Welcome to English as a Second Language
Podcast's Fifth Anniversary Video.
You
know, a lot of people
ask me what I do for a living, and I tell them
I'm a podcaster. And they say,
"But, Jeff,
what do you actually
do all day?" This video will answer
that question.
I'm up! I'm up! Time to work!
Well, I start my morning with my favorite
drink, a good, hot tea at my favorite
cafe,
Starbucks. Here we
go!
Oh, hi! I'm starting my day answering e-mail.
Just let you finish this one e-
mail.
Dear
President Obama,
Thank you for your question.
If there is time I will explain the meaning of
Mickey Mouse ears on our next
English
Cafe." (He's
always writing me!) "P.S. Please don't
write so often. I have a podcast
to
run."
Well, that's enough work for this morning.
Let's go get some lunch!
Well it's lunchtime, and I'm hungry. You know,
I always eat a healthy meal,
nothing
but the most healthy
food for me. Here I go.
"Hello? Lucy! Oh, right...no, I'm working very
hard. I've almost finished that
podcast.
Oh, absolutely! Oh,
I'll have it to you first thing in the morning.
Okay, thanks for calling." I can
never get
any sleep in this job.
Well, I'm done working now, and when I'm
done working, I like to relax and
watch my
favorite baseball
team, the Los Angeles Dodgers. I have my Los
Angeles Dodgers cup, my hat,
and of
course my shirt.
Baseball, as you know, is one of the great
American sports, and I think,
uh...goooooooooool!
Well, it's evening time now and I try to relax a
little by reading a good book.
There are
lots of good books
out there. The one I'm reading is pretty
interesting. It's an excellent book and
the
author, I think, is, well,
pretty smart.
Well, it's time for bed, but before I go, I want
to thank all of you who listen to
ESL
Podcast. This is our fifth
anniversary. I want to thank you for listening
over the past year, and hope that
you
will continue listening
for many more years to come. I especially
want to thank our donors and our
ESL
Podcast Learning Guide
members. These are the people who help
make ESL podcast possible, so
thank you
especially to those of
you who are members or donors.
I
also want to thank Adriano,
Jessica,
Sue, Warren, and all the
rest of our ESL Podcast team. A special thanks
to our own Dr. Lucy Tse.
Well, it's time for bed.
We'll see you next year!
