- 91 - 90. Why Are You So Quiet?
If you’re someone who’s comfortable being quiet in the presence of others, you might have noticed that your tendency to remain quiet drives some people crazy. You probably know how annoying it is to find out that someone doesn’t like you simply because you don’t speak as much as they would like you to.
Well in this episode, I’m gonna share a few ideas that might help you understand the mentality of the people who feel the need to ask, “Why are you so quiet?” And hopefully, help the people asking this question to understand the quite ones a bit more as well.

Have you ever wondered why communicating with certain people is so easy, while talking with others feels impossible? You might be surprised to know that it often boils down to a poor understanding of how communication works.

In this episode, we’re gonna talk about a simple way to quickly recognize what type of person you’re speaking with, and easily adapt to their way of communicating. — This episode will completely change your perspective on the art of communication.

And although you probably understood the point of that episode with no problems, I’d like to drive the point home by staying in the context of learning English as a foreign language and explain the reason that the practical approach to learning will always be the best approach.

Mon, 11 Dec 2023 - 12min - 66 - #66 - Why Are We Still Working?
The world we live in is very different from the world that Gen X-ers and Baby Boomers grew up in, and thus, the things we value and work for have changed substantially. In the past, people worked hard in the pursuit of owning their own homes, raising families, and retiring with enough money to enjoy their old age. But these days, the desire to own a home and raise children is lower than ever before. People don't want to dedicate 45 years of their life to a corporation, and they don't want to commit to 30-year mortgages or 18 years of childcare. So the question is... what exactly are we working for then?

Mon, 20 Nov 2023 - 52min - 63 - #63 - The Lost Art of Conversation
When was the last time you had a genuine conversation? Not a text chat or an email, but a real face-to-face, heart-to-heart conversation? It’s something that rarely happens these days, isn’t it?
People are busier, more immersed in the digital world, and more individualistic than ever before. Most of our interactions have been reduced to superficial, tweet-like sentences, emojis that display artificial emotions and reactions, and conversations that feel more like transactions than actual human connections.
In this episode, I’m going to explain how getting back to our roots and learning to communicate with others will make life better for all of us.

Mon, 13 Nov 2023 - 40min - 62 - #62 - "Gen Z is Lazy and Weak"
Gen Z are living through a major societal change, and it seems that most of them simply aren’t prepared for it. But who’s fault is that? Is this generation really just a bunch of lazy, weak, and entitled kids who think they deserve the world for free? Or is it possible that Millennials, Gen X-ers, and Baby Boomers have something to do with this?
In this episode, you’re going to hear Jonathan Haidt’s thoughts on how Gen Z came to be so relatively weak in comparison to their predecessors, as well as clip of a young lady who’s struggling to cope with the reality of being an adult nowadays.
This is such an important topic that’s relevant to all of us, and I hope this episode will spark interesting conversations about how we can support the future of our society.

Mon, 06 Nov 2023 - 1h 00min - 61 - #61 - The Internet Sucks Now... Here's Why
Have you ever wondered why so many people stopped using Facebook?
Have you ever wondered how exactly Amazon became the first website you think of when you want to buy something online?
Have you ever wondered why so many content creators who had built massive followings on YouTube and Instagram suddenly rushed to TikTok back in 2020?
Have you ever wondered why your experience on all of these platforms somehow gets worse and worse overtime?
You might say that too many old people started using Facebook so all of the young people left.
You might say that Amazon is just more convenient than any other online retailer.
You might say that TikTok’s algorithms are simply better and more effective than the ones on YouTube and Instagram.
And you might say that your online experience gets worse because there are too many ads and too many creators making the same trash content.
But is it really that simple? What if there was a predictable pattern that almost every online platform followed in the search for higher profits market control? What if you could take a look behind the curtain and see how these online platforms systematically kill competition and creativity… while forcing buyers and sellers, creators and consumers to participate in their little game of monopoly?
Well, in this episode, I’m going to read a brilliant article written by the author and journalist Cory Doctorow about the predictable ways that every online platform we know of eventually turns to shit.

The concept of the "looking glass self" is central to the field of sociology, particularly symbolic interactionism. Coined by Charles Horton Cooley in his work "Human Nature and the Social Order" (1902), the term captures the idea that our self-concept and self-worth are heavily influenced by how we perceive others to perceive us. If you enjoy episodes about psychology and culture then this one is definitely for you!

And although it’s easy (and justifiable) to criticize ourselves when we procrastinate and avoid our responsibilities, it’s also important that we consider the source of this behavior if we’ll have any hope of overcoming it.

Mon, 18 Sep 2023 - 1h 14min - 50 - #50 - The Harsh Reality of Making Life Decisions
I don’t know about you, but I’ve never taken a class on decision-making. My parents never sat me down and taught me how to think deeply about the consequences of my actions.
When it comes to making life choices, the only teacher I’ve ever had was life itself. I’ve made decisions, those decisions have had consequences, and then I’ve analyzed those consequences with the hopes that I’ll be able to make even better decisions in the future.
But I’m a human being… and naturally, I want to feel a sense of certainty that the decisions I make will lead to the outcomes I desire. — And I’m sure you’re no different.
How do I know if I’m making the right decision?How do I know if I should be persistent and keep moving toward my goal, or just quit and find something else to do?How do I know if I’m using my time in the best way possible?These are questions that all of us have asked or will ask ourselves at some point in life. And the harsh reality is that in most cases, the only person who can answer these question for us is the person we see in the mirror every morning.
But still, we continue to look to others for guidance, advice, and answers. — And in today’s episode, I’m gonna play a clip of a young lady looking for advice on how to know if she’s on the right path in life. — And the entrepreneur and content creator, Gary Vaynerchuk is going to share a perspective that I believe could help you to find some direction in your life as well.

