now?
246
They don't have the answer.
247
They don't know what to do.
248
They listen through the horn for years.
249
They're going through their papers, their papers, their papers.
250
Ugh, ugh, ugh, ugh, I can't get it.
251
Ugh, ugh, there's nothing here.
252
Ugh, this one's boring.
253
Ugh, this isn't another language.
254
Just being like, we're never gonna figure this out.
255
Finally, they find a study done by a scientist whose name is Dickie.
256
Hmm.
257
He had this crackpot theory that the universe, instead of being infinite, actually started at some point.
258
Dickie's like, 13.8 billion years ago, AKA old as .
259
Check your watch.
260
I think the universe started with like a crazy explosion, AKA the Big Bang, but they had no way to prove it.
261
Then these two guys from New Jersey, who've been listening to this pigeon horn, call him up, they're like, we hear this thing.
262
It's like, have you ever heard of that before?
263
He's like, oh my God, that's it.
264
This is what we've been studying.
265
Cosmic microwave.
266
What is that word?
267
What is the word?
268
We know it.
269
What is it?
270
Cosmic microwave background radiation.
271
Okay?
272
It's the sound of microwaves from the Big Bang.
273
And they're like, yeah, it's it, it's it, we got it, we got it.
274
This is basically the sound of the Big Bang.
275
They wanted to try to find anything, But what they found was the sound of everything.
276
Boing, boing, boing, boing, boing, boing, boing, boing.
277
I had to unfollow NASA on Instagram because it made me too crazy.
278
It would just be like, this is a picture of a black hole.
279
And I was like, ah.
280
OK, let me tell you this.
281
Penzias and Wilson get the Nobel Prize for physics.
282
Everyone flips out.
283
And they were like, yes, the Big Bang is real.
284
It happened.
285
It's real.
286
You guys did it, Penzias.
287
And, um, and, uh, oh, the other guy.
288
I just keep thinking of Winslow, but I know that that's from Family Matter.
289
Carl.
290
Carl Winslow discovered the Big Bang.
291
Derek, what this is right here, this is the sound of the echo of the universe being created being created...
292
Suck on that for a second.
293
See how you like it.
294
Just for a second.
295
The universe is like, just suck on it for a second.
296
And the universe, suck on it for a second.

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
