[Assistant] There may be treatment. There may be intense supervision. Uh, there may be any number of things that would serve not only the individual better and his or her family, but society much better as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hubby doesn't remember you. You're scared to death of losing Hubby. Hubby isn't shooting blanks, but Hubby doesn't know it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, have you currently or recently been pregnant?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm just flabbergasted at how remarkably uninformed folks are.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, they're breaking up. Storm is settling. We're in a hurry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thanks Trevor. Last week in Las Vegas was the annual Consumer Electronic Show, where tech companies give us a first look at all the junk we'll be throwing away in six months. And this year was the worst yet. They have a lot of technology and no good ways to use it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that wasn't even the most unnecessary thing at CES this year. Okay, look at what one company is offering for babies because they're hoping that new parents are too tired to notice how stupid it is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what else has a built-in notification? Human shit, alright? Trust me, it'll let you know when it's in the room.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Also, who wants to get notifications on their phone every time their baby takes a crap? Notifications are supposed to be for good things. I don't want to be like, oh, my phone's buzzing. I wonder if it's my food. That's, uh, here. Oh no, that's just my son's food coming out of its butt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What I like about CES is that it does give me a chance to see what I would be buying if I had unlimited money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Interesting. Uh, anyway, you have $30,000 to spend on a massage chair. You don't need a massage chair, okay? What could you possibly be stressed about? Is carrying all your money hurting your back?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the real stars of every CES are the robots. For one week a year, they get to be the creepiest things in Las Vegas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, next thing you know, your Roomba's gonna want a living wage and benefits.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that robot didn't want to be touched, but some of these other ones are getting downright needy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yo tech nerds, you don't have to try so hard to make machines likeable, okay? We already love them. You see this little guy right here? Yo, this, this thing is like my best friend, alright? I would die for it. One time I left it in a cab, and I turned to Liam Neeson and take it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because I have a particular set of skills and a particular set of nudes on that phone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not just dangerous because we have blood on the sidewalks. It's also dangerous because it goes to the roots of the democratic system.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We of course try to be part of the internet communities and try to identify people, but it is very difficult and we don't have a tool that you just need to switch on and everything is fine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We learn on a very hard way to put it, very diplomatic, uhm, that we haven't looked at the right


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Platforms at the right spots on the internet for increasing the chance of identifying people that might be starting to become weird and becoming a lethal threat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have around about 35,000 considered right-wing extremists across Germany. 13, 14,000 roughly spoken, uh, considered to be aggressive and violent. But the problem is it's like with an iceberg, uh, you see just a small tip on the surface and the rest is beneath.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, it's usually not very popular for someone from one agency and security branch to criticize some other, but the fact is that if we are warning as intelligence agencies for certain threats, if the police is warning and taking executive measures to take out those threats,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, basically belittles it, plays it down and doesn't see this threat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And takes the necessary measures, hard measures, uh, to hit the brakes basically, then our work is useless.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm afraid that what we discovered so far


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Again, here I'm coming with my iceberg example. It's just a peak. And there is more to be discovered. I am not afraid that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The vast majority of servicemen and women are considered or have to be considered to be part of these networks. That's not the case.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we have severe numbers that we should be worried about and we should find out immediately and very quickly who they are.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What their goals are and if we don't uh, identify those people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Probably a very bad, another bake-up call that is probably even more lethal than the ones that we already got.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We had, uh, the shooting and the brutal killing of, uh, uh, Director Lübcke, all done by Nazis.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Preparing for day X when they take over and destroy the democracy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not just dangerous because we have blood on the sidewalks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is that it's a word that describes or modifies a verb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now actually adverbs can modify other parts of the sentence like other adverbs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But in this video, we will focus on verbs and four kinds of adverbs. Adverbs of time. Adverbs of place. Of manner. And adverbs of degree.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Usually they will answer the following questions about the verbs. When, where, how, and to what extent. Let's look at these sentences. The boy ran.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So in the second sentence, we find out that the boy was very excited.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it's very important to understand adverbs and understand how to use them because they will make you speak English a lot better. So let's get started.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First, let's talk about the position of an adverb. So where do we put the adverb in the sentence? Now that is a bit tricky.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because the adverb in an English sentence can be in different parts of the sentence. Let's look at a few examples. She climbed the mountain slowly. Slowly, she climbed the mountain. She slowly climbed the mountain. Can you guess which word is the adverb?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The word slowly is the adverb. It describes how she climbed the mountain. And as you can see, the adverb


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is in three different parts of the sentence, but the meaning is exactly the same.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's now talk about how to make adverbs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now most adverbs, not all of them, but most of them, end in –ly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it's actually very easy. You take the adjective and you add –ly at the end. Let's look at a few examples.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you have the adjective, nice, and you add –ly to it, you make the adverb, nicely. So for example, you could say,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He is a nice speaker, using the adjective, nice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But you could also use the adverb nicely and say, He speaks nicely. A second example. If we take the adjective quick and we add ly, we can make the adverb quickly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we could say, he is a quick runner. But we could also say, he runs quickly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Be careful, guys. Not all adverbs end in –ly. Some adjectives


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't change form when they become adverbs. They're called flat adverbs. Typical flat adverbs would be early or late and a few others.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's very important to know these flat adverbs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because a lot of my students try to add –ly to some adjectives and unfortunately they make incorrect sentences. So let's take a look at an example.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, if I tell you, the car drove fastly. Do you think that makes sense?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now it does make sense to try to add ly to the adjective fast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But unfortunately guys, fastly does not exist in English. So the correct sentence is, The car drove fast. Another example.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He arrived late or lately to class. What do you think is the correct answer?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Again, it makes sense to try to add ly to the adjective late.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But lately is not the adverb of the adjective late. The adverb is late. So the correct sentence is, he arrived late to class. Let's now take a look.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Add a few sentences to practice finding and making adverbs that modify verbs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now remember adverbs tell us so much about the verb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Usually they tell us when or where or how or to what degree. So the first example we have is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He easily lifted the box. Can you spot the adverb in this sentence?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course, the adverb is easily ending in –ly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, and it tells us how he lifted the box. It's an adverb of manner. Now the second sentence, and this is a bit more difficult.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will download the file tomorrow. Now where is the adverb?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because there is no word ending in –ly. So it's a bit more complicated. Well, the adverb is tomorrow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it tells you when. It's an adverb of time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are sometimes a bit more difficult. Make sure you watch my next video. I will talk about them. Our third example now. I put it there. Again, no word ending in –ly. The adverb is the word, there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it tells us where. It's an adverb of place. We will talk about them in our next video as well. And our last example.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You didn't study enough for the test.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The adverb is the word enough and it's an adverb of degree. Okay, it tells us to what degree.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Again, it's not a word ending in –ly. And we will talk about adverbs of degree in our next videos.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Remember guys, it's very important to understand adverbs and to know how to make them. They will make you speak English so much better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In our next videos, we will focus on each kind of adverb. So make sure you watch the rest of the course. Thank you for watching my video and see you next time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank you guys for watching my video. I hope you liked it and found it useful. If you have, please show me your support. Click like. Subscribe to the channel. Put your comments below if you have any. And share the video with your friends. See you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now adverbs of time tell us when an action happens and also how long and how often.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now these adverbs are extremely common in English. So you really need to know about them. So let's start learning together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's now take a look at a few example sentences telling us when something happened. She ate ice cream yesterday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The adverb in this sentence is, have you noticed?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yesterday, of course. And it's an adverb of time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When did you eat ice cream? Yesterday. I see you now. Now where is the adverb in this sentence?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course, the adverb is now. Again, it's an adverb of time. When do I see you? Now. I tell him daily. The adverb is daily. Again, adverb of time. We met last year. Can you see the adverb?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Again, notion of time. When did we meet last year? And finally, he will call you later.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The adverb in this sentence is also an adverb of time. It is later.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So these are all adverbs of time. And as you can see in those examples, usually adverbs of time are at the end of the sentence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These adverbs are also usually placed at the end of the sentence. But let's have a look. She stayed home all day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which part of this sentence is an adverb? Can you see it? Of course. All day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it tells us how long she stayed home. I studied in Canada for a year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now in this sentence, for a year tells us how long I studied in Canada.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He has taught English since 1990.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How long has he taught English? Since 1990.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I studied English for four hours. Which part is the adverb? For four hours. How long did I study English for four hours? And finally,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have lived in New Zealand since 2005.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The adverb is, of course, since 2005.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Adverbs are not necessarily just one word. Okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since 2005, two words. For four hours, three words.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Adverbs telling us how often express the frequency of an action. They're usually placed before the main verb, but after the auxiliary verb, such as be, may, have, or must. The only exception


