Transcript: 00:00:00 Jack You're listening to the A-Z English podcast. 00:00:14 Jack Welcome to the A-Z English podcast. My name is Jack and I'm one of the hosts of the podcast and today I am joined by three of my good friends, Leila Hendrick and me. 00:00:25 Jack And we are actually doing a well, a kind of would you rather question and this was brought to me by Layla and the question is what would you sacrifice for one extra year of life so. 00:00:43 Jack For example, if you were going to live to be 74 years old then. 00:00:50 Jack You you sacrificed one year. You you only live to be 73 or sorry. You could live to be 75. Sorry you could live to be 75, but you have to sacrifice something. What would you give up? 00:01:05 Jack To get one extra year. 00:01:08 Jack And what we got to put some rules here. It can't be like, oh, yeah, I'll give away my pencil, this pencil. I'll. I'll give sacrifice. It's got to be something that's like important to you. Yeah, that's necessary. Right. Right. So, Layla, what would you sacrifice? 00:01:29 Jack For an extra year of life, and of course, there's always the option to say nothing you could say I wouldn't sacrifice anything. 00:01:37 Layla Yeah, right. 00:01:39 Layla Yeah. And as you, as you mentioned, Jack, the question represents something should be very, very serious and necessary because sacrifice, sacrifice, something that mean that means you have something. 00:01:58 Layla You really need it. You would you. You couldn't live without it, but you have to get rid of it for getting something and or maybe another. Something very precious. So for example. 00:02:14 Layla In my case, I live in a hot country so. 00:02:19 Layla Could I sacrifice? 00:02:23 Layla Air conditioner air conditioning system to look just in the hot weather for one year. 00:02:32 Layla It's really hard. It's really tough or maybe so it should be something very, very serious and necessary. I think maybe maybe about food as as long as I don't care too much about food, so maybe I will sacrifice me. 00:02:34 Jack Right. 00:02:48 Layla It's it's easy for me to eat vegetables and the bread and something like that, so maybe I can live extra here. Just eating vegetables and without eating meat. I think that maybe. 00:03:04 Layla I will say that. 00:03:06 Jack This is interesting because if you give up meat, that may actually give you an extra year of life, maybe more just because eating meat. 00:03:11 May OK. 00:03:14 Layla Yeah, yeah. 00:03:16 Jack Is kind of. 00:03:17 Jack Not good for us, right. So you're if you become a vegetarian, you might actually. 00:03:23 Jack The You this might come true. This might be a real like realistic, not just a magical thing, you know, hypothetical. It could be real, yeah. 00:03:34 Layla Yeah, it's really hard without without having different types of food, but for some people, maybe it will be. 00:03:45 Layla Possible like my situation? 00:03:48 Jack Yeah, I couldn't. I could not give up meat for, and I don't think I could give up meat for an extra. 00:03:56 Jack 10 years I don't. 00:03:58 Jack Think I don't think there are enough years to to, you know, to to, to, to make me give up meat. 00:04:02 Layla Yeah, it's really hot. 00:04:06 Jack Ohh, but I would love to. I would love to be a vegetarian. 00:04:09 Jack I I know it would be good for me. 00:04:11 Layla But I will never sacrifice my phone and Internet. I I wouldn't. Yeah. 00:04:16 May Go on an Internet.
