Welcome to the Listening Time Podcast.
2
Hey everybody, this is Connor and you're listening to episode 184 of the Listening Time Podcast.
3
I hope you're doing great today.
4
I hope that you're ready to practice your English with another episode and remember that you have the transcript
5
for all of these episodes for free.
6
Each transcript is in the description below each episode.
7
I'm mentioning that because many people still ask me where the transcripts are.
8
So the transcript is down below.
9
It's for free.
10
So in today's episode, we're going to talk about reality TV.
11
Okay, so reality TV refers to television programs that aren't scripted.
12
It's not like it's a show with actors and they're saying their lines.
13
No, it's just real people,
14
but there are cameras recording and these aren't actors, right?
15
This is reality TV.
16
So I think that most reality TV today is probably not very good.
17
Some people would even say that it's trash.
18
When you say that something is trash, you're saying that it's horrible.
19
Okay.
20
So I know there's a lot of reality TV today that is trash that isn't good.
21
But when I was growing up, when I was a kid, there were some reality TV shows that I really enjoyed.
22
And so I thought it would be fun to talk about those shows in today's episode.
23
I'll try to explain how these shows worked and I'll talk about why I liked them.
24
I don't watch any of these shows nowadays, and I don't watch reality TV nowadays,
25
but I used to really like these shows in the past, so I'm gonna have fun talking about these different shows,
26
and I hope that you find this episode interesting as well.
27
And I want to encourage you to use my advanced episodes
28
if you haven't done so already so that you can practice listening to real English spoken fast.
29
So the link to sign up is down below and the link to my U.S.
30
Conversations podcast is also down below.
31
In that podcast, I talk to native speakers from around the country about all kinds of different topics.
32
It's a lot of fun.
33
You learn a lot about the U.S and the different states and cities,
34
and it's great practice for your listening because it gives you the opportunity to listen to two people talking at normal speed.
35
That's a skill that you'll need to develop at some point So why not use my U.S.
36
Conversations podcast to start practicing with that?
37
The link is down below, like I mentioned Alright, let's get started Are your ears ready?
38
You know what time it is It's listening time Okay,
39
let me talk about some different reality TV shows that I used to really like.
40
So first, I want to talk about Survivor.
41
For me, Survivor is the greatest reality TV show of all time.
42
Some people might disagree with me about that.
43
I'm sure many people would, but I think a lot of people would also agree with me about this.
44
And I think Survivor has really influenced other reality TV shows,
45
and it has inspired other types of reality TV shows.
46
And I think that it's still going on now.
47
It's been going on for many years and this was my favorite reality TV show.
48
I'll talk a little bit about it.
49
Let me try to explain how it works.
50
This will be good practice for your listening because I'm going to be describing something in detail here.
51
So in the show Survivor,
52
people are taken to an island or to some faraway country,
53
and they have to survive on this island.
54
But it's not a game about surviving, really.
55
That's part of the game.
56
But really, it's a competition.
57
So these people are divided into different tribes at first,
58
and they have to work together with their tribe to build a shelter.
59
A shelter refers to some place where you can go inside
60
and sleep and be safe from the rain and all of that, right?
61
That's shelter.
62
So they have to work together to build a shelter,
63
to make a fire, to find food, all of that stuff.
64
But they also have to compete against the other tribe or the other tribes,
65
depending on how many tribes there are.
66
They have to compete with them in these physical competitions.
67
Sometimes they're also mental as well, not just physical.
68
And when they win, they get different rewards or they get immunity.
69
So immunity refers to the fact that if that tribe wins the challenge,
70
then they don't have to go to what is called tribal council.
71
At tribal council, the losing tribe has to vote out one of the people.
72
They have to kick them off the island, basically, and that person goes home.
73
So if one tribe loses, then they have to vote out one of the people in their tribe.
74
And this is where it gets really interesting.
75
the social and strategic aspect of the game.
76
So people have to vote out one of their tribe members
77
and so they have to strategize and talk to other people and decide who is the best person to vote out.
78
They might vote someone out because they're not very strong in the different challenges,
79
so they don't want them on the tribe anymore.
80
Or they might vote someone out because they don't like them, they don't like their personality.
81
Or they might also vote someone out for strategic reasons.
82
They think that the other person is a good strategic player,
83
and so they want them gone because that other person is a threat to them.
84
So there are different reasons why people might vote someone out.
85
And then eventually the different tribes, they merge, meaning they combine together.
