0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:05.920
<v Speaker 2>This is the Flex and Frooms catch up podcast.

0:00:08.840 --> 0:00:11.960
<v Speaker 3>Hey, sweety pies, it's flex and fruit flex and frooms.

0:00:12.560 --> 0:00:14.800
<v Speaker 1>Do you know the other day I noticed this thing that.

0:00:16.239 --> 0:00:17.520
<v Speaker 3>I don't want to call it tick, but I don't

0:00:17.560 --> 0:00:19.319
<v Speaker 3>have the other I don't know another word for it.

0:00:19.320 --> 0:00:23.360
<v Speaker 3>Maybe you can tell me potentially that my best friend does.

0:00:23.640 --> 0:00:25.880
<v Speaker 3>So if I'm hanging out with her with if I'm

0:00:25.920 --> 0:00:28.760
<v Speaker 3>hanging out with my best friend with other people, we

0:00:28.800 --> 0:00:30.800
<v Speaker 3>do a twin thing a lot. We spend a lot

0:00:30.800 --> 0:00:33.720
<v Speaker 3>of time together, so we speak really similarly. We have

0:00:33.800 --> 0:00:36.680
<v Speaker 3>really similar ideas about the world. But this new thing

0:00:36.720 --> 0:00:39.680
<v Speaker 3>that's popped up with her is if I say something

0:00:40.479 --> 0:00:43.600
<v Speaker 3>in order to like to verbally show that she's agreeing

0:00:43.600 --> 0:00:45.680
<v Speaker 3>with me, she'll repeat exactly what I said.

0:00:45.720 --> 0:00:49.839
<v Speaker 1>But louder, let's practice. Tell me how your day was

0:00:49.880 --> 0:00:50.159

<v Speaker 4>It is, like, it's not annoying, but it's I kind

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:42.200
<v Speaker 4>of prefer podcasts where like you'll say yeah, and I'll

0:01:42.200 --> 0:01:42.679
<v Speaker 4>say yeah.

0:01:42.720 --> 0:01:43.760
<v Speaker 1>It's kind of nicer.

0:01:43.520 --> 0:01:46.880
<v Speaker 4>When I don't repeat what you're saying and vice versa.

<v Speaker 1>Just a little a.

0:01:48.800 --> 0:01:52.200

0:01:55.080 --> 0:01:55.720
<v Speaker 3>of hits different.

0:01:55.920 --> 0:01:58.040
<v Speaker 4>No, enough enough, let's get into it.

0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:03.000
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to flex and forums. I'm Keita Flexie.

0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:04.560
<v Speaker 4>It's time that I taught you a lesson for once

0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:05.040
<v Speaker 4>and for all.

0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:05.600
<v Speaker 1>Thank you.

0:02:05.640 --> 0:02:07.800
<v Speaker 4>I came across this TikTok, which is about the origin

0:02:07.840 --> 0:02:11.519
<v Speaker 4>of human language. Please produce a Brookie play the record.

0:02:11.480 --> 0:02:14.880
<v Speaker 2>But just words, just words like how do we collectively

0:02:14.880 --> 0:02:17.119
<v Speaker 2>decide that this is a ball? So if you want

0:02:17.120 --> 0:02:20.280
<v Speaker 2>a specific answer, the reason why we call these bottles

0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:24.240
<v Speaker 2>is because the Indo Europeans, an ancient ethnic group that

0:02:24.360 --> 0:02:27.799
<v Speaker 2>spoke an ancestor of English, decided that the roots sound

0:02:27.840 --> 0:02:31.000
<v Speaker 2>behech what was the best way to describe the concepts

0:02:31.040 --> 0:02:35.200
<v Speaker 2>of a container for liquids? But if you're asking how

0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:38.600
<v Speaker 2>early humans collectively decided that certain concepts should be described

0:02:38.680 --> 0:02:40.560
<v Speaker 2>with certain sounds, then we're going to have to dive

0:02:40.600 --> 0:02:44.320
<v Speaker 2>into the more speculative theories regarding the origins of human language.

0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:46.480
<v Speaker 2>Now keep in mind this is well outside of my

0:02:46.560 --> 0:02:50.480
<v Speaker 2>expertise as a historicalphologist. I study old languages, but not

0:02:50.680 --> 0:02:54.359
<v Speaker 2>eighty thousand years old. I call these theories because we'll

0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:57.400
<v Speaker 2>never know for sure. The origins of human language is

0:02:57.440 --> 0:03:01.960
<v Speaker 2>still a very abstract field for us linguists. But my

0:03:02.400 --> 0:03:04.960
<v Speaker 2>personal theory, which you should take with a grain of salt,

0:03:05.200 --> 0:03:07.720
<v Speaker 2>is a rather simple one. And then it just sort

0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:10.679
<v Speaker 2>of happened, much in the same way that a new

0:03:10.800 --> 0:03:13.040
<v Speaker 2>slang comes about every now and then over the years.

