Jack
Welcome to the agency English podcast. My name is Jack, and today I'm with my co-host, social. And we are doing.
00:00:20
Jack
We are taking a fun personality quiz and so social. I have several questions that we can go through, and then there's a menu of items that you can choose like there. There are answers you can choose. And I thought it'd be kind of funny or fun.
00:00:40
Jack
To see what our answers are to these questions. So.
00:00:44
Jack
So #1 is, if you had to live alone on a deserted island with only one item, what would it be your favorite novel?
00:00:57
Jack
A fishing pole.
00:00:59
Jack
A 50 LB. Bag of rice or a box of matches. Which of those?
00:01:05
Jack
Four, would you take?
00:01:18
Xochitl
I would take.
00:01:22
Xochitl
The 50 LB. Bag of rice.
00:01:26
Jack
OK, OK.
00:01:26
Xochitl
Because Bryce doesn't spoil quickly.
00:01:30
Xochitl
UM and.
00:01:33
Xochitl
I know I can build a fire like from scratch and.
00:01:40
Xochitl
I think I would eventually be able to make some kind of fishing rod to supplement the rice or something, or a net, you know, but I think that.
00:01:52
Xochitl
You would need something to sustain yourself while you are.
00:02:00
Xochitl
Getting everything else in order and that 50 LB. Bag of rice can take you a long way.
00:02:06
Jack
How how are you gonna boil that rice, though?
00:02:08
Jack
Without a pot.
00:02:10
Xochitl
Well, you can make a makeshift pot way more easily than you can get anything else.
00:02:16
Jack
Like a coconut kind of coconut pot? Yeah.
00:02:18
Xochitl
Yeah, I just put a coconut and.
00:02:19
Xochitl
Fill it with the sea water.
00:02:21
Xochitl
And uh, boil that on the stove, you know? Well, on the on some sticks. Fire stick, you know.
00:02:28
Jack
Do you know how to make do you?
00:02:28
Xochitl
What I mean?
00:02:29
Jack
Know how to make a fire without?
00:02:32
Jack
You know, like, naturally, with without any.
00:02:34
Xochitl
Yeah, there's a couple methods. I mean, I'm sure you know.
00:02:36
Xochitl
The how to right?
00:02:38
Jack
I know that like stick one, but I'm afraid that I would never be able to do it, so I chose DA box of matches because I feel like.
00:02:49
Jack
Although if they get wet, they're useless. But if they're dry, I'm assuming they're dry matches. Then I can use those to build a fire and maybe make like a smoke screen. You know, smoke signal. So that like a ship will know that I'm stranded on.
00:02:51
Xochitl
Yeah. Then yeah.
00:03:09
Jack
On this island.
00:03:10
Jack
But if I don't get rescued, I'm in big trouble unless I go catch some fish or some crab or something out there on the beach in the water.
00:03:20
Xochitl
Right. Yeah, I there's like those stone method and the stick method and I think I would eventually be able to recreate it.
00:03:29
Jack
OK.
00:03:29
Xochitl
And I have enough faith.
00:03:30
Xochitl
In myself to uh for the 50 LB. Bag of rice.
00:03:35
Jack
Right. I mean that's that's a bold statement that because starting a fire, I don't know, it seems very difficult, but if you could get that fire.
00:03:44
Jack
Going I'm sitting over there with my fire. Hungry. As you know, super hungry and you're, you know, got your fire and a 50 LB bag of rice so.
00:03:55
Jack
You're in a better situation.
00:03:56
Xochitl
I mean, ideally if we if.
00:03:58
Xochitl
You're here. You have to be alone. But if you're on the island together and you brought your matches and I brought my rice.
00:04:03
Xochitl
So we'd be set pretty much so.
00:04:05
Jack
Yeah, yeah, it will be all good. Yeah, we'll we'll be sick of eating rice, but it'll be OK.
00:04:11
Xochitl
Yeah, well, it'll sustain.
00:04:13
Xochitl
Us long enough to catch some fish in the ocean or something, so yeah.
00:04:16
Jack
I mean, it's better better than reading war and peace for the 15th time or
