Shadowing Practice: WE ARE MOVING ! - Learn English Speaking with Video

um what the fuck is up youtube is that a good intro

um it was alright i did zoom in

while you were like kind of like air humping so it didn't really have the effect you might want

what the fuck is up youtube happy friday it's the stern yolo triplets here

and we are in the house that we once lived in and no longer do

it sounds like our voices are echoing and they are because there's no furniture around us It's all gone.

This house is all empty.

Boxed up and took away.

And thank God, Nick was ready to move.

Anyway, this video is, I guess it's a little trip down memory lane, which is the one that I take often, but I'm bringing you guys on it as well.

I guess we start this journey of memory lane just standing here in the stairs.

I don't like the stairs.

These are the stairs that led to Nick's room and the podcast room.

Let's go take a look.

This is where there was once a diner.

This was the Cut the Camera podcast.

This actually used to be a loft before it was a podcast studio,

and we filmed one of our first videos in LA Talking about moving here right there on the floor

We got the whole thingy, we got all the wires and whatnot.

Yup.

But like right now, this is just a little like area.

And where is this area?

This area is in our new place in Los Angeles, California.

Yeah.

YAY!

You can't forget when it leaked in here.

When it started dumping water.

When we converted it into the diner set, it exploded a water pipe.

And we had water damage and had to sleep in a hotel.

Which you guys remember what happened at the hotel, right?

You don't remember?

Was it me and you fighting?

Yeah, I hit you with a pillow and then you snatched my chain.

Oh my god, yes!

Yeah.

If you're wondering why you have a zillion fans in your house, fun story.

During construction this pipe here

It bursted And water went everywhere inside of our awesome home

So then our house started to fill up with water rapidly

At a very rapid pace

It's looking like a weather man So if you see the strip of water damage on the lights

Nick insert clip of water falling from the lights Okay y'all Tick-tock on the clock,

don't turn my speakers up, tonight on the fight till we see the sunlight.

That like slid away.

Oh my god, I'd kill him.

I would kill him.

One of my favorite podcast clips was me convincing Matt that a random leaf was poison ivy.

That has to be one of the best swans ever.

Would you be able to spot poisonous plants?

No. I wish I just talked about how much I wish I could I wish I could spot poison ivy.

I think I know what poison ivy looks like No, you don't.

I think I do.

I think it has that red tint to it It's like green but red on the edges if I'm not mistaken.

I remember- It's also crazy that there's poison ivy Yeah, that's just so insane.

Like that's a thing.

There should be poison ivy cream And like

if you think you're gonna go near poison ivy like if you're gonna hike you just rub up on that cream Okay, dude, I don't- and then you just walk freely and then you're like, oh, I got touched by a leaf If not worried if what it is though.

This is what poison ivy looks like.

Let me see.

I would have been able to tell you that.

That's a very interesting leaf.

I would have been able to tell you that.

If I saw it in real life, I 100% would have been able to say that's poison ivy.

Wait, I want to go find poison ivy.

Matt, I just googled leaves and showed you the first one that popped up.

Actually?

That is not poison ivy.

Get fucked.

I've seen.

Okay, then I've.

I know it has red on it.

I know it has red.

This is poison ivy.

No, I wouldn't have guessed that.

Let me see.

That podcast was like exhausting.

I really enjoyed having a podcast where you're just posting three times a week

and it was like genuinely like I was sitting down and I had nothing to share with the internet.

And I was like, how am I supposed to talk for an hour?

Yeah.

And you may be wondering at home, is Chris Sunburn or is it just 95 degrees in that house?

And both of those statements are actually accurate.

Now, this was my closet.

Oh, awkward.

There's a couple memories I have in here.

I remember sitting on the floor for some reason.

I bet you had a bunch of memories in your closet.

Oh my god.

Nothing beats when this guy always helps my ground, right?

I woke up the most positive I've ever felt in my life and then went to put a shirt on and...

My closet came off the wall i don't know what

i've done to deserve to be punished like this actual story

other trouble fun fact we filmed a wheel of doom video

and then we filmed a wheel of doom video part two

that never got aired or edited on our channel

and one of the punishments I landed on was spend an hour in your closet in solitary confinement.

So there's a video footage of me in night vision sitting

on the floor of my closet for over an hour that ended up serving no purpose.

You want to know what else?

100

I did do a hundred crossword puzzles for that and Chris got pied in the face like 16 times.

101

I don't know why we never posted that video.

102

I just, we never completed the punishments.

103

Yeah.

