1
Alright, I like the sounds of that.
2
When Jenny and Derek told me this wedding was going to be intense, I had no idea what they meant.
3
But now I get it.
4
So, my name is Shannon.
5
It's a guy's name.
6
And I'll be your MC for this evening.
7
Most people prefer to just call me Shansom.
8
So, you see Shannon, you think handsome, just smash them together, chance them.
9
Make it easier for everybody.
10
I think we can all agree that you're all incredibly lucky to be here tonight to see me speak.
11
And I think there might have been a wedding earlier on tonight as well.
12
So, I'm a full -time model and a part -time dad.
13
That's not right.
14
I'm an aspiring model and a deadbeat dad, but we'll all get to know each other a little better as the night progresses.
15
Right now I'd like to go over a few things to make sure everyone has a safe and enjoyable evening.
16
I've got to put the beer down here.
17
Alright.
18
Firstly, to avoid accidents, the washrooms are located around the barn, to the right.
19
In the event of an emergency, or the event that I set the dance floor on fire, which This is going to happen a little early later tonight.
20
The emergency exits are located on the left and the right sides.
21
Exit in a timely manner and make sure I'm the first one to leave.
22
I'd also like to encourage responsible drinking tonight.
23
So let's not get carried away.
24
Two drinks at a time maximum.
25
When you carry three, chances are you're going to spill some.
26
So let's not waste that sweet, sweet nectar, okay?
27
And for all you hip kids out there with your educated
28
phones who think the whole world needs to see what you're eating for dinner tonight,
29
I request that you use the hashtag Casey in love when posting to your favorite social media podcast.
30
For those of you who can't seem to have fun without drinking,
31
be sure to take advantage of the shuttle buses that will be leaving at 11pm and 1pm.
32
Let's not take the drive everyone, stay safe.
33
So this looks like a fantastic crew we have here tonight.
34
I don't foresee any turbulence ahead, I think it will be smooth sailing, and we should arrive at our wasted destination in no time.
35
Now it's time to introduce a group of people who were all better at being friends with Derek
36
and Jenny than the rest of us,
37
although I see that most of Derek's wedding party are his brothers,
38
which doesn't say a whole lot about Derek's ability to make friends.
39
First up, I'd like to invite Devin and Lizzie.
40
Devin, the younger, stronger, better -looking nephew of Derek Casey.
41
He's joined today by a girl who I'm pretty sure has
42
had a crush on me ever since the first time she's
43
It's frequently caught me going through her clothing at a party at a university.
44
Lizzie Hickles and Devin Casey.
45
Next up, we have Monica Fritz and Donny Casey.
46
It's rumored that Monica Fritz developed her crush after seeing me streaked through a Canada Day Parade in downtown Ottawa years ago.
47
Donny Casey is the eldest of six Casey Brothers.
48
And according to parents Don and Joanne, the only son they actually like.
49
Monica and Donny.
50
And now Jason Casey and Mallory Ferguson.
51
According to a 2003 poll, Jason was voted the best looking and most athletic Kasey of all the Kasey brothers.
52
Apparently, Mallory believes she might have been born with a crush for me.
53
She recently wrote in her diary that...
54
And I quote, my crush on Chansom is so intense that I feel it in my bones.
55
Okay, okay.
56
James and Mallory, everyone.
57
Following behind them is Katie Dunn and Gregory Casey.
58
Five bucks.
59
Gregory was almost named Jamal when Joanne and Don realized that all their kids' names and it sounded way, way too white.
60
It was almost too easy for Katie to first develop her crush on me.
61
After all, who could resist a passed out shirtless man at a Lumineers concert at Bluesfest in Ottawa?
62
Katie and Jamal, everyone.
63
Ok, so there's still more I guess.
64
Is it too late to make cuts?
65
Like what have we got?
66
Could be that break coming through.
67
Alright, who do we have here?
68
Candace Harnan and Adam Casey.
69
Adam, known as the Tyrion Lannister of the Casey Brothers,
70
measuring me at a generous and the only Casey brother to get a many pay before the wedding today.
71
This can't be right, but apparently Janice has never had a crush on me.
72
I know, I know.
73
Uh, Regent Beeney?
74
She doesn't like colored guys.
75
Taylor Sinato, everyone.
76
Oh great, there's more.
77
Dave, Casey, and Ashley Hernan.
78
Ashley reportedly got a serious crush on me at one of
79
her big sister's parties as we paid our first round of inappropriate questions while Ashley was in high school.
80
And for all you singles boys out there, you might want to form a queue, but Ashley is the only single lady in the entire bar party.
81
When asked what they thought of their son Dave, Don and Joanne replied, We should have stopped at Greg.
82
That's right everybody.
83
Now just when you thought it should have been over three rounds ago, we have more.
84
But this round is special these two are apparently better than all the others our men of honor Megan Hamilton
85
and Gregor Gang
86
Megan has the biggest touch on me of the entire bridal party in an intercepted message from the confessional at church today,
87
Mayden said, and I quote, It's not just the chiseled abs,
88
beautiful blue eyes, or even that sweet, sweet booty.
89
It's that raw sexual magnetism that's got me head over heels for the shansom. And great.
90
Best man is typo.
91
Well, I guess that's what we got.
92
Okay, well, Brady is known for his ability to walk upright and efficiently convert oxygen into carbon dioxide.
93
Brady Mayne, everyone!
94
So, next up, we have arguably the most awkward crush of the evening,
95
a forbidden crush that spanned well over a decade at this point,
96
but apparently abruptly softed at around 3 p .m today.
97
Now there's still a heavy debate on what their power couple name should be.
98
There's one party that says they should be called D -Gen.
99
And there's another strong party that believes they should be called Gen -der.
100
Gen -der or de -gen. No matter what side you're on, I'm sure we all can agree that these two are a couple of beauties.
101
This is my absolute pleasure to introduce you to the first time in touch with your wife, James Larkin.
102
Thank you.
103
I'm going to shoot here quite a lot.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
