President Barack Obama.
Virginia, we are counting on you.
Republicans want to steal enough seats in Congress
to raid the next election and wield unchecked power
for two more years.
But you can stop them by voting yes by April 21st.
Help put our elections back on a level playing field
and let voters decide not politicians.
Vote yes by April 21st.
Paid for by Virginians for fair elections.
Oh, every day.
Listen to the wrong radio.
You're listening to Born Radio.
You mean, every day.
Born Radio.
All right, everybody.
Welcome back to the drive time show.
We're into the final half hour.
I can't believe it.
Time flies while you're having fun.
Now, David is with me.
And David said he's got a special section for us, right?
An interactive section.
Another interactive section.
David, let's check out today's what's that sound?
What's that sound?
Oh, yes.
So if you want to participate in this one,
you can write in.
Now, David's going to play a sound and you can write in
and tell me what it is on Twitter or on Instagram.
David, how can they find me?
Oh, yeah.
That's right.
I'm Kyle Miller.
There's a name on Instagram and on Twitter and on Acts
and all these places.
So I strongly encourage you to participate, David.
Let's hear that sound.
Now, this is interesting.
It's out.
Now, there's a famous song that...
I'm going to say there's a song by Huey Lewis and the news
that starts with that.
But I'm sure that's not what David is thinking.
But let's hear it again.
Ah, okay.
Okay, so if you know what this is, right in.
And let me know what it is.
Tell me what it is and we'll talk about it a little bit later on the show.
Now, I'm trying to think of the song, song with...
Yeah, it's a song.
Ah, yeah, there's a song called The Heart of Rock and Roll.
The Heart of Rock and Roll.
Do you know that song, David?
Well, no, I don't know it.
Or maybe at the end of the show.
Maybe at the end of the show, you can play that song by the band.
Do you know Huey Lewis and the news?
Yeah, I think it.
I think I know them, yeah.
And if you can find that song, The Heart of Rock and Roll.
Maybe later on we can hear it.
But you have to hear it.
You're going to have to preview it, David,
because we need to hear the opening sequence.
Because I think the...
Do you have it there?
Okay, let's...
Well, hey, let's...
Yuck is that much.
Let's hear it now.
And just see.
We're testing my own knowledge here.
If it, you know, to see if I remember this correctly, let's hear it again.
Yeah, that's...
Okay, oh, David is...
Okay, hold on here, folks.
We've got...
We've got our team...
Our technical team here at Vaughan Radio working on it
to bring you this...
Sam, here we go.
Right?
Homebody.
Now listen to the guitar...
How it comes in here.
Very 80s.
We'll chant data.
Here we go.
Right?
It's a great song.
Yeah, that was really good.
Yeah, it does, man.
It's a good song.
Yeah.
The heart of Rocco.
So, when you played that, it reminded me of that, David.
You have to admit it's similar, right?
The pace is different, but it's very similar.
Very similar, yeah.
It's very similar.
I would say.
So, now, knowing that,
let's let people write in and participate
and tell us what they think that is.
But while you're thinking about that, let's move on
and have a look at today's awesome adjective.

D, 30.
E.

G.

H.

I.

J.

Awesome.
Adjectives.
Oh, yeah.
The awesome adjective.
Now, today, we've got a couple of adjectives,
but I want to talk about a concept.
It's a concept, though, right?
A concept, which is adjectives that end in ED
and adjectives with ING.
This is an important concept,
because I hear a lot of mistakes with this.
I'm talking about board and boring.
Excited.
Exciting.
So, when it is the ING,
it's look at provoca.
Look at sayah, right?
It causes that feeling.
If it is the ED,
it is the victim, let's say,
or it receives and experiences that feeling.
So, David, are you interested in today's show?
Yes.
I think it's very interesting.
Ah, so the show is,
because the show is interesting,
David is interested.
Right?
Yes.
Now, if the show were bored,
sorry, if the show were boring,
would you be bored?
Well, maybe not.
Maybe not.
I mean, some people would be,
that's what I, I want to make sure.
I try to make sure that the show isn't boring,
because if the show were boring,
people might be bored.
Right?
But I'm excited by exciting things.
I'm fascinated by fascinating discoveries, David.
I'm amazed by amazing achievements.
I don't.
Right?
I'm shocked by shocking occurrences.
I'm tired by tiring experiences.
You know, if I go to the gym,
it's very tiring.
And I'm tired after.
Actually, not really.
I kind of get more energy after the gym.
I'm interested in interesting things.
What are you interested in, David?
Are you interested in the ocean?
Well, I'm interested in history, for example.
Okay, David is interested in history.
Do you find history interesting then?
Very interesting.
Okay.
It's like knowing ourselves.

