1
00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:05,880
Speaker 1: Hey there, welcome to Grown Up with Emily, a lingo

2
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:09,039
Speaker 1: kids podcast. It helps kids discover how to be whatever

3
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:21,279
Speaker 1: they want to be. Winson, Winson, what are you doing, hi, Emily?

4
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:24,120
Speaker 2: Sorry, I didn't hear you over my hammering.

5
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: What are you working on?

6
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 2: Well, I'm building a doghouse for my neighbor's puppy or Ryan.

7
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 2: But this nail stubborn?

8
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 1: Whoa? Why don't you put the hammer down for a sec?

9
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: Do you have a blueprint for that doghouse?

10
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:47,199
Speaker 2: A blueprint? I have a fingerprint, but see it's definitely

11
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 2: not blue.

12
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 1: Not a fingerprint, A blue print. A blueprint is like

13
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 1: a detailed map of how to build something like construction

14
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 1: workers use.

15
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 2: Construction workers you mean the peapeople who wear yellow helmets

16
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 2: and stripey jackets.

17
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 1: And safety boots. Yep. What else do you know about

18
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 1: construction workers? Winston?

19
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 2: Okay, I know they have lots of cool tools, that's true.

20
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 1: Construction workers use tools and machines to build all kinds

21
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: of things like houses and.

22
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,400
Speaker 2: Schools and playgrounds.

23
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 1: Yes, and playgrounds too. Yes. Actually, there's a construction site

24
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: just down the street. Why don't we take a visit.

25
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, and maybe I'll get some pointers from my own

26
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:34,040
Speaker 2: construction project.

27
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 1: Good thinking, Winston.

28
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 2: Let's go.

29
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 3: Wow, construction sites sure are noisy.

30
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 2: Aren't they.

31
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 1: That's why we need to put on these protective gear

32
00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: mups to block out the sounds.

33
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 2: Oh that's better. Uh, Emily, can you still hear me

34
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 2: with my ear muffs on?

35
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: I sure can? Can you hear me?

36
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 2: Yes? But you're really far away. What's that I said?

37
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 2: I can hear you, but you're really far away? Huh Okay,

38
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 2: that's better.

39
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's easier to talk inside the truck.

40
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, with a front seat view of the action. Check

41
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 2: it out. This building is enormous and there's so many windows. Hey, Emily,

42
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 2: why don't windows laugh at jokes? Oh?

43
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: Boy, here we go. I don't know why don't windows

44
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: laugh at jokes.

45
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 2: Because they really don't like cracking up? Get it cracking up?

46
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 2: Because windows don't want to break.

47
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 1: Ah, I get it clever. Oh wait wait wait, safety first, Winston.

48
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: Construction sites can be dangerous with all these tools and

49
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,119
Speaker 1: vehicles around here. Let me show you how to put

50
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: this hard hat and vest on.

51
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 2: Oh it's really hard. Is that what it's called a

52
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 2: hard hat?

53
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 1: Exactly? Hard hats protect your head in case something falls

54
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 1: on it.

55
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, and what's this orange vest with the shiny stripes

56
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 2: for trick or treating.

57
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: Reflective vests help passing cars and vehicles see construction workers

58
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 1: and dark spaces to avoid accidents.

59
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 2: Uh what was that?

60
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 1: Sounds like some of the workers are going to lunch.

61
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: Maybe now we can get closer to the construction site

62
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 1: without being in the way.

63
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 2: Unch. Hey, fellas, save me something. Hey, check out the

64
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 2: cool yellow tape everywhere.

65
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 1: Yep? Can you read what it says?

66
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 2: Yes? Caution right, that's.

67
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: To remind you to watch your step. Okay, let's do

68
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: a safety check. Hard hats, got them vests?

69
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 2: Yep?

70
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: All right? Then let's go inside.

71
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 2: Wow, a real life construction site. Check out all of

72
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 2: the gear. Big piles of wood, gigantic stacks of bricks,

73
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 2: huge metal pipes. This place has got everything.

74
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 1: Construction workers have to move a lot of materials to

75
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 1: put together a building like this. That's why they need

76
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 1: machines like this big crane.

77
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 2: The crane looks like a giraffe.

78
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 1: Fuck it does a little. There are lots of different

79
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,599
Speaker 1: looking machines and each does a different job.

80
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 2: What's the sound that crane's making? Do you think something's wrong?

81
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 2: On Eily, Should we go?