0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:16.400
<v Speaker 2>Like we look at this picture of hairless rats. All right,

0:03:16.440 --> 0:03:18.680
<v Speaker 2>this is literally me, we look at this rat and

0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:22.320
<v Speaker 2>we think, oh, yeah, that's scrungly does not have any

0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:26.000
<v Speaker 2>sort of old English etymology. It just appeared out of nowhere,

0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:28.600
<v Speaker 2>and that's where I think the majority of words came from.

0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:31.280
<v Speaker 2>It really was just a simple matter of yeah, this

0:03:31.360 --> 0:03:36.800
<v Speaker 2>is a this a tree. Yeah. I mean, let's not

0:03:36.920 --> 0:03:40.760
<v Speaker 2>underestimate the intelligence of these early humans. They had just

0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:43.920
<v Speaker 2>as much capacity for language as we do today, so

0:03:44.200 --> 0:03:46.840
<v Speaker 2>they were probably coming up with numerous slang terms to

0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:49.360
<v Speaker 2>describe a whole bunch of different concepts, just like we

0:03:49.440 --> 0:03:49.920
<v Speaker 2>do today.

0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:54.040
<v Speaker 3>I have my file fla distry that whole time I

0:03:54.120 --> 0:03:56.720
<v Speaker 3>can't explain to you, like it started off with a

0:03:56.800 --> 0:03:58.880
<v Speaker 3>freemy accent I think that was Scottish, and then it

0:03:58.960 --> 0:04:02.680
<v Speaker 3>dved out into like this ironic kind of like mean,

0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:04.280
<v Speaker 3>do you know what it reminded me of. I went

0:04:04.320 --> 0:04:06.800
<v Speaker 3>to this ration on in Melbourne once Quick Caveat and

0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:10.320
<v Speaker 3>this waiter we couldn't figure out if he was just

0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:13.000
<v Speaker 3>like the worst person in the world, like rude and

0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:15.640
<v Speaker 3>over arrogant, or he was like really kind and charming.

0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:19.320
<v Speaker 3>And it was the most like discombobulating experience because we

0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:20.479
<v Speaker 3>were on edge the whole time.

0:04:20.480 --> 0:04:22.200
<v Speaker 1>And he knew it. He knew it.

0:04:22.560 --> 0:04:24.719
<v Speaker 3>It's good to know where it's just like happened from anywhere,

0:04:24.760 --> 0:04:26.720
<v Speaker 3>and I would like to know. I mean, I'm a

0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:28.840
<v Speaker 3>big fan of making up my words and introducing ones

0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:31.520
<v Speaker 3>that feel good. And I think we should do that more,

0:04:33.120 --> 0:04:35.240
<v Speaker 3>because like we can, you can submit a word to

0:04:35.240 --> 0:04:36.239
<v Speaker 3>the dictionary, right.

0:04:36.600 --> 0:04:39.080
<v Speaker 4>Maybe I've never done it? Have you done it? Brookie?

0:04:39.440 --> 0:04:41.400
<v Speaker 1>I think we need to submit flex and frioms.

0:04:41.760 --> 0:04:45.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, well let's let's let's I mean, flex is a word.

0:04:45.640 --> 0:04:47.920
<v Speaker 1>Flex is a word as well.

0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:50.560
<v Speaker 3>We should make up a word and add it to

0:04:50.600 --> 0:04:52.520
<v Speaker 3>our lexic kind of use it frequently enough.

0:04:52.640 --> 0:04:53.400
<v Speaker 4>You know how to do that?

0:04:54.120 --> 0:04:55.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, make up words all the time.

0:04:55.600 --> 0:05:00.880
<v Speaker 4>It's sim language schnegeldorp, yeah, schnegel d'Or it's a feeling.

0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:03.360
<v Speaker 3>Make a bird word the other day, no, the other

<v Speaker 3>like last year? What do we call like the X

<v Speaker 4>barn TM this immediately, I do not for.

0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:38.240
<v Speaker 1>Free katas, flex and frooms, Flex and frooms.

0:05:38.400 --> 0:05:41.279
<v Speaker 3>Turns out, age does in fact matter, and thirty is

0:05:41.400 --> 0:05:44.120
<v Speaker 3>too old to go clubbing, well, at least in most

0:05:44.160 --> 0:05:44.839
<v Speaker 3>parts of Korea.

