1
Okay, folks, all finished?
2
How was everything?
3
Well, I hated it.
4
Oh, yeah, you barely even touched it.
5
I'm gonna go yell at that lousy chef.
6
I actually liked it.
7
I ate the whole thing.
8
It was just a joke.
9
I know.
10
I'll be right back.
11
Well, that was weird, huh, Tim?
12
Uh, hmm, what do you mean, Mr. Pearson?
13
Normally I say a little joke to the server and she'll just laugh and that's the end of it.
14
You were giving her dad jokes and she was giving them right back.
15
She's not my dad, so...
16
Honey, just relax.
17
Okay, so, any thoughts on dessert?
18
We have an amazing homemade coconut pudding.
19
Well, my wife says I can be a little off -pudding, especially when I'm tired.
20
Now, I've heard a lot of funny things in my day, but that one takes the cake.
21
Why'd you say that?
22
I'm just teasing you, Mr. Pudding.
23
We also have a tiramisu.
24
My name is Jonathan Charles Pearson III.
25
Thank you.
26
Honey, please have a seat.
27
We will have the tiramisu and just bring the check whenever.
28
Okay, so one tiramisu, four spoons?
29
Uh, no spoon for me.
30
Okay, so five spoons.
31
What are we gonna do with five spoons?
32
She's trying to have fun with you.
33
What's so funny about spoons?
34
Your generation ruined comedy.
35
There, I said it.
36
There you go.
37
Oh, check this out.
38
Oh, what'd I do to deserve this?
39
You know what you did.
40
I didn't do anything!
41
Honey, it's a lie.
42
It's a lie what she's saying right now, the thing.
43
It's a lie!
44
Dad, Dad, stop.
45
Hey, thanks for paying, sir. Of course.
46
I like you, Tim.
47
He gets it.
48
Next time it's just me and Tim.
49
Okay, uh, anything else I can get for you guys?
50
Oh, yeah, maybe some money to pay for this bill.
51
Well, if you don't have the money, we have plenty of dishes in the back you could wash.
52
I'm gonna pay!
53
I'm gonna pay!
54
I have the money!
55
I checked this morning, Tim!
56
Do you believe me?
57
Tim?
58
Dad, we've got to get you out of the house more.
59
I bought you all dinner, and this is the thanks that I get.
60
Well, I brought them dinner, and I got no thanks at all.
61
That's what that money's for!
62
Am I going crazy?
63
Honey, you're being ridiculous!
64
Okay, hey, I'm sorry.
65
I didn't mean to offend anyone.
66
I liked your jokes, and I thought I could be funny, too.
67
Oh.
68
Oh.
69
I get it.
70
You like my jokes, which makes sense.
71
Duh!
72
Um, do you want a box for that?
73
Yeah, I think I could take you.
74
Oh, I may not be able to go 12 rounds, but I've boxed up 12 courses before.
75
I'm going to talk to your manager.
76
If you want to see more where that came from, give this video a click.
77
And that's an order.
78
Yeah, click it or take it.
79
That's not funny.
80
That's not funny.

About This Lesson
You're practicing English with "Dad Can't "Yes, And..." - Studio C" using the Shadowing technique — a method originally developed for professional interpreter training.
Focus on sounding like the speaker — not just repeating words. With 15–30 minutes of daily practice, you'll build real-world speaking confidence.
What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