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is if the main verb is the verb to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In which case the adverb goes after the main verb. Let's have a look at a few example sentences. I often eat pizza. Can you spot the adverb?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's often, and as you can see,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It is placed before the main verb, which is eat. So, I often eat. The second example. He has never drunk cola. In this case, we have an auxiliary verb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the adverb is placed between the auxiliary verb and the main verb. He has never drunk. You must always brush your teeth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Same rule applies. We have an auxiliary verb, must. Okay. And we have the main verb, rush.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the adverb goes after the auxiliary verb but before the main verb. You must always brush. I am seldom late.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the main verb is the verb to be. Be careful. So in this case, the adverb goes after the main verb. I am seldom late.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And finally, he rarely lies.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The main verb is lies. So the adverb goes before the main verb. He rarely lies. Okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some adverbs expressing how often.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're called definite adverbs of frequency.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in this case, they're usually placed at the end of the sentence. Let's have a look at a few examples. I visit my dentist yearly. The adverb is yearly. Okay, once a year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a definite adverb of frequency. So it's placed at the end of the sentence. Another example. He goes to the gym once a week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Same thing. We have a definite adverb of frequency which is five days a week. So it's placed at the end of the sentence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Again, five times expresses the exact number of times that I saw the movie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now if you want to use more than one adverb of time in a sentence, you should put them in the following order. First, how long? Second, how often? And finally, when?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's take a look at a very good example sentence. He taught at the school for ten days every month last year. Now as you can see, first we're told how long for ten days. Then we're told how often every month.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And finally, we're told, when exactly? Last year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is a very good sentence using the different kinds of adverbs of time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the right order. So I hope you can do the same. Okay, guys. Let's do a bit of extra practice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have four example sentences for you to spot adverbs of time. So let's get started. He has been to Canada three times. Can you spot the adverb?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course, the adverb is the adverb of frequency three times. Okay? How often has he been to Canada? Three times. The second example is, generally, I don't like to eat spicy food. The adverb is generally.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And remember, I told you some adverbs of frequency work well at the beginning of a sentence if you want to emphasize the frequency.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So generally is one of them. Another example would be sometimes. Next example.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He will clean his room regularly from now on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now be careful. In this case, we have two adverbs. The first one, regularly. The second one, from now on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Keeping the order regularly is how often followed by when from now on. And finally,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've been going to church for four days every month since 1996. Three adverbs in this case. How long for four days? How often every month? When since 1996?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay guys, you now know a lot more about adverbs of time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They will improve your English skills very quickly. Okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now there are obviously other types of adverbs. Adverbs of place, of manner, and of degree. And I will focus on these in my next videos. So check them out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank you very much guys for watching my video. I hope you liked it. And if you did, please show me your support. Click like, subscribe to the channel, put your comments below if you have some, and share it with all your friends. See you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hello everyone. Welcome to this English course on adverbs. In this video, we're gonna talk about adverbs of place.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ant verbs of place tell us where an action happens.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They could also give us information on direction, distance, or movement. Let's take a look at a quick example. Let's go and play outdoors. Now...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In this sentence, the adverb of place is outdoors. It answers the question, where? Where? Outdoors. Okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now let's learn a bit more about adverbs of place together. Let's get started.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First, let's talk a bit about here and there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here and there are two adverbs of place that relate specifically to the speaker.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here meaning close to the speaker, close to me. There meaning farther away. Okay, let's take a look at a few examples. I put my keys there. So the adverb, there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Indicating the location of the keys and they're a bit farther away from you. Okay? Second example. Please come here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So these adverbs are placed at the end of the sentence. But you can also put them at the beginning if you want to emphasize the location. For example, Here are your keys. Here, close to me. There is your umbrella. Over there, farther away.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So in these two cases, I want to emphasize the location, so I place the adverb at the beginning of the sentence. Okay, guys?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's now take a look at adverbs of movement and directions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or w-a-r-d-s. It's the same thing. And they express movement in a particular direction. For example, homeward or homewards. Backward or backwards. Forward or forwards. Onward or onwards.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So they express a movement and they specify a particular direction. Let's take a look at a few example sentences. We drove eastwards.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or eastward. It would be the exact same thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The children looked upwards at the stars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You need to move forward one step.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So each time you have a movement, specifying the direction of this movement. Okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some adverbs express both movement and location at the same time. For example,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I say, the child went indoors, there's a movement. The child goes into the house.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's also a location. He's inside, indoors. Another example would be, He's going abroad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Finally, I could say, the rock rolled downhill.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's the movement going down, but it's also a location. Everywhere, somewhere, anywhere, or nowhere are adverbs of place as well. But they are special because they describe


