The Italian Miscellaneous Podcast🖐 

San Pellegrino, non solo acqua! (tinos e tanos) 

Host: Welcome back to the podcast everyone. I’m joined today by Naseem, an IT consultant from 
Delhi and Deepa, an HR consultant from Bangore. Today we’ll be discussing the increase in the number of people moonlighting and what the future holds for companies and workers. So, Deepa, I’ll ask you first: What has created this problem?

Deepa: Well, as with many places around the world, during the pandemic, there was a big increase in the number of people working from home and also economic instability. So, at the same time, we had more people working without any supervision and people were more worried about being able to make a living. So, the increase in online moonlighting was a consequence of that situation really.

Naseem: That’s certainly what happened to me. At the time, you read about all of these companies that were *laying off * their staff and there wasn’t much you could do about it if it happened to you. So suddenly working for just one company seemed like a bad idea. I have a family to feed: three boys and a girl. I felt a lot of insecurity and was terrified of losing money, or maybe even worse, my house. So, I took two jobs.

Host: What effect did that have on you and your family?

Naseem: It gave us some comfort, financially, as I started making more money than I had before the pandemic. But I was also working very long hours each day. I saw the children every day of course, but I couldn’t spend any real time with them as I had to work from almost as soon as I got up, until late in the evening. My wife was working as well, so it was quite hard to manage everything. When the crisis was averted, we had gotten used to having the extra money, so although I cut back on my hours in both jobs, I still continued to work at both.

Host: Do you see anything wrong with doing what you are doing?

Naseem: Not at all. I’m a professional and I work hard at both jobs. My main job is in IT as you mentioned, but my second is in design.

Episode #33 - My favorite film 3 - David Cronenberg

Ciao, buongiorno, buon lunedì primo giorno di luglio.
Non volevo fare il podcast questa settimana, ma poi non ho resistito.
E semplicemente ho inziato a parlare.
E questo è il risultato.
Non c’è la trascrizione.
Non ci sono esercizi.
Per un momento mi sono sentita una speaker radiofonica.
Ma ci sono delle espressioni carine - “NON FATE I VAGHI”.
E la nuova parola è NEGHITTAGGINE.
Vi abbraccio virtualmente tutti e so che festeggerete un po’ con me.

Erschreckende Zahlen:
USA: Mehr als 50 Schusswaffentote pro Tag

Das Ausmaß an Waffengewalt in den USA ist beispiellos. 2020 wurden im Schnitt mehr als 50 Menschen erschossen - täglich. Auch das Massaker in Texas wird die Situation kaum ändern. In keinem anderen Land auf der Welt gibt es mehr Waffen und mehr Waffengewalt. Amokläufe und Schießereien gehören zum Alltag.

可怕的数字：
美国：每天有超过 50 人死于枪击事件

美国的枪支暴力程度是前所未有的。2020 年，平均每天有 50 多人被枪杀。即使是德克萨斯州的大屠杀也很难改变这种情况。世界上没有其他国家拥有更多的枪支和更多的枪支暴力。暴行和枪击是日常生活的一部分。

El Martin Fierro

⭐ In this B1-level podcast we will delve into Modern and Classic languages, explore the history of the French language, and discuss artificial and fictional languages. We will also practise using complex relative pronouns, built with “lequel”, “laquelle” and “lesquel(le)(s)”, as well as expressing doubt with structures such as “I don’t think”, “I don’t believe” followed by the subjunctive. Additionally, we will review the vocabulary related to languages and much more.

⭐ In the first part of this podcast I will speak French only, and in the second part I will translate and explain everything I said in English.