0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Listened to this. Bye, we just went to get into

0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:59.480
<v Speaker 1>a pub in Korea and the Islamic nine thirty, next forty?

0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:00.760
<v Speaker 1>What a file?

0:06:01.880 --> 0:06:03.359
<v Speaker 4>Thirty thirty?

0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:05.160
<v Speaker 1>We're too old to.

0:06:05.200 --> 0:06:08.200
<v Speaker 2>Be in the club, I'd like translator, I went like this,

0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:13.800
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, like this.

0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:16.600
<v Speaker 1>In case that was too hard for you to discern.

0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:20.960
<v Speaker 3>Basically, these group of people try to go clubbing in Korea.

0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:24.560
<v Speaker 3>When they get to the door, the door persons using

0:06:24.600 --> 0:06:27.640
<v Speaker 3>Google Translate to gest to them that they are too old,

0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:30.160
<v Speaker 3>and then so they go around and like, okay, well

0:06:30.200 --> 0:06:32.039
<v Speaker 3>the youngest person in our group is thirty and the

0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:34.600
<v Speaker 3>oldest person is forty, and granted they look like young, cool,

0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:39.279
<v Speaker 3>fun their influencers, et cetera. But it's just too old

0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:42.279
<v Speaker 3>for that club. And the age range is eighteen to

0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:45.240
<v Speaker 3>twenty nine. So I'm thinking it's this like a widespread thing.

0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:48.599
<v Speaker 3>Can you not go clubbing in Korea? Are we missing something?

0:06:48.920 --> 0:06:51.200
<v Speaker 3>And so after some research, what I found out is

0:06:51.200 --> 0:06:55.920
<v Speaker 3>that there's this district called home Day Hong Day, someone

0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:58.560
<v Speaker 3>will correct me, and it's more strict on its age

0:06:58.600 --> 0:07:02.560
<v Speaker 3>because's the college town. But other neighborhoods are more open

0:07:02.640 --> 0:07:05.200
<v Speaker 3>to older people. Now more open does not feel like

0:07:05.440 --> 0:07:08.440
<v Speaker 3>old people inclusive. That feels like you might get away

0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:11.080
<v Speaker 3>with it if you're extra hot, but not for the regular.

0:07:11.440 --> 0:07:14.480
<v Speaker 3>Someone was also saying that actually, now they think about it,

0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:17.080
<v Speaker 3>all clubs should have twenty to twenty nine year old policies.

0:07:17.120 --> 0:07:18.640
<v Speaker 3>You know, when you're too old to go and you're

0:07:18.640 --> 0:07:21.040
<v Speaker 3>opted out, and people like it, Actually is a good

0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:25.040
<v Speaker 3>idea to make thirty and older clubs because I will say,

0:07:25.120 --> 0:07:27.800
<v Speaker 3>you know, I lost my best clubbing years to being

0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:30.640
<v Speaker 3>a DJ. People think it's fun, it's actually quite lonely.

0:07:31.040 --> 0:07:32.760
<v Speaker 3>You're the center of the party, but you're not part

0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:34.960
<v Speaker 3>of the party at all. And so now I'm like

0:07:34.960 --> 0:07:38.000
<v Speaker 3>got my second wind. I don't feel too old to

0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:40.920
<v Speaker 3>go clubbing. But knowing that there are eighteen nineteen twenty

0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:42.840
<v Speaker 3>year olds in there and I'm like about to be

0:07:42.880 --> 0:07:46.080
<v Speaker 3>twenty nine, I'm thinking, should we really be engaging in

0:07:46.120 --> 0:07:48.000
<v Speaker 3>close quarters like this is a little different.

0:07:48.040 --> 0:07:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Probably not.

0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:52.320
<v Speaker 4>I was planning on going to South Korea on holiday.

0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:57.200
<v Speaker 3>I love the emphasis on South Korea.

0:07:57.520 --> 0:08:01.560
<v Speaker 4>I'd been once before and I'd been clubbing there and

0:08:01.640 --> 0:08:04.200
<v Speaker 4>it was it wasn't that young, I swear though. I

0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:05.680
<v Speaker 4>got photos with men that were.

0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:07.680
<v Speaker 1>Like forty photos.

0:08:07.920 --> 0:08:11.720
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, like like making memories, Yeah, making memories, making memories.

0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:16.160
<v Speaker 4>South Korea is a vibe if you like going out.