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A location or direction that is indefinite or unspecific. For example,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I looked everywhere for my car keys. I'd like to go somewhere for my vacation. We're going nowhere.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now the difference is that an adverb stands alone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A preposition is always followed by a noun. So for example, outside. Outside can be an adverb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For example, we were waiting outside. It's an adverb. It stands alone. But it can also be a preposition. For example,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We were waiting outside his office. Goes with a noun. Another example. I kicked the ball around.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Around is an adverb. In this case, it stands alone. But it can also be a preposition.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I kicked the ball around the field. It goes with a noun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so an adverb stands alone. A preposition is followed by a noun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay guys, let's do a bit of extra practice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have a few example sentences for you to spot adverbs of place. First example.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] John looked around but he couldn't find his wife. Now remember, adverbs of place answer the question, where? Can you spot the adverb here?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course, it's the word around. Where did John look? He looked around. Second example.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I searched everywhere I could think of. Now, where did I search? Everywhere. Everywhere is the adverb. Let's go back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay guys, you now know a lot more about adverbs of place. Now I know it's hard to learn about all these adverbs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But don't worry. You'll get there. You just need a bit of practice. Okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now I'm going to carry on talking about adverbs in my next videos. So make sure to watch them. Thank you for watching and see you next time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Click like, subscribe to the channel, put your comments below, always nice, and share the video with your friends. See you!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hello everyone and welcome to this English course on adverbs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In this video, I'm going to talk to you about adverbs of degree.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Adverbs of degree tell us about the intensity of something, the power of something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But obviously, as always, there are exceptions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are very common adverbs of degree that I'm sure you use all the time. To, enough, very, extremely. But there are so many others.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's have a look at a few examples of adverbs of degree, especially how they are used with adjectives, adverbs and verbs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now adverbs of degree are usually placed


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And before the main verb of the sentence. For example


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the sentence, the water was extremely cold. You have the adjective, cold.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the adverb, extremely, that modifies the adjective, cold. And as you can see,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The adverb is placed before the adjective that it modifies. Second example. He just left.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In this case, the adverb just comes before the verb left, which is the main verb of the sentence. She is running very fast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now in this case, we have two adverbs. The adverb, fast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And finally, they are completely exhausted from the trip.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The adverb completely modifies the adjective exhausted and is therefore placed before it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some very common adverbs of degree in English are enough, very, and to. Let's look at a few examples. Is your coffee hot enough? So in this case, our adverb enough modifies the adjective hot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In that case, our adverb enough modifies another adverb, the adverb hard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And as you can see, the adverb enough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the adverb, very, modifies our adjective, beautiful. He worked very quickly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And as you can see, very is usually placed before the word that it modifies.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In that case, to modifies the adverb, hard. And as you can see, to...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is usually placed before the word that it modifies. Okay? Hope you got it. Let's move on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay guys, let's do a little bit of extra practice with a few example sentences. He speaks very quickly. Can you spot the adverb of degree?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's very and it modifies the other adverb of the sentence quickly. He speaks too quickly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Be very careful. There's a difference between very and to. Very is a fact.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To means there's a problem. Okay, he speaks so quickly that you cannot understand. He speaks too quickly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Another example. My teacher is terribly angry. Where is the adverb of the Greek?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's the adverb terribly that modifies the adjective, angry. They were almost finished. Can you spot the adverb?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's almost and it modifies the verb finished. Okay, so we're not finished yet. We're almost finished.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The adverb of degree in this case is the adverb, enough. And it modifies our adjective, big. And remember, enough usually goes after the word that it modifies. Okay. I hope you get it, guys.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay guys, you now know a lot more about adverbs of degree. And I'm sure this video will help you improve your English. But keep practicing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And make sure you watch the other videos on adverbs. They're very useful as well. Thank you for watching and see you next time.

[Assistant] In today's video, I'm going to talk to you about adverbs of manner. Adverbs of manner tell you how something happens.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they're usually placed after the main verb or after its object. Let's take a look at a few sentences. He swims well. The adverb, well...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tells you how he swims and is placed after the main verb, swims. He plays the piano beautifully.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The adverb beautifully tells you how he plays the piano.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And is placed after the piano, which is the object of the verb to play. Hope you get it. Let's get into more detail now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Adverbs of manner are usually placed after the main verb or after the object. For example, he left the room quickly. The adverb quickly is placed after the object, the room.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now just so you know, some adverbs, not all of them, but some adverbs can also be placed before the verb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So in this case, you can also say, he quickly left the room. What's very important for you to know


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is that an adverb of manner cannot come between a verb and its direct object. Okay, so it must be placed either before the main verb or after at the end of the clause. So let's take a look at a few examples. He ate quickly his dinner.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now this sentence is incorrect. Okay? Eight is the verb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His dinner, it's the direct object of the verb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the adverb quickly cannot be placed between those two. Okay? So you should say, He ate his dinner quickly. The adverb is at the end and that's correct. Or, He quickly ate his dinner.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now this is incorrect. You cannot separate the verb give from its direct object, a hug.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So two correct sentences would be first, he gave me a hug gently with the adverb at the end of the sentence. Or, he gently gave me a hug. The adverb comes before the verb. Hope you get it. Time now to practice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As you can see, we use the adverb, well. It tells you how he swam. And it's placed after the main verb, swam. The rain fell hard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Again, our adverb, hard, tells you how the rain fell and is placed after the verb. The children were playing happily.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The adverb is, can you find it? Happily. Of course.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She angrily slammed the door. Can you see the adverb? It's angrily. How did she slam the door? Angrily. And finally, slowly, she picked up the flower. Can you spot the adverb of manner? It's slowly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's at the beginning of the sentence because we want to emphasize the manner. And this is also something very common when you read books.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay guys, that's it for this video. Please make sure you watch the other videos on adverbs and keep practicing. Adverbs are extremely common in English and they will make you speak a lot better. Thanks for watching and see you next time.

[Assistant] Don't worry about it, honey. Subtlety is not really our thing. Come on, this way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh! Mr. King from across the street is going out of town for a few weeks. He was wondering if you could check his mail for him. Oh, and your friend Pierce called. I'm sure he has some crazy new get rich scheme. Oh, that Pierce. Such a card. And someone named Dex stopped by earlier. I didn't recognize him, so I just sent him away.

[Assistant] What the hell happened? So I'm in the plane doing my thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We got a problem. Now we're talking. What's up? The zen are coming.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What do riots and farming have in common? Is that a trick question? Nah, they're both bills being voted on right now. And they have nothing to do with each other, right? Okay, so get this. Oh god. You remember that anti-riot bill? Yes. Well, it passed in the House, but the Senate won't hear it. Why not? Farming! Is there someone that can explain this to me correctly? My assistant's still here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And sugar burning is bad? You ever get a sugar high? Really. It's the Gateway Sweetener! Soon you'll be sucking your pants to a Waffle House cook in a parking lot just for a couple packets of sweet and low. It's really bad.