86
They merge into just one tribe and then all of the challenges become individual or most of the challenges become individual.
87
So it's like there's only one winner,
88
one single person who wins immunity and then everyone goes to tribal council and they have to vote someone out.
89
So this continues until the end of the game when there are just two or three people left.
90
And then what happens is there are certain people on the jury.
91
The jury in Survivor is comprised of maybe the last nine
92
or ten or however many people who were voted out of the game.
93
and that jury gets to vote on who they want to win the game.
94
And this is really interesting because maybe someone was really good in the competitions and was really strategic in the game,
95
but the jury just doesn't like them.
96
So they don't vote for that person.
97
So it's pretty interesting because these people that are still in the game and trying to win,
98
they have to convince the jury to vote for them.
99
It's like when you go to court and you try to convince people
100
that you're innocent or the other person is guilty or whatever.
101
It's kind of like that.
102
So in the end, the jury votes on a winner, and of course the person with the most votes wins.
103
So hopefully you were able to follow that.
104
Like I said, that was good practice for your listening.
105
I won't go into that much detail with these other shows,
106
but I wanted to talk about Survivor in detail because it was my favorite show,
107
and I thought I would give you a little bit of complicated listening practice with that one.
108
But yeah, that is Survivor.
109
Now let me talk about American Idol.
110
Some of you might be familiar with this show.
111
I watched this show with my family when I was a kid, and I really liked it.
112
There were some parts that weren't as interesting for me, but there was one aspect,
113
one part of this show in particular that I loved,
114
and that was like the auditions at the very beginning of the show.
115
So basically at these auditions, people would go to sing
116
in front of three judges and they tried to do their best
117
and then hopefully the judges would tell them that they were accepted into the competition.
118
So these auditions were super entertaining because they didn't only include the good auditions in this show.
119
They also included the really bad ones,
120
and it was always hilarious to watch these really bad singers try to impress the judges with their horrible singing.
121
This was always really funny.
122
Sometimes it was like too embarrassing to even watch, but overall I loved that part of the show.
123
I loved to see these different auditions.
124
I liked watching the good people as well, but I really liked watching the bad singers.
125
It was always really entertaining.
126
So I liked that part of the show.
127
I also watched the competition afterwards where they would sing and people would be eliminated.
128
And I liked that too.
129
But really, after the audition part of the show, I would sometimes lose a little bit of interest.
130
but American Idol was a phenomenon in the U.S in the past.
131
A lot of people watched this show.
132
I think Survivor and American Idol were two of the most popular reality shows ever in the U.S.
133
Many people watched these shows.
134
And some of the winners of American Idol actually became well-known artists afterwards, right?
135
So some people that won this competition went on to have a great career as a famous singer or whatever.
136
So American Idol helped propel some people into great careers afterwards.
137
When someone is propelled, it means that they're pushed,
138
they're given this momentum or push somewhere.
139
So American Idol was a huge show in the past, and I watched it as a kid.
140
Another reality TV show that I watched was Fear Factor.
141
So Fear Factor was a show where people would compete doing things that were really scary,
142
things that a normal person would never want to do or would be really scared to do.
143
So they had to do these different stunts.
144
Stunts are like these different activities or movements that you do that are dangerous or scary.
145
So they had to do these different stunts.
146
They had to do things that were really intimidating, scary.
147
But really, the best part of this show, I think almost everyone would agree.
148
The best part of this show was that one of the competitions would usually involve something really disgusting,
149
like eating certain disgusting things, like cockroaches and things like that.
150
And of course, this is awful.
151
It's disgusting.
152
I don't know why this is so entertaining.
153
Just talking about it makes me feel a little embarrassed that I thought this was so fun to watch as a kid.
154
But when I was a kid, I loved watching them do these horrible,
155
disgusting things like eating cockroaches or they would lie down in some
156
container and then someone would pour spiders all over them or something.
157
Things like that.
158
Whenever it involved insects and spiders and animals and things like that,
159
that was always the funnest part of this show.
160
For me, that would be the worst part about competing on this show.
161
none of the other stuff is
162
that horrible for me personally like I don't have an issue with heights
163
so if I had to go up to some very high place
164
and jump to another place that's very high
165
that wouldn't be as bad for me as these horrible gross challenges with these different bugs and things like that,
166
snakes and all of that kind of stuff.
167
That would be the worst part for me if I had to compete in this challenge.
168
But yeah, Fear Factor was a pretty big show when I was growing up.
