In this episode of The A to Z English Podcast, Xochitl and Jack take a random online quiz.Transcript:00:00:00JackYou're listening to the A-Z English podcast.00:00:12JackWelcome to the agency English podcast. My name is Jack, and today I'm with my co-host, social. And we are doing.00:00:20JackWe are taking a fun personality quiz and so social. I have several questions that we can go through, and then there's a menu of items that you can choose like there. There are answers you can choose. And I thought it'd be kind of funny or fun.00:00:40JackTo see what our answers are to these questions. So.00:00:44JackSo #1 is, if you had to live alone on a deserted island with only one item, what would it be your favorite novel?00:00:57JackA fishing pole.00:00:59JackA 50 LB. Bag of rice or a box of matches. Which of those?00:01:05JackFour, would you take?00:01:18XochitlI would take.00:01:22XochitlThe 50 LB. Bag of rice.00:01:26JackOK, OK.00:01:26XochitlBecause Bryce doesn't spoil quickly.00:01:30XochitlUM and.00:01:33XochitlI know I can build a fire like from scratch and.00:01:40XochitlI think I would eventually be able to make some kind of fishing rod to supplement the rice or something, or a net, you know, but I think that.00:01:52XochitlYou would need something to sustain yourself while you are.00:02:00XochitlGetting everything else in order and that 50 LB. Bag of rice can take you a long way.00:02:06JackHow how are you gonna boil that rice, though?00:02:08JackWithout a pot.00:02:10XochitlWell, you can make a makeshift pot way more easily than you can get anything else.00:02:16JackLike a coconut kind of coconut pot? Yeah.00:02:18XochitlYeah, I just put a coconut and.00:02:19XochitlFill it with the sea water.00:02:21XochitlAnd uh, boil that on the stove, you know? Well, on the on some sticks. Fire stick, you know.00:02:28JackDo you know how to make do you?00:02:28XochitlWhat I mean?00:02:29JackKnow how to make a fire without?00:02:32JackYou know, like, naturally, with without any.00:02:34XochitlYeah, there's a couple methods. I mean, I'm sure you know.00:02:36XochitlThe how to right?00:02:38JackI know that like stick one, but I'm afraid that I would never be able to do it, so I chose DA box of matches because I feel like.00:02:49JackAlthough if they get wet, they're useless. But if they're dry, I'm assuming they're dry matches. Then I can use those to build a fire and maybe make like a smoke screen. You know, smoke signal. So that like a ship will know that I'm stranded on.00:02:51XochitlYeah. Then yeah.00:03:09JackOn this island.00:03:10JackBut if I don't get rescued, I'm in big trouble unless I go catch some fish or some crab or something out there on the beach in the water.00:03:20XochitlRight. Yeah, I there's like those stone method and the stick method and I think I would eventually be able to recreate it.00:03:29JackOK.00:03:29XochitlAnd I have enough faith.00:03:30XochitlIn myself to uh for the 50 LB. Bag of rice.00:03:35JackRight. I mean that's that's a bold statement that because starting a fire, I don't know, it seems very difficult, but if you could get that fire.00:03:44JackGoing I'm sitting over there with my fire. Hungry. As you know, super hungry and you're, you know, got your fire and a 50 LB bag of rice so.00:03:55JackYou're in a better situation.00:03:56XochitlI mean, ideally if we if.00:03:58XochitlYou're here. You have to be alone. But if you're on the island together and you brought your matches and I brought my rice.00:04:03XochitlSo we'd be set pretty much so.00:04:05JackYeah, yeah, it will be all good. Yeah, we'll we'll be sick of eating rice, but it'll be OK.00:04:11XochitlYeah, well, it'll sustain.00:04:13XochitlUs long enough to catch some fish in the ocean or something, so yeah.00:04:16JackI mean, it's better better than reading war and peace for the 15th time or something like that, at least.00:04:21XochitlRight. And it's like, what are you?00:04:23XochitlEat the novel when?00:04:24XochitlYou're starving with.00:04:25JackRight. Yeah. Well, yeah, it's toilet paper that. That's what.00:04:31JackIt would be good.00:04:32JackFor yeah.00:04:32XochitlThat's true.00:04:36Jack#2. All right, our second one, we're only going to do five of these. So I think, yeah, we tried to do all 10 questions we may be here a long time. #2, which suit food sounds the most appealing to you.00:04:41XochitlOK.00:04:53JackA creme brulee B potato chips, C scrambled eggs or D broccoli casserole.00:05:06JackI'm going to be shocked if you say D.00:05:09XochitlEasy at broccoli casserole. Creme brulee, scrambled eggs, potato chips. And what was the other one? One.00:05:14JackThose words? That's the four. There's only four.00:05:17XochitlOh, there are only four, OK?00:05:18발표자Well, damn.00:05:22XochitlJust the.00:05:23XochitlMost appealing like what I'd like right now.00:05:27XochitlOK, then creme brulee, probably I could go for a nice dessert. I already had my dinner. So a nice crispy. I like the texture of crumbling because I like the creaminess and the