82
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: It's okay Inston, it's just getting ready to work. Cranes

83
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,599
Speaker 1: lift heavy materials high up into the tall parts of

84
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 1: the buildings.

85
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 2: Oh right, and now it's saying all right, everyone, bricks

86
00:04:58,120 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 2: in coming exactly.

87
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 1: It's letting the workers know that it's ready to deliver

88
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 1: its payload. Okay, I've got an idea. Let's play. I spy.

89
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 2: I love this game.

90
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 1: Okay, good. I spy with my little eye something big,

91
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 1: yellow and with teeth.

92
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 2: Oh the bulldozer. The shovel is teeth so it can

93
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 2: scoop up dirt.

94
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: Good job, Whinson.

95
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,159
Speaker 2: My turn. I spy with my little eyes something big

96
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,479
Speaker 2: and blue. Oh and spinning.

97
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: Oh h is it the cement mixer?

98
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, you got it.

99
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 1: The cement mixer is one of my favorites. Workers pour water,

100
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,119
Speaker 1: sand and gravel into the big tank on the back.

101
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 1: It mixes all the ingredients up to make cement.

102
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 2: Oh neat. It's kind of like a cookie mixer. Now

103
00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 2: I want cookies. Sounds like the lunch breaks.

104
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 1: Over time to get to work. Tool belts on everybody.

105
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,280
Speaker 2: Tool belts are great for staying organized, right Emily.

106
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: Good point Winston. They keep your most important tools within

107
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 1: arms reached.

108
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 2: Like the hammer I use for knocking nails into wood.

109
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:21,159
Speaker 1: Yes, And screwdrivers for twisting, and screws nice and tight.

110
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 2: And saws to cut through wood and metal.

111
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 1: Yes, but let's leave that to the pros.

112
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 2: Good point, Emily, that saw could be sharp.

113
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 1: That's right, Winston. Tools are very sharp. They're definitely not toys.

114
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 2: Huh. I bet construction workers have to practice a lot.

115
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: They sure do. A lot of them go to school

116
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,359
Speaker 1: to learn about how to build things the right way,

117
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 1: and those who work really hard become experts. What kind

118
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 1: of expert, well, Winston. Some construction workers specialize in plumbing

119
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: so that we can all have clean running water. Others

120
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,479
Speaker 1: choose to become electrician. They are the people that set

121
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: up wires and lights in our house.

122
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 2: Wow. I never knew construction workers did so many jobs. Hey, Emily,

123
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 2: I have another joke for you.

124
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 1: No, really, Okay, let's hear it.

125
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 2: What is a construction worker's favorite kind of music? Hmmm?

126
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: I don't know what is it?

127
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 2: Heavy metal? Get it? Heavy metal?

128
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,559
Speaker 1: Very clever, Winston, very clever.

129
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 2: You know, without construction workers, we wouldn't have anywhere to live, right, Emily.

130
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: That's true. Winston. In fact, I have a pretty awesome

131
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: story about that. Yeah, years ago, there was a huge,

132
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 1: nasty hurricane that swept through the city of New Orleans.

133
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: It was really windy and it rained so so so

134
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: much that half the city flooded and many people's house

135
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: were destroyed.

136
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 2: Oh no, that's awful.

137
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: It really was. After the storm ended, hundreds of people

138
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: came home only to realize that all of their homes

139
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 1: and schools had been completely washed away. But luckily, a

140
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 1: lot of construction workers came together and decided to do

141
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: something about it.

142
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 2: Well what they do, emily, Well.

143
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 1: They've raised enough money to build hundreds of new homes

144
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 1: for the people who had nowhere to live.

145
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 2: Really, that's amazing, it sure is.

146
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 1: But it took a lot of hard work. And you

147
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 1: want to know, one of the craziest things about it

148
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: all what many of the workers were just regular people

149
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,599
Speaker 1: who wanted to help teachers and doctors, grocery store employees,

150
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: not just construction workers.

151
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 2: That is so awesome. I want to be helpful just

152
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 2: like that.

153
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: That's a spirit Winston. Hey, speaking of helping out, why

154
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 1: don't I give you a hand with that doghouse?

155
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 2: Awesome? Snap us back to the lab please, Emily.

156
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,559
Speaker 1: Hey Vincent, thanks for coming along anytime.

157
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 2: Emily.

158
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: We had a lot of fun learning about construction workers,

159
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 1: didn't we.

160
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 2: We sure did well.

161
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:21,840