[Assistant] Hello, my name is Dr. Keith Warriner. I'm a professor here in the Department of Food Science at the University of Guelph. I've over 20 years of experience in food microbiology. I've studied sushi, frozen dinners, vegetables. If it spoils, I've studied it. And things like spoilage, preservation are big interests of mine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Today we're going to test the science behind the myth that McDonald's burgers don't rot using ingredients from a grocery store. So we're here in the kitchen with my assistant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the reality is, it's just dried out. Microbes don't grow on it for the simple reason it lacks moisture. So what we're going to do is we're going to do a very simple experiment where we have a range of foods here and we're going to see how they fare when stored at room temperature. Even the highest quality food


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] During this cooking process what we expect to happen is to lose weight through loss of juices and also to lose moisture.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we've just cut the steak and what we're going to do now is come back in a few weeks time to see if it's actually dried out or spoiled.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's quite a bit, isn't it? That's why it looks like jerky. Now when we come to the cheese, we can see it visibly sweating. See this liquid around the side? And it's really tightened up like a sponge. Then when we come to the actual bun, it's basically dried out like a rock. Nothing can grow on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, if we want to try to reverse this experiment, why not get a hamburger put into a plastic bag with the moisture retained and sure enough, it'll spoil.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Mark, I hope that's answered your question and thanks for asking it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm afraid it's all still quite classified.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He invited us to show us some of the medical images from his patients and we sat there for


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] An entire day, one after another after another, looking at these chest x-rays, the worst I've ever seen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, shock, uh, I don't know how the, how many other words to, to use. I, I was really, uhm, taken aback not only that these cases were legitimate, but just how severe they were.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It indicated that we had a huge problem and we realized immediately that it wasn't going to be isolated to a single clinic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Seems so, ma'am. It sure paid a price trying to defend it. All quiet now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why don't we put the lady down and talk about this man to freak?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would've kicked your ass the first time if the lady hadn't stopped me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Son, I have a feeling before this is over we'll need every last Spartan in the fight. I can do this. Report back to the ship.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It would take me hours to say all of their names.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, the drone isn't responding. Hang on. Setting another one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like snacks, like a bag of chips and salsa today at the convenience store.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I was like, do you want to leave a tip, a tip for what? The cashier literally, and this is not an okay. They did literally nothing. I got the chips. I got the salsa. I paid. I tapped.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We do, and two significant breakthroughs this weekend in terms of the guards. We're gonna split these-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, yeaah, you know what? That's a great point, Bull. And we do have a read today, and our first read is Colleague- nope, not Colleague.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me find it, but I had saw a tweet this weekend that Mackenzie, if anyone didn't see, got sent back to the IL with elbow soreness. Which is never good. Which is never good, and a lot of times that leads to Tommy John surgery. And I'll find the exact tweet, but as I'm scrolling through Twitter, Paul Hoynes, he's with cleveland.com. He's going to be out of


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We had built graphics for that last week. We had to scrap it because something else guardians happened. It was, you wanted, you wanted to rant about calling Bo Nailer up and then it worked out. Remember we had that actually as a topic last week. We'll revisit that later this week, but there is a case to be made for a couple guys to potentially be all-stars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Question for you guys real quick on Bo Nailer though. What is a fair expectation for Guardians fans, for us, for anyone who's been clamoring for Bo to be called up, to have for Bo Nailer now for the rest of the season?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, it's not good. If you give me two seconds.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tampa has, yea, Atlanta has 9 more than Tampa. Atlanta in 72 games has 126.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was Shane Bieber for Tyler O'Neill, a prospect and a reliever I think I never heard of. It was, I have it right here. It was Liberator. Matthew. Liberator.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tyler O'Neill and Moises Gomez, St. Louis' number 12 prospect.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well no, did you have one last point? I was ready to get read and then I was finally ready to get. You caught me off guard. Maybe the first time in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A year and three months I've been completely caught off guard. I looked at my ad sheet and all these are old and not still current ads and I was like crap. I don't know what to say.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The camera works, so that's a big upgrade over last year's adventure. We have a wireless mic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's fine. We'll be okay, but I'm expecting a big win from the Little League Raptors. The Rocky River Raptors. Swiggy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You guys are all the rafters. Rocky River Rafters. Alliteration. Swinging door, man. Let's go. Swinging door. I'm expecting a big win. The camera will be out there. Yeah. And if you want to come, come check out some great Little League Baseball at Rocky River Field tonight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Both says the hot dogs and hamburgers are phenomenal. If you can't make it out to the rocky river swinging door literally game tonight, you can check out a USFL playoff game this weekend. Our guy boogie in a win or die situation made it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Except Boogie hurt his knee. He's getting an MRI right now, so he is not in on the show, but you can't see Boogie. Hopefully he will be back and healthy, taking on whoever they're playing in the playoffs. I honestly have no idea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the games are in Canton, you should go check them out. You get all your tickets, information, and needs at USFL.com.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I have followed the XFL outside of Boogie. The USFL outside of Boogie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We found out Pittsburgh is playing the Michigan Panthers, the team we saw them play and then beat, which means you can expect a low scoring affair because both those offenses were abysmal. So both those quarterbacks were terrible. Hopefully Boogie will eat again and have a couple more interceptions, sacks, all that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll put that in the YouTube chat, we'll get the answer later. Let's talk about our next topic here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, so our next topic. Yeah. Leads us into our big topic today, which is the Cleveland trade value rankings. But to get there, let's start with a proposed trade.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They were just talking, it was him, Jonathan Gavone, and Bobby Marks just talking about trades, hypothetical trades I think would spice up the league if they wanted to have some fun. Like they weren't saying these are talked about, these are just, these would be fun trades.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's, it's not really spicy. I tend to agree with you on that side, but they're just throwing out a couple potential options. And one of them that popped up that then as it does in the Twitter sphere, it says it, then it gets aggregated as they reporting it. And if you go back and listen, they were just talking about hypothetical options. They propose this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How about Kristaps Porzingis to the Cleveland Cavaliers in exchange for Jared Allen, Dean Wade, Jetty Osman, and a couple of second round picks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Positional value matters, and a non-shooting big in today's NBA does not have the equivalent value of a player of Alan's skill set to a much less skilled wing, but because they play different positions and shooting in 3 and D guys are so much more valuable, you'd be downgrading the overall talent level.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Through the 16th, fun, family-friendly events for everyone. Kids get in free. Concerts every night. Check out Firestone Country Club. It is a college company's championship, July 12th through the 16th.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can find all the information at callitgolf.com. So with that, let's get to the Cleveland