crispy top for our listeners who don't know what creme brulee is, it's just like.00:05:42JackThat includes me. I don't know what creme.00:05:44XochitlBrulee is you don't know what Creme brulee is. It's a preemie like custard. Dessert and then it has like sugar on top and they slam bathe the sugar. So they use like a fire torch to burn the sugar on the top. And it makes a ********* surface. And then.00:06:00XochitlSo pack it with a spoon and.00:06:01XochitlAnd you get to.00:06:02XochitlEat like the.00:06:04XochitlKind of burnt burnt sugar with the custard inside. Yeah, it's really.00:06:04JackThe custardy inside.00:06:07JackOK, OK.00:06:10JackThat sound, I mean, that sounds wonderful.00:06:14JackI don't know. It's it's morning where I am right now. So for me, I'm really. I'm really eyeing those scrambled eggs. I'm thinking just some nice scrambled eggs, lots of protein, low carbohydrate, healthy, healthy food. But.00:06:33JackYou know, if I just eating dinner, then I probably would agree with you that the creme brulee sounds amazing. Like custard dessert.00:06:44JackCan't complain, yeah.00:06:47JackAll right, so #3.00:06:50JackWhat do you think would be the prettiest color combination? I know you like this one.00:06:58JackA green and yellow.00:07:00JackB. Pink and red.00:07:04JackSee green and white.00:07:06JackOr D blue and brown.00:07:13XochitlYou know, even though blue is my favorite color, I'm gonna go with green and white because green is my second favorite color. And I think you could do a lot with green and white because the green could be any tone and complement the white.00:07:29JackYeah, that's true. It could.00:07:30JackBe like a pine green or a a light green, yeah.00:07:32XochitlOr mint.00:07:35XochitlBut with the other colors.00:07:39XochitlIt's kind of hard to get them to complement each other. You'd have to think about the exact tones, like a lot more carefully. I mean, maybe the blue and brown, because brown is like a neutral tone, but I'm not a huge fan of Brown.00:07:52XochitlSo yeah, how about you, Jack?00:07:55JackYeah, I was. I I find it.00:07:57JackWeird when people say my favorite.00:07:58JackColor is brown. It's such a like.00:08:01JackLook, so I'm thinking green and white. Boston Celtics. I mean, the NBA team, Green and yellow, the, you know, the Green Bay Packers, the enemies of the Minnesota Vikings, NFL football team. So that's off the table.00:08:02XochitlI know, yeah.00:08:21JackThe Celtics are cool, green and white, pink and red. You know, that's that's kind of like would be my wife'll, you know, choice probably blue and brown. No, thank you. You know what I think a green and white flag shirt would look, really.00:08:40JackCool. So I'm gonna go. I'm gonna agree with you 100% and go see green and white.00:08:48XochitlBring mail.00:08:48JackAbsolutely. Of those choices, there are better color combinations. But of those choices.00:08:51XochitlYes, yeah. But they made it hard for us.00:08:54XochitlOn those choices.00:08:55JackYeah, yeah, they gave.00:08:56JackUs good. That's actually a really good question.00:08:59JackOK, #4.00:09:01JackWhat is the item of clothing that you have the most of? Scarves. Shoes.00:09:15XochitlStarted she just socks jackets. This is hard because I am a clothing collector. Basically, I have a lot of shoes and a lot of clothes.00:09:27JackAnd let's say.00:09:27XochitlThat's like.00:09:28JackPairs of socks, not just individual socks, because.00:09:31JackYeah, that would skew the survey. I think if we just count our socks.00:09:35XochitlRight.00:09:36XochitlRay, I I'm going to rule out socks because I lose them all the time. Also, my dog steals them and hordes hordes my socks. He doesn't chew them, he just steals them and keeps them in a little pile under his bed. I don't know why.00:09:49JackI just find that they disappear and I have no idea where they go and it it's it's me crazy because it's like.00:09:55XochitlMine also disappear, but my dog also hoards them, so I know in.00:09:59XochitlPart where they go anyway.00:10:02XochitlI've definitely outlined scarves because I'm not a big scarf. I'm not a big accessory person in general shoes and jackets, I'm going to say I probably have more shoes and jackets cause I have shoes.00:10:14XochitlDoes that still fit me? Going back from middle school because I kind of stopped growing.00:10:21XochitlNo, I still.00:10:21XochitlGrew but my feet didn't really grow.00:10:23XochitlAnymore after middle school.00:10:25JackOh, wow. So you have a.00:10:26JackLot of shoes then.00:10:27XochitlYeah, I have tons of shoes that like are still in good condition, like boots like high quality boots and stuff that I can still wear from that time. So I have tons of shoes. Yeah, that's what I have the.00:10:28발표자OK.00:10:38XochitlMost of how about you?00:10:38발표자OK.00:10:40JackYeah. So I have like a reasonable number of socks, you know, pairs of socks that are, it's not overwhelming. And I have, you know, 3-2 or three scarves that I wear. But I usually just wear my