Every 60 Seconds!

from Unexpected English! · host Louis

(Ep 42) Another interview episode with a transcription to help you. I spoke too fast in this episode, I know, because I got agitated! That’s because "you know who" is still in the White House, and I'm sick of it! 🤮Please support the podcast by telling your friends and sharing this link --> https://linktr.ee/unexpectedenglish [INTRO] All right, so I was sitting at home and somebody rang my front doorbell, two young people. Can I say young people? Yes. OK, two young people. So tell me, young people, what is it that you're doing? We are protecting our oceans with Greenpeace. You're... wait a minute.. you're knocking on my door, I'm 7 miles from the ocean. I'm confused. Yeah, totally, so right now we're in the middle.... Yeah she's right, I'm totally confused! Yes you are! She got me! I’m totally confused No, no, c'mon, now seriously, you are representing... Yeah, Greenpeace. So a lot of people in the neighborhood support Greenpeace in our awesome campaigns. Today we're working on plastic pollution in the ocean. It's become a huge epidemic, I'm sure it's been on your radar lately. On my radar? On my radar? I mean, the oceans, at this point... What? What’s the problem with the ocean to this point? You don’t know? I do know! Oh, OK. That’s why we’re here. I was asking you! Oh, you don’t have to ask me, you don’t have to ask anybody, we all know. OK, good! We know. Yeah we definitely know. We all should be aware about the issues in the ocean. 🌊 So right now, every 60 seconds we’re seeing the equivalent of a garbage truck load of plastic enter our oceans. (music) Hear that again people? Every... could you said again slowly? Every 60 seconds we're seeing the equivalent of a dump truck load of plastic enter our oceans. A dump truck load of plastic into our oceans every 60 seconds. (music) Yep, it's horrible because then the whales eat it 🐳 and the turtles eat it and then they're not having a good time. It’s messed up! It's really messed up! But no need to fear, you know, Greenpeace is here! (laughter) All right, so what is... what is what is Greenpeace doing.... So we need to make Greenpeace a priority and the environment a priority. So how are we going to get that assh*le out of the White House? (YEAH, he's garbage!) That's our number one issue, isn’t it? Uh, so Greenpeace is non-partisan, we don't... Well, I’m partisan! I'm partisan! Aren’t you partisan? I’mm... working for Greenpeace Oh, he’s working for Greenpeace, so he can not say. Well there you go. I guess, uhh, that being the case, we can't uhhh get too political even though... well, no! Saving the planet, is that political?? No! I would say everybody should want to save the planet, everybody has a live on the planet.🌍 So what is wrong with the damn Republicans that they don't wanna save the planet? They just wanna keep on pollutin’ and pollutin’!!! 💀 Umm... "I can't say I’m working for Greenpeace." OK thanks we’ll cut it right there. Thanks everybody for listening, ciao ciao!