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the explanation. Before we get to that, I want to explain to people where this idea comes from, set it up in the full context, then we'll go Cleveland specific. Bill Simmons, the owner of the Ringer, does it twice a year, his annual NBA trade value column, where he ranks the top 65 players in terms of.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Their trade value once after the all-star break, once after the championship. So over the weekend.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He released his most updated list and it starts like this, Steve. You could take this one full, 177. One through five, Jokic, the champion, the single most valuable trade asset in basketball. He passed Janic at number two. He is Luka at three.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Victor Wumbanyama, who we assume will be a Spur later this week at 4, Steph Curry at 5, and then 6 through 10 real quick, is Tatum Booker, Gildriss Alexander, Anthony Edwards, and Kevin Durant to round out the top 10.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, he isn't shy away from the fact that he is a Boston Homer. Yeah. So on the list, he ranks his top 65 and there were three calves on the list and Steve take 179 here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Three Cavs who made the list were Evan Mobley at 16 in the budding superstar category and then Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland at 23 and 26 respectively in the F no we're not trading them category.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's the categories that he broke down into and the factors he used, which I also used in determining my rankings here, Steve take next, talent and skills.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Age, contract, positional value, and potential.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So a quarterback obviously has more value than an offensive lineman, especially an interior offensive lineman. Some positions just get a bigger haul back than others. So those are the factors that I use in determining my top 10 current as of today, June 20th, 1205 PM, most valuable trade pieces in Cleveland.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 65, just to give you an idea. I thought, oh the sons might, but then I realized Bradley Beal is literally dead last on his list. Uh, quick scroll, I'm not sure if another team is three.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't see another team with, with three. That is a very, very quick scroll, but I don't see. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I don't see three. I just quickly scrolled and maybe I overlooked. I see a bunch of teams with two, but I don't see anyone else with three. So that is Bill Simmons list. I took that idea and I wanted to apply it to Cleveland athletes. Now granted.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I am not suggesting to trade any of these. It's actually an honor to be on this list because it means you get a quality haul back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this is not in order, but these are the five guys who did not make the cut. Steven Kwan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had, when I talked to Jason, he was 10, I bumped him off. Yeah. Alright. Uh, for one other guy. Yeah. So we'll start with number 10. And once again, we'll go through these guys, talk a little bit on them. Alright, we got it. And then we'll go through 10. So number 10 is Shane Bieber.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Go ahead. Do you think I'm way off on what I think is value?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you get one top to your prospect, one legit major leaguer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll see, so next up, number nine, this came down to...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two guys who I thought could really be in this position, and after talking to Tyvis.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His draft pick don't get traded very often, but for Marcus Peters they got a second, uh, second round pick and a Kenny, uh, Kenny Young, a linebacker. So you're getting a second or third round pick and a late round pick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this was a tough one. I think he's hard to value and this positional value hurts in a little bit. I went with Emmanuel Classe at number eight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He has a very, very, very team-friendly deal. His average cap, he's making about $4 million. He has club options in 27-28, so the Guardians, essentially, if he doesn't fall off, will be here until the 2028 season. I looked at some comparable deals to Andrew Miller and Aroldis Chapman, where you got one top tier prospect back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gleyber Torres in the, uh, Chapman deal. And even with the Yankees, they got Clint Frazier back, who was the guardians top prospect at the chance. And then two mid-tier prospects for those guys.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It might be the second best contract in baseball and the first best contract in baseball is coming up in a couple of days, don't worry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, number seven, we are staying with the guardians though. Staying in the guardians infield. Not Jose, Andres Jimenez. Who just signed another team friendly deal. Now he would be even higher on this list.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I do believe he'll get back to that, as Jason said a bunch of times. I don't think he'll go from a 7-war guy to forgetting. The comparable deal I looked up for him was Luis Arriz.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Last year, who was traded from the twins to the Marlins, the Marlins gave up Pablo Lopez, one of their top pitching prospects and another young guy. I can't remember his name, but two top 10 prospects in the organization and a number of 17 guys. So three top 20 prospects, I think get a similar return for her men as who is a plus hitter at a valued position on a long term. Yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, number six. How about Deshaun Watson?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now I know the Browns gave up a ton for him. Free first round picks gave him the contract. He signed through 2026. He got the fully guaranteed deal. His average cap hit is 53 and a half million. Comparable deals. I looked at what the Jets gave up for Aaron Rodgers, which was a


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pick swap this year and a second or first next year, I looked at the Jay Cutler deal from Denver to the Bears, which was a first and a third.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think you'd get three first round picks back for Watson. Actually, I know for a fact you'd get three first round picks, but I do still, do still think you'd get a first round pick plus a little something back for Watson today. If you were in the trading block and I value NFL first round picks more than I value NBA picks or baseball prospects.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, so just to recap, 10 through 6, we had Bieber at 10, Newsome at 9, Klossay at 8, Jimenez at 7, Watson at 6. At number 5, we had Darius Garland.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now he signed a big deal, the rookie max extension last year. He's under contract through the 2027-2028 year. His cap hit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just shy of 40 million and a comparable deal for a guy of his stature, his age, his position. Thought you'd get back about 75% of what the Jazz got for Donovan Mitchell for a Darius Garland trade right now. I have him at number five on my trade list.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is correct, and I think one of those four does not belong with the other three in terms of their return, and I think the outlier is Donovan Mitchell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I think he still has tremendous trade value coming in at fours is obviously no slight, but he's only under contract through two seasons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was Barrett topping in 3 firsts. But I don't think you're getting 3 firsts anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The top three, the one with Jose Ramirez. He has an unbelievably team friendly deal. He's only making 20 million dollars per year, give or take.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think you would, I'll explain why when we're done here. I don't want to give away if Garrett's one or two here, but I think a comparable deal to what


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You would get back for, Jose Ramirez is what the Dodgers gave up for Mookie Betts and the Red Sox, which was Alex Verdugo, the number one prospect in their system. Uh, a center fielder whose name's drawn, drawn a blank on right now, who was the number six prospect in their system. A major leaguer who's an average major leaguer and then another top 30 prospect.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, the Dodger had to sign up to a large deal, which is why they probably didn't get even more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll get there. So the top two comes down to, and don't take it Steve, Evan Mobley and Miles Garrett.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I talked to Jason about this yesterday, I talked to Jay about this, I talked to Earl about this, I talked to Tyvis about this, and I talked to my two friends who are video coordinators in the NBA to try to get as many opinions on how to equally value what you'd get back for each player.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna tell you what I think each player would get back, then I'll tell you who's number two and who's number one. I think for Evan Mobley, you get about 70% of the go-bear slash Kevin Durant trade return. Which would be three first round picks, a pick swap, and a starting caliber player. A young, a young player you think could be a piece.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I looked at the Khalil Mack trade as what you could get as a possible return on investment on Myles Garrett, which was two first round picks and a mid round pick. And at the end of the day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I want with Evan Mobley at number two and Miles Garrett at three because I do believe NFL first round picks are the single most valuable asset in this entire project. Two of those outweighs three first round picks. And I don't love them. I don't know how you say NFL picks are real valuable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just to give you context, like this year's NBA draft, it is a three player draft. Teams are upset they got the fourth pick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Chubb was only one first, it was one first and a third, I apologize.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think you get two first and a mid-round pick for miles again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the Cardinals are not realistic, obviously, because they have Nolan Aronado. They wouldn't do this, but hypothet- No, I know. No, no, no, but hypothetically speaking to use that. So Jordan Walker is their number one outfield pro- number one prospecting organization with the outfield MLB ready.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you think you could get a Jordan Walker, Tyler O'Neill, and their top, one of their top three pitching prospects? I don't think that would be enough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think they get two ones out of two. The beauty of this is I have my list and we have three of y'all out there and you guys all have a different number one. Earl, what do you think real quick? How would you do the top three?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, there's not a huge track record. It's only O'Mack is the most comparable and he was too first round.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought Mike Garrett? Yeah. He is the sixth most sacks through six seasons ever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We got two more things we gotta do today, and we are going to transition to the first of the two. It was Father's Day on Sunday, so, I know we mentioned on the top, but happy belated Father's Day to everyone out there. You guys, uh, keep killing it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there's been some phenomenal father son duos in the history of sports. So we went through and I know we should have done this Friday beforehand. We're gonna do a Tuesday on the way out. I do our top five father son combos in the history of sports.