Thu, 03 Aug 2023 - 35min - 43 - #43 - The Biggest Lie about Relationships
From a very young age we are told countless lies about the purpose of committed relationships, how those relationships are developed, and what it takes to maintain them overtime. It's only as we get older and start trying to develop our own relationships that we actually realize relationships are not what we read about in fairytales, or see in movies or on social media.
Unfortunately, many of us never had anyone to teach us about how committed relationships work and so we were forced to learn through sheer observation. However, many of us we never taught to observe properly so we end up misinterpreting many other things that we see and hear.
What's the biggest misconception about committed relationships today? What is it that so many of us get wrong when it comes to choosing a partner, developing a relationship, and setting expectations of that relationship?
In today's episode of real English radio, we’re gonna listen to a clip from a conversation between Brené Brown and Tim Ferris about what Brené believes to be the biggest lie we’re told about relationships and the change in thinking we all need to make if we want to sustain a healthy partnership with someone.

A lot of people have a hard time dealing with silence, especially in the presence of another person. In many cultures, silence is viewed as a problem, a breakdown in communication, or a void that must be filled with some kind of noise. If the person we’re speaking with is silent too often or for too long, we tend to associate negative feelings with them such as boredom, awkwardness, and rejection. This episode will give you a different way to think about silence and help you to understand quiet people just a little bit better.

Many of us have a really hard time talking to women (or people in general). And although all of us struggle at different times and for different reasons, I think there are two main things that keep us from improving this crucial skill.
- A self-defeating mindsetA level of pride that keeps us from exiting our comfort zone and experiencing failure
So with the help of Charlie Houpert from Charisma on Command and the late, great Kevin Samuels, I'm going to share some ideas with you that will help you to develop the right mindset for communicating more effectively and find the source of motivation you need to step out of your comfort zone and learn a new skill.

Sun, 09 Jul 2023 - 46min - 37 - #37 - The Benefit of the Doubt
From the day we are born to the day we die, we’re faced with countless ambiguous situations that require us to use our logic rather than our emotions to interpret things properly and avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and conflicts.
Unfortunately, most of us have little knowledge about human psychology and how our brains tend to function and or malfunction. This lack of understanding often leads us to misinterpret many situations and develop negative feelings or opinions about the various people we come into contact with on a daily basis.
So today, we're going to dive deeper into this topic and discuss the power that your perception has over the way you experience life. — If you are at all interested in psychology, communication, or interpersonal relationships, then this episode is definitely for you!

Wed, 03 May 2023 - 14min - 28 - #28 - Tips for Better Language Exchanges
When you can’t afford to pay for private English lessons, language exchanges are the next best way to learn a foreign language. Why? Because we learn a language to communicate with real people. So by practicing with real people every day, you’ll be learning both the language and the culture in one of the most authentic ways possible.
The problem is that finding (and keeping) a good language exchange partner online is one of the hardest things for an English learner to do. Now, I’m not an expert on the subject, but I do have some tips that will make the process a bit easier for you.

There are many different perspectives on the purpose and importance of having children. Personally, I feel conflicted by the idea of raising a family.

In this episode, you’re gonna listen to two different points of view on the idea of having children, and then you’ll be able to decide where you stand on the matter.

Being a great English speaker involves a lot more than memorizing nouns, verbs, and adjectives. You must learn to communicate.

Tue, 04 Apr 2023 - 23min - 17 - #17 - The US Government Wants to Ban TikTok (Part 1)
On March 23, 2023, the CEO of TikTok, Shou Zi Chew was asked to appear before the US congress and answer questions regarding TikTok’s invasive features, possible ties to the Chinese government, and extremely negative effects the app is having on people’s mental health.
According to the members of congress, this meeting would have been Mr. Chew’s opportunity to prove that TikTok can be trusted by the American people and that it shouldn’t be banned in the US. However, the congressional hearing ended up being a brutal 5 hours of what some people would call foolish questioning that left many of us thinking that TikTok will in fact be banned in the United States simply because the people who would enact this ban are afraid of something they clearly don’t understand.
So in this episode and the next one, we’re gonna be diving deeper into this situation and helping you learn much more about:

Wed, 29 Mar 2023 - 39min - 16 - #16 - Stoicism: How to Liberate Yourself from Fear
Many of us (especially in the West) have been conditioned to believe that the most important thing in life is happiness, but I completely disagree with this idea. Happiness is simply a by-product of living properly and spending time doing things that are truly meaningful.
Pursuing what’s truly meaningful often requires us to step out of our comfort zones and overcome our fear of the unknown. And with the help of Dr. Jordan B. Peterson and Dr. Michael Sugrue, I’ll explain how a stoic mindset enables you to stand strong in the face of uncertainty and grow into a fully-realized (and happy) individual.

With its shrinking young population and lack of skilled workers to occupy the job market, Germany plans on issuing the 'Chancenkarte' or 'Opportunity Card' to foreigners so they can enter the country and look for work more easily. This idea and its execution have been met with criticism, but it seems clear that some German officials believe that the English language and skilled workers from abroad are key to the country's economic growth.