104

Then this is my room where I watched a bunch of TV.

105

Not much exciting things happen in Nick's room.

106

At least that I know about.

107

You are so strange.

108

Remember when you guys came up here and caught me with the bunny ears on my head?

109

Yeah, that was awesome.

110

Remember when they added 40 billion outlets to your wall for our podcast?

111

All of the power of LA.

112

I can't even like just to sleep this close to like a fucking control center.

113

I could have turned the city on with the right gear.

114

You know what I hate so much?

115

The color of this tile.

116

So I'm like, we'll be scared parts of this entire room.

117

Do you have any memories in this bathroom that we can share that are like PG-13?

118

Like brushing my teeth and shit.

119

I have to pretend that I'm a can of Pepsi.

120

I'm a big cooler.

121

Okay.

122

Um, just another quick little throwback to when we had

123

that podcast episode episode where I said

124

that my personal project would be out in eight months from then and now it's been about like two years

125

Hashtag coming soon.

126

Hashtag didn't forget.

127

There's a lot of good memories in this living room over our career We had surprising Nick with a farm.

128

We had surprising Nick with a mariachi band Ignore the thing blocking the door.

129

What the fuck is going on?

130

What the fuck is happening?

131

I'm never leaving the house again.

132

I'm never leaving the house again.

133

I'm seriously over it.

134

Hi, you're so pretty.

135

Nice to meet you. Of course.

136

Oh, that's a turtle.

137

We had the period simulator.

138

Amazing.

139

Christmas morning when Matt did Nick with the calendar.

140

Oh my god.

141

Me complaining about my bed frame. So good. In this shirt!

142

No. Yeah, it was, dude!

143

Oh my god.

144

If you're wondering why we haven't filmed in our living room in like months, it's because we got rid of our couch like six months ago.

145

Right?

146

Yeah.

147

And we were sitting on our janky tour set.

148

Yeah, we used our tour set as- Really, dude?

149

Frame the picture remember the moment.

150

I Mean this kitchen genuinely was probably the most clipped viewed Content created spot in our entire career.

151

I agree.

152

I've far.

153

I agree all the taste test challenges All the baking videos all of the Serrano triple chaos

154

Man so many genuinely like it actually like this area like this living room kitchen combo is the only thing

155

That I will probably be like damn like yeah, I'll miss this.

156

I'll feel it for sure

157

So many good videos in this kitchen and then

158

if you just turn the camera that way that was like the tick-tock zone Yeah, let's go to the tick-tock zone It was.

159

Classic TikTok zone.

160

Alright, who enjoyed this area the most?

161

Do you think this will hold me up?

162

Not even close, Nick.

163

Find out.

164

Find out. For sure.

165

Find out.

166

Nah, it's not kind of.

217

Reflex hallway?

218

I never called it that.

219

Yeah they did Nick.

220

I'm gonna shut the flex off.

221

Oh we honestly got one it's like you're really dark down there looks like you're in the back rooms

222

ah! wow man remember

223

when this room was filled with thousands of balloons? yeah we didn't really film in my room now

224

that i think about it no no no yeah we filled your couch a bunch yeah

225

also when i had my tv girlfriend in here for a little bit yeah that was awesome Matt come on yay

226

when we first moved to LA we were like in a really big rush to buy furniture

227

I ended up with like a little kid bed.

228

Like I don't know why I bought a bed with fucking shelves in it.

229

It was like the dumbest choice I ever made.

230

It's a good bed.

231

Yeah, but it was like the stupidest decision ever.

232

Oh.

233

You think it does?

234

Yeah.

235

Did you wash your hands?

236

No, you don't.

237

It's so pretty.

238

Alright guys, we're back again to discuss the drama.

239

Guys, there's this guy on TikTok.

240

He makes me really sad.

241

Why?

242

He's so strong.

243

It's like this stuttering coach guy, and he always posts ordering with confidence, and he, like, orders his food.

244

And it's, like, you'd think it's just, like, a normal guy ordering food.

245

But, like, little do people know, like, what he goes through just to order his meal.

246

And it really makes me upset.

247

But it's, like, it honestly shouldn't make me upset because he is persevering and doing exactly what he wants to do.

248

But it's just, like, ugh.

249

That's incredible, Chris.

250

I'm glad you think that way.

251

All right.

252

Well, we moved.

253

And, yes, we know there's going to be a lot of questions about it.

254

So we're here to answer them.

255

Right, Nick?