0:08:16.480 --> 0:08:20.680
<v Speaker 4>Like that alcohol that they drink, that al cahol that

0:08:20.720 --> 0:08:26.120
<v Speaker 4>I drank was like table cleaner and it was so

0:08:26.160 --> 0:08:30.200
<v Speaker 4>strong it was bleach. It was pretty much. And so

0:08:30.320 --> 0:08:31.960
<v Speaker 4>that's such a shame because I wanted to go there

0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:33.120
<v Speaker 4>for the party atmosphere.

0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:34.840
<v Speaker 1>You've still got another year in you.

0:08:35.320 --> 0:08:37.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, But I mean, as we know, I'm either twenty

0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:41.520
<v Speaker 4>or sixty, So I can't my ego can't handle the

0:08:41.559 --> 0:08:43.520
<v Speaker 4>rejection of not getting into a club in South Korea

0:08:43.880 --> 0:08:48.040
<v Speaker 4>and I've traveled from X amount of hours. Do I

0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:51.079
<v Speaker 4>think that there should be age limits in clubs? I mean,

0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:54.680
<v Speaker 4>I just hope that Like in Melbourne, there's definitely venues

0:08:54.720 --> 0:08:57.120
<v Speaker 4>you go to where you know the Asias. In Sydney

0:08:57.800 --> 0:08:59.880
<v Speaker 4>there is no such thing. We don't have the luxuries

0:09:00.280 --> 0:09:03.240
<v Speaker 4>of particular clubs that are particular ages. So if you

0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:05.320
<v Speaker 4>are a fan of clubbing, you know what I say,

0:09:05.400 --> 0:09:06.280
<v Speaker 4>go down to Melbourne.

0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:13.719
<v Speaker 3>Simple as that you're not blinking again. For me, it's

0:09:14.160 --> 0:09:16.440
<v Speaker 3>not like rocking back and forth and not blinking.

0:09:16.440 --> 0:09:18.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying, what's gone. I'm a bit triggered by this

0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:19.480
<v Speaker 1>story out. It's a cry for help.

0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:22.640
<v Speaker 3>Look, I think I agree. I feel like I think

0:09:22.679 --> 0:09:25.520
<v Speaker 3>it's fair. It's a college district. It's nice to hang

0:09:25.520 --> 0:09:27.480
<v Speaker 3>out with your age mates and have a good time,

0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:30.400
<v Speaker 3>because there are very few things worse than like when

0:09:30.400 --> 0:09:32.840
<v Speaker 3>you're in a clubbing environment having like an amazing time

0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:35.000
<v Speaker 3>and somebody older and jaded is like, oh my goodness,

0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:36.599
<v Speaker 3>is like why are you doing that? Why are you

0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:38.920
<v Speaker 3>standing around? Why are you like yelling whiney or whatever,

0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:41.120
<v Speaker 3>And it's like we're young and loose, babe, Like this

0:09:41.160 --> 0:09:43.839
<v Speaker 3>is how we operate. Yes, I'm gonna take my shoes

0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:46.280
<v Speaker 3>off and climb on the table and the sink, and

0:09:46.679 --> 0:09:48.240
<v Speaker 3>you young people should be able to do that with

0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:52.880
<v Speaker 3>this the scrutiny of an older person being like and

0:09:52.920 --> 0:09:55.559
<v Speaker 3>even the novelty like I feel like some clubs for

0:09:55.720 --> 0:09:58.640
<v Speaker 3>like an older demographic miss out on novelty. That's actually

0:09:58.720 --> 0:10:03.000
<v Speaker 3>quite fun the jugs, like the fun little cocktails and

0:10:03.080 --> 0:10:05.760
<v Speaker 3>like do a little Have you seen that shot where

0:10:06.160 --> 0:10:07.520
<v Speaker 3>you take it and they like grab your head and

0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:08.240
<v Speaker 3>they shake it.

0:10:09.520 --> 0:10:12.520
<v Speaker 1>No funny, it's funny, but you can see shots.

0:10:12.720 --> 0:10:15.400
<v Speaker 3>Sure, whatever it might be, I will say that I

0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:19.640
<v Speaker 3>think we should start bringing in thirty plus clubs. I

0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:22.000
<v Speaker 3>think it's a really safe thing to do. There's no

0:10:22.160 --> 0:10:24.720
<v Speaker 3>need for thirty plus people to be interacting with eighteen

0:10:24.800 --> 0:10:30.240
<v Speaker 3>year olds, and clubbing is saturated by eighteen year olds,

0:10:30.360 --> 0:10:33.760
<v Speaker 3>nineteen year olds, twenty year olds, and you can't just

0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:36.280
<v Speaker 3>tell how someone is by just looking at them, so

0:10:36.440 --> 0:10:38.480
<v Speaker 3>separate and segregate fact.

0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:41.880

0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:43.559