[Assistant] I dug deep on some of these. We'll start with number five. We'll start with some hockey.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They did, 35 between the two. Uh, number four. Bull, close your ears, cause you're not gonna like this one either. This is a choice for Earl. Earl, take the mic. Tell them like Dale Earnhardt. Earnhardt, yep. Oh my god. We got Dale Jones.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Obviously, maybe not obviously, but in my opinion, the greatest baseball player of all time, pre or post steroids, the home run king, seven time MVP, 14 time all-star, and Bobby, that was just the second player in major league history to hit 300 home runs, steal 300 bases. Those two both elite and Barry. So they should be number one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's not close. Not close. But to have two sons who will both be Hall of Fame quarterbacks, four Super Bowls all together, and because if it was just one son, probably not in the top three.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Together they have over 2500 career points, over 1300 goals. They're the royalty. They're royalty.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Greatest high school player of all time. His dad's the best or second best NBA player of all- I mean-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, legit, we do have a read and we gotta get one more thing in. And this is serious, this is dope. Love you, Bull. I can't wait to shoot your literally games.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, DJ Hazmat released his new single and DJ Hazmat's our guy. Talked to him yesterday. I can't wait to play. It's out there. If you haven't heard it, you'll hear it in a sec.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can apply online at precast.com slash careers to learn more. We're going to get has back on during the season with his weekly songs, but this was his schedule release.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is DJ Hazmat on the Brown schedule release.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Beautiful. Yeah, hey. Got my man Crooked Eye in here. Uh, you know, that's crazy cause I feel like all the members of Slaughterhouse are people that I've been following on Twitter since Twitter came out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And re-listening to all that shit, it's kind of crazy. Like there's not really a lyrical element that you could really identify. Like, like at the time it seemed dope. Looking at it in retrospect, it's kind of mind blowing just to think about the idea of this like lyrical super group from all over the world.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, do you feel like the shadow of that sort of, uh, haunts you in a weird way where there's these fans now who are just married to this idea?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] of this group, and it just meant so much to him, there's so many people, I feel like a lot of it is like the battle rap crowd.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was thinking that, that was like the first time that there was like a famous rapper girlfriend that I knew about. I mean, I'm sure there was shitloads of them, but you know, there was never a girl that was just famous for just being somebody's girlfriend, and now that is so the standard. Like, in fact, if any poppin' rapper wipes up a girl, boom, she's lit. Exactly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, in retrospect too, at the time, I feel like people might have taken for granted how difficult it is to like, create a group of a bunch of dudes who are grown ass men, who already have rap careers, who already have egos to whatever extent, that actually could work together to whatever extent, even if it only lasted a few years, it's pretty incredible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Five hours? See, I would think in that when I listen to your lyrics, it's like, man, I bet it takes this dude way longer than everybody else I know to write this shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nah, definitely. Nah, it's crazy to even imagine a time in which there would have been, like, high school students at a school in Pennsylvania that could have even, like, tested anything to do with what you were doing lyrically at the time. Especially because I'm imagining them, and imagining what their perspective on LA must have been.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All of us. Everyone from, uh, I'm from the East Coast too, and I remember just growing up, I thought Snoop Dogg and Coolio must be in the same gang. You know what I'm saying? They were together all the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, I did the disaster interview recently, I'm about to interview Daylight any day now, so I just spent a lot of time just like reviewing rap battles and stuff, and it's just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This style of rap and what people, like, choose to make this because a lot of these battle rap dudes, I realize now I'm following, like, they're, they live to fucking beef.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] See, I was never like a dope BMX pro or anything. I was just a guy with a camera who then I started like the first BMX website. And so, cause I was also just always a rap fan and I was looking at now, right? Two Dope Boys and I was just a fan. I was like 19, 20 looking at that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I was like, fuck, you know, I can do this where I have a blog and I can make it about BMX bikes. Right. And then allowed me to like, cause I realized that in like 2006, it allowed me to like leapfrog ahead of all the magazines and shit and just develop like a crazy fan base. And then over time just started to fuck with rappers, do rap interviews. And then all of a sudden that just became so much bigger than anything I was doing with the bike stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I think that in a lot of ways it kind of fucked me up in the head in the sense that I've never felt like I really got pleasure from just the act of doing something. I feel like I get my enjoyment from the act of feeling like I'm getting better at something, but then I don't end up focusing on just reveling in the act of


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, probably just how fucking cool Snoop Dogg seemed when I was like nine years old. Like I was, I remember just like hearing nothing but a G thing. I remember being like shocked by the beats and like just really like taking it back and it's crazy to think that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Still to this day, the Chronic and Doggystar have spoken about like these fucking things that just like shattered previous, you know, concepts of what hip hop was. And even as a nine year old that didn't know anything about rap, it's, that is exactly how I felt about it. Was like, this is like a sound, this sounds like the future. The G-Funk shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I feel like a lot of people probably can't wrap their head around about how fucking cool Snoop seemed at that moment because he was just tall, long ass flannel shirt, big ass afro. I had never seen anybody who made gangbang and looked super cool. Exactly. You know, I liked MWA.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But even, and sonically too, like when you really think about what NWA sounded like versus fucking The Chronic, it's like no, this is music. It's night and day. The beats on all the NWA shit is like Public Enemy style shit a lot of the day and stuff and it's dope, it has a good feel. Great beats, shit coming in and all that. But it is not like that Chronic shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gangbang and shit on the news and being kind of fascinated by this idea, like what the fuck is a blood and a crip and et cetera, et cetera. And then Snoop Dogg comes out and it sort of humanizes this whole thing that previously I was hearing politicians talk about it on TV and hearing about, you know, cause like gangster rap was a scapegoat at the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The question you just asked me is a good one for me to ask you too though. What was the like initial thing that drew you to hip hop? What was the artist?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. Yeah, that was one of the lines that stood out to me on that. What was it? Pain Away? Off of the new shit you've been doing? Yeah. That was a fucking cra- it felt like that was just this moment where you decided to just like, open up on that song. Cause you talked about your grandma too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. That's some wild shit. You feel like she, like she had that built into her head that she didn't want you to be dark skinned?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you're a young kid and you have your grandma basically inferring that the darker you are, the worse you are, did that, did you believe it? Or did you know that there was something wrong with this outlook?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I remember my grandma, like, cause my parents were so overwhelmingly anti-racist since I was a little kid and I remember one time my grandma told me that before I ate an apple that I had to wash it cause one of the little colored kids might have peed on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I just remember that being this weird moment where I was like, oh, so my grandma is not as smart as my mom. Like my mom understands the world better than my grandma. It's weird cause as a kid, you have this like blanket level of respect towards everybody who's older than you or at least I did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it was, it was alright. You know, I grew up in like a small city of like 80,000 people and the weird thing about that to me was always that I didn't know where I grew up. Like I didn't understand what this place was supposed to be like and then I got older and I would like come back