256

Okay, I was gonna say before we get in it, how do you want to express your emotions about our move, Chris?

257

Like what's the best way that you can express all of what you're feeling?

258

I wrote a poem about our move.

259

No, you didn't.

260

It goes a little something like this.

261

Oh god.

262

It's called Moving Day Masterpiece by Chris D'Ariel.

263

Oh wow.

264

Don't laugh, it's serious.

265

We said, let's move.

266

Like it's light and easy.

267

Next thing you know.

268

Oh wait, I messed up.

269

Oh no. Can I restart? Of course.

270

I will say, reading out loud and reading in your head is a completely different thing.

271

Can It gets easy and light That makes up the first thing Yeah, yeah, yeah Next thing you know,

272

it's a full-on flight We're not flying I know,

273

I know Boxes everywhere Tape on my hand Nobody knows what was actually planned Yes,

274

we do Matt packed snacks with a random fork Nick disappeared like I'm busy I work I'm lifting couches,

275

I'm breaking my back, and these two are over there arguing over who lost the snacks.

276

That's a really bad poem.

277

That's like one of the worst.

278

No, what?

279

Yeah, that was awful.

280

That's so terrible.

281

That was good.

282

And I was going to say, wow, Chris probably just had ChachiPT write that, but ChachiPT would write something better than that horrible poem.

283

I would never.

284

That's my poem, called Moving Day Masterpiece.

285

Thank you, Chris.

286

I think maybe the title can use some work.

287

You're in a good spot.

288

Thank you so much.

289

Moving Day Tragedy.

290

Guys, but in all seriousness, yes, we did just move.

291

We, me, Matt and Nick were like, you know what?

292

It's time to have a bigger house.

293

Yeah, we literally like moved into our other house, like fresh out of high school.

294

It was like technically like our college dorm, so to speak, if we were to go to school.

295

Like that was like the college years of our life.

296

Like it was like a lot of growing, a lot of like figuring out ourselves and like what we actually want from this life that we're going to lead.

297

And I think that we have now expanded to a new journey

298

that we need a new space that we can allow our creative minds to overflow

299

and flood and just push juices all over each other.

300

Exactly. So yeah.

301

So it's like we have like a bigger, better space.

302

What was your agreement there?

303

No, I completely agree with that.

304

Yeah.

305

But it's like we just needed a different space that's like better for our our mental health.

306

And I feel like you are going to see an upkick and like our vibe.

307

Like me, Matt and Chris are obviously like we first moved in together.

308

Me, Matt and Chris moved in together when we were fresh love.

309

Can't buy this at a stove.

310

No. No way!

311

When me, Matt, and Chris first moved into our last place, we were literally 17 years old.

312

And so to go, or no, we were 19.

313

That's like a full-blown life.

314

But we were 19, just like freshly 19.

315

Like our 19th birthday was like a month ago when we moved in.

316

And so we lived in that space for the past three years of our life.

317

And it's really, really, really crazy.

318

But I think that obviously me, Matt, and Chris were in a very different spot in our life three years ago, where we were literally together every single waking moment of every single day.

319

We made every single decision together.

320

We were just like nonstop up each other's butt.

321

And I think that we are growing as adults and we're super excited for what this next chapter brings.

322

We're still living together, which is still super, super exciting.

323

I get to like be roommates and coworkers and brothers with you guys for a lot longer, which is super exciting.

324

but I feel like we opened like the expansion pack of

325

independence amongst our expansion pack of independence just like essentially like

326

in music terms drop the deluxe like like dead ass we're super excited I think

327

that this is a really really good you I'm actually super

328

excited to show you guys my bathroom I'm gonna probably post a tick tock

329

or Instagram reel you guys are gonna lose your fucking marbles

330

oh yeah it's like it's not no it's not just the bathroom It's a mecca of bathrooms.

331

It's like if you're playing Candyland and you pull like the fucking Lollipop City and you're nine away from King Candy.

332

Yeah, no for real.

333

That's my bathroom.

334

Yep, you ate.

335

You wouldn't know because you're in Licorice Village and you're ho.

336

It's so messed up.

337

And you're all the way at the top because you ate all the candy to get there.

338

Oh my god.

339

Anyways, we will see you guys next Friday.

340

Thank you for joining us on this massive chapter of our life.

341

And thank you for being here for the past three years of our life where we lived in the house

342

343

346

347

I thought you were talking to me I know why wasn't Chris I've lived with you for 22 years man.

348

You're awesome, Matt Anyways, we'll see you guys next week Ah!

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.