169
And the host of Fear Factor was Joe Rogan.
170
Some of you might be familiar with Joe Rogan.
171
He has one of the biggest podcasts in the world.
172
It's probably the biggest one that's not put out by some big company or whatever,
173
but he has a huge podcast, so many people know who he is because of his podcast,
174
but I first learned about Joe Rogan from Fear Factor.
175
He was the host of that show.
176
So that's another one that I used to watch.
177
And another show that was really big when I was a kid,
178
again, this is up there with Survivor and American Idol in terms of like the most famous,
179
the most watched reality TV shows of all time probably.
180
And that is Who Wants to Be a millionaire.
181
So this was a show that involved answering different questions.
182
You would start with the easier questions,
183
and then the questions would get harder and harder as the game went on.
184
and if you were able to survive all the way to the last question and answer it correctly,
185
you would win a million dollars.
186
So this show was really about your knowledge.
187
So if you were able to compete on this show, you had to use your brains,
188
your knowledge to answer these questions.
189
So the questions would always be multiple choice.
190
There would be four options that you could choose from.
191
And everyone that competed on the show would always get three lifelines, as they were called.
192
These lifelines were like some type of help that would help them if they didn't know the answer to a question.
193
So they had these different lifelines that would help them,
194
but once they used all of those three lifelines, then they didn't have any more help,
195
and they just had to try to answer the question.
196
And one interesting part of this show was that each question was worth a certain amount of money.
197
I don't remember the amounts, but for example, it might be that the first question was worth $10.
198
If you answer that right, then you have $10.
199
And then the next question was worth $50.
200
If you answer that right, then now you have $50.
201
It was like that.
202
So at any point in this show, in this game, so to say,
203
the person could say, you know what?
204
I don't know the answer to this question.
205
And so I want to stop right here and just take the money
206
that I've already earned because maybe they've already earned $10,000 from their questions so far.
207
And so they can quit right there and then take that $10,000 and leave.
208
And they would do this sometimes because if you get the question wrong,
209
then you lose a bunch of your money.
210
So there were certain thresholds that once you passed them,
211
like maybe the $500 question, then even if you get one of the answers wrong,
212
you're still going to leave with $500.
213
So there were, I forget how many,
214
there were a couple, maybe two or three of these different thresholds that once you get there,
215
then maybe you feel like you can just try to guess even
216
if you don't know a certain question because you know that you'll still win $500 or $10,000 or whatever.
217
But the higher you get, the more money is on the line.
218
When something is on the line, this means that it's at risk, right?
219
You can win it or you can lose it, right?
220
So once you reached a higher level, maybe you didn't want to take the risk of losing half the money
221
that you already have because it's tens of thousands of dollars, right?
222
So some people would just quit so that they didn't lose a bunch of the money they had already earned.
223
But some people went in with the goal of becoming a millionaire and they wanted to make it to the end.
224
And I remember watching one person win the million dollars.
225
I think it was the only time I saw that live and it was super exciting.
226
It was really fun to watch that.
227
But the vast majority of people on that show don't make it to the million dollar question.
228
But that show was really fun to watch.
229
I really liked it when I was growing up.
230
And I think that, like I said, it was one of the most popular shows, one of the most popular reality TV shows.
231
And lastly, I just wanted to mention all of those cooking shows,
232
those reality cooking shows, because nowadays those are some of the most popular reality TV programs,
233
MasterChef and all of those types of shows.
234
I was never a huge fan of those shows.
235
However, I used to really like watching those shows while I was eating.
236
I don't know if you have done the same.
237
I used to turn on those shows when I was eating breakfast
238
because it was so satisfying to eat food when I was watching this show where they would prepare delicious food or whatever.
239
For some reason, it made my breakfast taste better.
240
So even though those weren't my favorite shows growing up,
241
I did like to watch them while I was eating.
242
I like to do that at the same time when I was eating breakfast, for example.
243
So I wanted to include that here.
244
But really, those other four shows were four of my favorite reality TV shows when I was growing up.
245
All right, I hope this episode was interesting for you.
246
It might have been a little harder than my other episodes because I was describing shows in detail,
247
but I would encourage you to re-listen to this episode,
248
repeat it again, use the transcript if you need it, and try to understand everything, okay?
249
And remember that you can start using my advanced podcast episodes to practice with real English spoken fast.

And you can use my U.S.
252
Conversations podcast to practice listening to conversations that two native speakers have at normal speed.

255

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