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like you go, you go back 10 years later and you realize like, oh there's hella fucking heroin addicts and crackheads walking around here. And as a kid, uh, you know, I would probably have thought like, oh, there's like a goofy ass lady that walks around downtown all the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No judgment. You know, and you don't really know what it is. And that's one thing that I...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wonder what it's like to grow up in a place where people have an extreme level of pride or where they're from because like, you know, I lived in Brooklyn for seven years and I got to see people who Brooklyn was everything. They didn't want to leave. They loved it. Long Beach is the same way. I lived in Long Beach for like three, four years, LA in general. But I mean, I grew up in a place where


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what was a weird moment in hip-hop was when Guru passed because that was sort of like early internet. And it was...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I guess it's because she beefed with these bloggers too much, so they decided to sort of do- it's like-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The political, like, misinformation campaign type thing, where it's like, no, we're gonna go through your entire history, every Instagram Live video you ever did, and we're gonna find every little offensive thing that you ever did, and then we're gonna trickle it out. Every couple days, we're gonna put it out and, like, slowly try to consume you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of the shit doesn't really make a lot of sense when you really dig into it because at the end of the day, what's she really talking about? She's talking about robin dudes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How many goddamn rappers that are legendary as fuck, how many hip-hop classics are there that are basically just about robbing somebody, nevermind killing somebody, shooting up a building, et cetera, et cetera. There's infinity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Classic songs about that topic. And we've always like, you know, as a rap community, people look at that stuff and they acknowledge it for what it is. It's like nobody really thinks that the person saying that is still doing that, or at least you hope that they're not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it's a question of like, you know, her as a woman, I think has a lot to do with it. We're looking at her and judging her by a different standard. And also I think this is like an awkward hip hop growing pain moment because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People are starting to look at the lyrical content in rap and judge it by the standard that they judge everything else in our culture. Which is weird, because for all these years, rap seemed like a fucking sandbox where guys who were disgruntled, who-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, like they had, uh, you know, grew up with a bad upbringing that sort of justified whatever they were going through or whatever they had done to make money or to establish themselves. And now people are looking at the context of all this hip hop history and saying, well no, actually this is really problematic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But people are trying to compare it to drugging and raping a girl, which it's not that. It's drugging and robbing somebody, which to her, you know, yea, she didn't rob somebody with a pistol, but she's a little girl. She probably needed to drug one of these dudes if she wanted to rob him. That's just a realistic scenario for her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But then all of a sudden you're on Pepsi. You're on Pepsi doing the Super Bowl commercial. Oh, we don't want you to be raw no more. And the shit you did 3, 4, 5 years ago, that shouldn't be raw either. That shit should line up with the standards of what you're doing right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who was doing a podcast, and he's like a former neo-Nazi. Like, he's telling stories, and one of the stories is like, you know, it's the worst shit you could probably imagine a guy doing. They're talking about walking into a McDonald's, seeing a bunch of black dudes, he's with his friends, and all of a sudden they're just fucking these dudes up. And I'm just thinking about it, I'm like, this is crazy, this dude,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's, it's tough, you know, it's tough to process that, like, like, on a one, on an individual level, how the fuck can you look at this guy and think like, oh, it's all good that you did all this fucked up shit. Those are people that he was attacking. It's not just an idea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is people's first time at being able to see somebody like Cardi B blow the fuck up and then be able to access, you know, ten years of everything she was doing online.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've seen blogs write articles about shit that rappers said that they did when they were 13.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I saw a rapper talked about punching a girl when he was 13.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then they wrote a blog post saying, like, yeaah, he was 13, but still, he's pretty fucked up to punch a girl, blah, blah, blah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that was the weird thing to see it not work.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think I was in there. Yo, probably, I was looking at it thinking like, yo, I'm pretty sure Jadakiss did not want Benzino to print this quote of him saying Eminem ain't shit type thing. I was pretty sure that like, even as a kid, I'm thinking like, man, did Benzino just call Jadakiss, get a quote from him and then print it? Yeah, probably did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank god that tape came out, because that's one thing, is that people love new shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. You know, like if that tape came out right now, it would not matter, but because, or no, it would, it would be a big fucking deal, but because it's so old, because it came out back then, if somebody tried to make a big deal out of it now, you'd be like, nah, I mean, it's Eminem, you know, yeah, he did something fucked up, but he's a good guy, right? Yeah, exactly, exactly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I felt like people did have a decent point though with him. They were like, man, Eminem doesn't have shit to say about this, but then all of a sudden he's doing an album rollout and he's got something to say. And not necessarily saying that that's a true thing about him, but there's a lot of rappers, a lot of people who don't have shit to say politically until it's advantageous for them and they need some headlines.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of times though I feel like the younger generation of rappers feels like they need to, or like there's a moment where they almost want to define themselves by showing that they're not going to be beholden to the prior generation and that's a weird


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think for someone to deal with like you who has these rules built in about like how these things are supposed to function. A lot of these young kids don't necessarily have that like when Odd Future came out and they had shit to say about