Yeah.
In order to know where you are,
you have to know where you've been.

And not a lot of sugar or extra junk.
It's healthy.
Yeah.
Anyway, there you have it, folks.
That was a little bit of vocabulary.
Now, before we take a break, or before we finish, I should say,
I want to make sure we get to the responses in the internet world here.
People are writing in about all these sections on our show.
So let's check in.
We had the Twitter translation.
I said, come and see the thing in English.
Wait.
And let me check my definitive guide here.
I said, so the sentence today.
I said, how do you say in English?
Penseen.
Yeah.
Penseen.
So let's see.
Born to Ironman says, I thought about it.
While I was driving.
Very good.
Yeah.
Perfect.
While I was driving.
Or you could say, while I was driving my car.
But yes.
I thought about it while I was driving my car.
And Alfonso says, I thought about it while I was driving.
Correct.

Heartbeat.
We've been to all.
Right.
Okay.
See.
Heartbeat, heart beating.
Very good.
Well done.
We've been to all.
Well done.
Okay.
Let's move on everybody.
We don't have much time left in our show.
So why don't we take a moment and.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Let's take a moment and go back in time and have a quick look at today in history.
Today in history.
Today in history.
Today in history.
today in history we're going back and looking at the this day in 1513 whoa one
bunched and I own claimed Spain. I already claimed Florida for Spain. He said
Esoia, Spain. Yeah, the Spanish explorer became the first known European to
set foot on what is now Florida selling under the Spanish flag. He landed
somewhere between St. Augustine and the mouth of the St. John's River in Florida.
It's now Florida and in the land La Florida inspired by the lush vegetation right
very green and the end the Easter season known as Pascoa Florida in Spanish.
This marked the beginning of Europe's exploration and colonization of the
southeastern United States. Now his journey was driven by a mix of ambition and also myth
mito. He was looking to expand Spain's territories but legends suggest that he was also searching
for the fountain of youth, a mythical spring Fuente de Agua that said was said to grant eternal
youth. Now some historians debate the validity of that claim but the story has become an enduring
part of the of the legacy in his legacy I should say. Now the landing in Florida was not without
its challenges. Her own breath though. Claro. Her own poco de fiefil. He and his crew encountered
resistance from indigenous people who had been in the region for obviously much longer and these
encounters were often marked by conflict. European explorers disrupted, established communities
and tried to impose their own rule. Despite these challenges, Ponce de Leon's expedition paved
the way. Abriol Camino to pave is like a third pavimiento when you when you do the you make it
smooth and official like like when you make a road you know not not rough but paved. So it's
like to pave the way. Pavimentad thank you very much. Pavimentad al Camino which is like Abriol Camino
we say to pave the way for future Spanish exploration and settlement in the Americas as well.
Now Florida would also later become a key territory in Spain's colonial empire
and would have a great influence on culture and historical landscape of the region.
Now today his legacy is commemorated in many ways. There are statues and parks
in the city of Ponce in Puerto Rico named in his honor. His landing in Florida remains a
significant milestone in the history of European exploration. So there you have it. We also had
on this day in 1801 we had the Battle of Copenhagen the British Royal Navy. That was Horatio Nelson
in the gang. Engaging the Danish fleet in battle in Copenhagen. Part of the Napoleonic wars that
kicked off on this day in 1801. We also had the Falkland Island Wars beginning on this day in 1982.
Argentine forces invading the Falkland Islands in the South Atlantic on this day. Anyway lots
of interesting history but we're out of time. We are going to finish there but I encourage you
if you if you find it challenging the the warm-up gym for example the challenge the sentences that we
do there at the start of the show. We also do the mastering interrogate if those are sections that
I do recommend you review. So if you have the show in podcast form you can go you can download it
every day and just work even if it's with those sections just work with it every day because we
have great content for you every day to help you keep improving your English polka polka little by
little slowly but surely every day okay thanks for listening everyone we'll be back again
