Jack
Welcome to the Ados English podcast. My name is Jack and I'm here with my co-host social. And today we're going to do a would you rather question and today's would you rather question is?
00:00:13
Jack
Would you rather never have to sleep again, or never have to eat again?
00:00:21
Xochitl
Never have to sleep again, or never have to eat again. So the situation is you.
00:00:29
Xochitl
But can you sleep or eat if you want to, or you just can't eat again or sleep again?
00:00:36
Jack
I think in this case you like you never have to. Like you can if you want to.
00:00:42
Jack
But you but you. But you don't have to like you don't feel tired.
00:00:48
Xochitl
That makes it harder because it's like if you never have to eat again, you know.
00:00:52
Xochitl
How much money?
00:00:53
Xochitl
You would save.
00:00:54
Jack
I know, but if you never have to sleep again, think of how much money, how much more work you could do to.
00:00:56
Xochitl
But if.
00:01:00
Xochitl
Yeah. And you could just do stuff all the time. Like you could take, like, the eight hour plane. You could take the red red eye flights cause you not even be tired.
00:01:10
Jack
Yeah, you could read books like all night long or just watch like an entire series on Netflix and then not even.
00:01:20
Xochitl
Tired. You know what would probably happen is that people would just spend more time watching things on, like YouTube or not like if if they had an extra 8 or 9 hours every day, it's very unlikely that I would start doing something productive with that time.
00:01:35
Jack
No, no. I would just, I would just find I'll find a way to.
00:01:38
Jack
Kill. There's so much content now.
00:01:40
Jack
No, I mean we have like almost 500 episodes of this podcast already already published.
00:01:46
Xochitl
Crazy, crazy, really. I remember when we did episode #100.
00:01:48
Jack
Yeah, I mean you.
00:01:51
Jack
I know. I mean it's it's it our website has, we have probably almost 500 episodes like we're it's you could just spend a week with A-Z English podcast If if if you were inclined with that extra 8 hours a night you know.
00:02:08
Xochitl
Yeah. Well, in my case, I think I would.
00:02:12
Xochitl
This is a tough one, but I think I would rather never have to sleep again because I am.
00:02:22
Xochitl
I feel like I could just travel so much more if I didn't have to sleep anymore and eating is something I really I really enjoy and trying new foods and stuff and it would be kind of hard to eat if you don't feel hungry ever at all.
00:02:34
Jack
Yeah, you would only be eating for enjoyment.
00:02:35
Xochitl
Like, yeah.
00:02:39
Xochitl
Yeah, but and it just doesn't give you the same joy as like being ravenous and like stuffing down a delicious meal and then feeling full, like, that's part of the experience. And you would have been using that whole part.
00:02:52
Jack
Is is there is there like?
00:02:54
Jack
A I read like a Chinese proverb or something that said.
00:02:58
Jack
Hunger is the best condiment.
00:03:01
Jack
Something like that.
00:03:01
Xochitl
That's a. That's a, that's a saying in Mexico too, is in.
00:03:07
Xochitl
Lambres and Nicholson, which means like uh, hunger is the best flavor or best. Yeah. Yeah. Jack, what about you? Would you rather never have to sleep again or never have to eat again?
00:03:20
Jack
No, I would definitely never have to sleep again. I I I don't. I I.
00:03:26
Jack
I'm I'm a night owl by by nature, but I, but at lately I've been as I've gotten older, it's harder for me to stay awake at night. I just fall asleep at, you know, 9:00 or 10:00 at night sometimes.
00:03:39
Jack
And I would love to just always feel awake, you know? I mean, just imagine, like, it's almost like a superpower. You know. You're. Yeah. And I love food, you know, so the problem is if I'm awake all th