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not just Eminem, but a lot of different like entities and rap. I felt like that was one of the first time I seen it. When I seen Soulja Boy willing to go at Ice-T, that was one of the first times I seen it. And now...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. No, that's real. Kodak's a weird one because it's like, honestly, in my opinion, I do think that he is in the middle of a career that down the road, we're going to be able to look at it and possibly, depending on the moves he makes, be able to consider him to have like a classic, great hip hop career. I really feel like the level of, of,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Influence that he has over these young kids and be a young boy is the same way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unreal. His growth is amazing though. I'm not comfortable putting him in the same conversation with Tupac because we don't know how Kodak Black's legacy is gonna age.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I took it home and listened to it and I fucked with it but at the same time I felt like very confused about like, am I really able to be a Wu-Tang fan and also like this fucking weird wheezy voice ass kid?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. You know what I'm sayin'? You still got a love affair with Long Beach?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 2010 to 2013, and I did not see a lot of that. I went back like last year, oh my god, I'm like, this block is fucking lit, there's hella girls here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was just, you know, I owned a bike shop downtown, I mean it's still on Melrose, but we had it downtown for a few years, and you know, downtown was just, there was an underground rap scene, what people like, what eventually became known as like SoundCloud rap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was sorta unfolding in like downtown LA, all these crazy ass warehouse shows, and I was just all of a sudden, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Smoke perps pulling up to my store, little pumps stopping by, you know, like, and then I started to do a couple little interviews here and there with like dudes who were kinda the forefathers of that SoundCloud wave, even though they were realistically dudes who like came out like four or five years ago, but it's weird to talk about them like old heads, but uhm, and I was just sorta there, just going to a lot of shows downtown, it was really dope for me because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was the first time I felt like, oh, this is like a side of rap that I feel 100% comfortable in because these are ratty ass kids who are like skateboarder type kids and everything, you know? And it's like, I've always loved, and it's actually kind of weird for me to have come in the game having that reputation of like, oh, you're the guy who put a little pump on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because my rap taste was always towards way more street shit. That was always what I was more interested in even though I never like been directly trying to be about that life, you know? And yeaah, I mean it was just like a real organic thing for me where I was already interviewing with BMX riders in my shop.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then all of a sudden there was just people coming through and a lot of those people ended up blowing up. And then I remember when X blew up and I had his first interview, which I did that interview when he had like 10,000 followers or some shit. So I was just doing it because I was just interested. I thought his shit on SoundCloud was dope.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If anything like that experience of like, oh, so I'm like, like realizing like I did a bunch of podcasts not thinking that I was gonna get anything out of it besides maybe like a couple hundred bucks worth of YouTube money. And then that ended up being like the biggest shit I ever did in my whole life was just fucking with these young artists early on. And that just made me realize like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm 100% incentivized to put people on now and to like try to identify, you know, new talent and try to help them come up because I have a platform now where I can help them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was like, I had every label hit me up. I had managers for A-list artists hit me up. I never ever even thought that I would ever have a place in hip hop, besides just listening to it. And I was geeked on even just doing an interview with some 19 year old kid that I thought his music was dope, you know? And that, that to me is like the seed of everything that I want to do, everything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Should be based on like, I'm gonna do, I'm gonna do things to help people and then there's gonna be something somewhere that's gonna come back and help me out even if there's not a big reward in the short term.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, previously woulda had nothing to do with each other, maybe woulda known each other, say what up to each other, like now me and him are like tied to the hip, like every time I see each other, it's like we have like a bond. Just because I did something that I didn't even think was gonna be a big deal at all, and it fucking blew up his shit. Allowed him to put on for his people and everything on a level. Yeah, I saw that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People forget real quick, but there was a long time period there where it felt like, shit, there's all these rappers who are blowing up that live in LA, but there's not many people coming up that are like, from LA. And it felt like, kinda weird, like why, like all these people moved to Calabasas and shit, they might be at the clubs in LA, but meanwhile,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It felt like a lot of the dudes who were actually coming up out of the hoods in LA weren't really getting on on the same level. Now it's starting to feel like that's changing fast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I gotta say, Audrey Greedo and Draco the Ruler, even though, uh, both are incarcerated at this time, those two are my absolute favorites anywhere.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Crooked Eye, legendary west coast lyricist. Big conversation going about. Blueface.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How do you feel about his skill set and the overall performance? What do you think?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of people could swear that he's the anti-Christ of lyrics in hip-hop. He's not. I would agree.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Introduce him to your mom and your mom would be like, you know what, I like that kid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, the benefit of the doubt of just like kinda, you know, wanting to see somebody do good and not just wanting, that's especially with like, as a person who talks about rap on the internet, that's a big thing that I've had to realize is like, there's no win on me shitting on a new artist. Yeaah. There's nothing good that can come out of that. Cause I look like a fucking prick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It, it fucks up, you know, it could fuck up relationships, that dude definitely has got some manager that I'm supposed to be cool with or something, you know. It's just nothing good that comes out of shitting on somebody's attempts at making something out of themselves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you're young, it's hard to realize that you just love hip hop. You know? Because it feels like you love your neighborhood, you love the rappers that you like. I feel like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For me, there's a rapper from Chicago named Katie Got Bands and she came out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I seen a video of her and she was young as fuck. She actually had a pistol in one of the videos, which was so crazy. I had never seen a little girl with a gun in a video, but I remember just watching her and being like, holy fuck, like, I'm not going to be listening to this. This isn't for me, obviously, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It just got me really geeked seeing all these little ass girls in the audience screaming their lyrics back at her and shit. And that, I felt like that was a moment where I was like, oh fuck, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love this regardless of if it's this shit that I'm gonna drive around listening to. And that's a moment for you as a hip-hop fan, I feel like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Really? Six figure check was the death road deal or are you talking about before that? Before then. You had a six figure deal before that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You don't think you would do that? Like get annoyed by something somebody said about you online and pull it to a show?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's weird to get dragged back into that, especially when, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're in a position in your life where you're trying to do something positive, something creative, you feel strongly about how you feel, and then all of a sudden it's like the internet just wants to drag you back in. They always want to drag me bro. Nope, you're a rapper. You gotta be bullshit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was an interview clip though where you really, like I sensed like a real sense of emotion that you really sounded like disappointed when you were saying like, how are you gonna let these dudes shoot at you like that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I was like damn, I'm like realizing like damn on some lyrical shit, that must have been hard for you to like see Migos and Yachty or whoever it was at the time taking shots at him and he was just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm going to respond to the podcast. I'm not going to do the lyrical thing. That, that made me like, just think like, damn, the lyric shit is such a religion to, to Crook and Joe and etc.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, in a long-term way, I get how that was the right route for him because now nobody expects him to respond. Cause after the fucking Migos and Yachty shit where there's iffy hatin' Kong, Joel Button.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was just in Australia with Yachty, and he's performing that in front of, you know, however, 20, 40,000 fucking white kids were all in Mali and shit, and they're all screaming that shit as if they actually have a problem with Joe Budden. And I'm, if you were to poll the entire fucking group and you were to say, what did Joe Budden do that offended you? I don't think that anyone out there would have had an answer. Yeah. But that, I mean, shit, that's something about-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just how difficult it is to establish rapport with people in terms of creating a podcast or something because the state of the culture shit's cool. I love Remy Ma, but they just don't have a rapport that's even close to what he has with Rory and Mal because they actually are real friends that kick it all the time. Like there's like a level to your discourse that builds over time because every conversation you have


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is building upon the overall conversation, and that's why I'm always like, thinking about that, like, yo, if me and you did an interview in


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're working on building something which is good because it's definitely a very like different vibe with that and everything but it is weird watching how different those two shows are and watching what different versions you get of Joe and then once in a while I'll catch a fucking loving hip-hop clip of Joe and I'm just like oh my god this is like an alternative universe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I seen a couple clips on YouTube and it is wild. I seen Joe screaming at fucking safari the other day. Oh god.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I feel like when people like shoot to stardom or whatever, they all of a sudden realize that that privacy is like the only thing that they have, the only thing that they control. And I, I totally get why the bigger artists gets, the more that they pull back on being able to show that stuff. Like if I, in your position, I think


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Damn, that's so true. It would have worked a lot easier that way. You can introduce a lot more characters and shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here they are for two minutes. I felt having Tupac in there felt kind of weird. Like, you know, it was probably unnecessary, but it was still kind of like, damn, like you're just going to show Tupac like he's just some regular guy. I really felt like.


[User] Please transcribe this text