one red scarf that it's my favorite and.00:11:00JackShoes. I don't have a lot of shoes because I tend to just buy what I need, so I buy them, wear them out, and then buy another.00:11:08JackThere. So I'm not a big like, you know, sneaker guy with like 20-5 pairs of sneakers in my in the closet. So. But my one addiction is jackets. I'm. I'm a big jacket guy. I love fall jackets. So I have a a regular Jean jacket. I have a black Jean jacket.00:11:29JackI've got.00:11:33JackWhat's the other one? A bomber jacket. I've got kind of China cut jacket, which is.00:11:40JackThe has no collar.00:11:42JackAnd it's kind of a it's a faux leather, it's not a real leather jacket.00:11:47JackAnd and I've got.00:11:48JackLike maybe four or five other.00:11:50JackJackets on top of that.00:11:52JackSo I probably have like 10 different jackets.00:11:55JackAnd I would say that is my kind of addiction. And The funny thing is, in Korea never get to wear them because fall is like 10 minutes long. In Korea, it goes from like summer to winter in literally like a week. So and then in the spring, it just gets warm.00:12:15JackReally quickly. And so it's like there's no opportunity to wear these jackets that I love these fall jackets. So it's kind of ironic that I own so many and yet I don't wear them for years at a.00:12:31XochitlYeah, especially you're in Seoul, right? So.00:12:34JackI'm in Gyeonggi, the suburbs of Seoul.00:12:37XochitlYeah. So that's like much colder cause in loosen where I was like the winter is not that cold, it's kind of my there's no snow or.00:12:46XochitlAnything. So that's nice, but yeah, so.00:12:52JackYeah. Maybe you could maybe if I lived in the. Yeah. Southern part of Korea.00:12:57JackThen maybe I could just wear like, my my fall jackets all year round, like I wouldn't need a a parka. But it's been cold here, so I've been wearing a a big parka for the last few weeks.00:13:14JackOK. #5, last question.00:13:17JackAnd of course, we would love our listeners to play along and let us know what their answers are #5 which animal do you think is the cutest a pandas?00:13:30JackB koalas C dogs.00:13:34JackI know you're biased with that.00:13:35JackOne and D pigs.00:13:39XochitlWhat was the question, Jack? Sorry I missed it.00:13:41JackWhich animal do you think is the cutest?00:13:44XochitlOhh ah yeah, I'm gonna have to say dogs just because my dog is so cute. I mean, yeah, claws are cute. Pigs are cute, but my dog is the cutest animal to ever exist.00:13:58XochitlEveryone thinks that even people who already have dogs like, and I know some people.00:14:00JackNo, I have.00:14:01JackA dog and.00:14:02JackDuende is is is one of the cutest dogs.00:14:06JackI've ever seen.00:14:07XochitlNo, he legit is just perfect. So and he just has such a great winning personality as well. So you know, yeah.00:14:09발표자Yeah, yeah.00:14:14JackHe's got like big, big dog vibes and a little dog body.00:14:18XochitlYes. And he's very affectionate as well, so that's yeah.00:14:23XochitlHow about you, Jack? Which?00:14:25JackYou know, I love like I love pandas.00:14:25XochitlIs your favorite.00:14:28JackLike I think they're I.00:14:29JackThink they're cute from afar, but you know when you get closer to.00:14:33JackThem they're they're probably.00:14:34JackLike intimidating because there's still like, yeah, but when you just see them kind of rolling in, like like, like rolling into a ball and chewing on some bamboo while, like rolling down a hill, it's like the cutest thing ever. They especially little baby pandas, are very cute. Koalas are like monsters.00:14:36XochitlThey're really kind of scary.00:14:55JackI mean I they they are not cute at all. They have like claws. They you know what I mean? Like they're they're when they're in stuffed animals they're cute. But in real life they're.00:15:07JackThey're quite terrifying, actually.00:15:10JackDogs are cute pigs, you know, like the the little pet pigs that people have. Those are kind of cute, but at the end of the day, it's still a.00:15:20JackPig, you know, it's not really.00:15:22XochitlThey grow up to be big too, like there's no such thing as a teacup pig. Like, if that little pet pig someone has is gonna grow up to be like a 200 LB hog at the end of the day. So it's like.00:15:32JackRight, right. And that.00:15:35JackThere's nothing cute about a.00:15:36Jack200 LB. Hog.00:15:39XochitlThey are incredibly smart, but I don't.00:15:41XochitlKnow I'm the cuteness factor. I'm going to have to rate.00:15:43XochitlThem low, unfortunately.00:15:46JackSo I'm going to go, I'm going to just go pandas. I think pandas are super cute, especially like baby pandas, you know, younger ones.00:15:58JackBut you know, dogs are a very, very close second. We I have a dog. Lily. Lily is just like your dog. She's got a kind of big dog personality in, like, a little dog's body, which is what you want, you know, kind of mellow, relaxed.00:16:17JackNot not too, you know. Excited. Yeah, exactly, exactly.00:16:23JackAll right. Well, there we go.
