はい、こんにちは。今日はポッドキャストの22回目です。すっかり暖かくなりました。日差しが強いので、外に出る時は日焼け止めをつけています。スウェットを着て寝ると少し暑いですが、Tシャツだとまだ寒く感じるので、夜は何を着るか迷います。毎日の飲み物も、温かいものより、冷たいものを飲むようになってきました。

Hi, this is podcast episode 22. It's all warmed up. The sun is shining, so I wear sunscreen when I go outside. It's a bit hot when I sleep in a sweatshirt, but it still feels cold in a T-shirt, so I'm not sure what to wear at night. I also have started to drink cold drinks every day instead of hot ones.

暖かくなると、出かけたくなりますね。今日は午前中のレッスンで、海の話をしました。子供の頃は、どの国の人もよく海に行きます。海の近くに家や別荘がある人もいますし、国内や海外のビーチに旅行に行く人もいます。「別荘」とは、休みの間だけ利用する家です。私も子供のとき、よく海に行きました。東京の近くの海はあまり綺麗ではないので、そのときは海があまり好きではありませんでした。浅瀬にはクラゲがたくさんいて、よく刺されました。「浅瀬」とは、海の浅い部分です。その後、いろいろな国のビーチに行きました。バリ島の海は青くて、水が透明で、とてもきれいでした。シドニーのボンダイビーチは、人が多くて賑やかでした。ロサンゼルスのサンタモニカビーチは、空がピンク色で驚きました。

The warmer the weather, the more you want to go out. Today, in the morning lesson, we talked about the sea. As children, people from all countries often go to the sea. Some people have houses or Bessou near the sea, while others go on trips to national or international beaches. A 'Bessou (holiday home)' is a house that is only used during holidays. When I was a child, I used to go to the sea a lot. I didn't like the sea then because the sea near Tokyo is not very clean. There were many jellyfish in Asase and I was often stung. 'Asase (shallows)' are shallow parts of the sea. I then went to beaches in different countries. The sea in Bali was blue and the water was clear. Bondi Beach in Sydney was crowded and busy. Santa Monica Beach in Los Angeles was amazing because the sky was pink.

海は国や地域によって全然印象が違うので、面白いですね。レッスンでも、ときどき生徒さんが、旅行に行ったビーチの写真を見せてくれます。どの海も特徴的です。日本で一番有名なビーチリゾートは、沖縄です。ダイビングをする人に人気があります。沖縄は日本の一番南で、台湾の近くにある島です。私はいつか、南米と南ヨーロッパのビーチに行ってみたいです。海以外にも、活火山とか、氷山とか、普段は見られない自然の景色を見てみたいですが、そこまで行くのが大変そうですね。「活火山」とは、１万年以内に噴火をしたことがあって、現在も煙が出ている火山のことです。「氷山」は北極や南極にある大きな氷の塊のことです。

Master the Art of Conversation: Active Listening Best Practices
In today's fast-paced world, truly being heard can feel like a luxury. Active listening, however, goes beyond simply hearing words. It's a powerful communication skill that fosters deeper understanding, builds trust, and strengthens relationships. Here are some best practices to elevate your active listening game:

Be Present: Put away distractions like phones and silence internal chatter. Focus solely on the speaker, conveying attentiveness through eye contact and open body language.

Listen Verbally and Nonverbally: Pay attention not just to words, but also to tone of voice, facial expressions, and body language. These nonverbal cues can reveal underlying emotions or unspoken concerns.

Embrace Silence: Don't feel pressured to fill every pause. Comfortable silence allows the speaker to gather their thoughts and express themselves fully.

Ask Clarifying Questions: Don't assume you understand everything. Use open-ended questions to encourage elaboration and ensure you're on the same page.

Paraphrase and Summarize: Reflect back key points in your own words to confirm comprehension and demonstrate attentiveness. This also helps identify any misunderstandings early on.

Acknowledge Emotions: Validate the speaker's feelings with empathy. Show you understand their perspective, even if you don't agree.

Minimize Interruptions: Allow the speaker to finish their thoughts before responding. Interrupting hinders their flow and can come across as dismissive.

By incorporating these practices, you become a more engaged and supportive listener. This strengthens relationships in all areas of life, from building trust with clients to fostering deeper connections with loved ones. Remember, active listening is a continuous journey. With practice, you'll become a master of communication, fostering a world where everyone feels heard and understood.

SWE 131 My Top Pet Peeves

A toxic workplace is one of the biggest reasons why people leave their jobs.

It might be a place where staff are stressed, managers bully their employees and people don't trust each other.

"Toxic" usually means something that's poisonous, but we can also use it to mean "very unpleasant." The word is often used to describe a workplace that's so bad it's almost poisonous.

If you work in a toxic place, you'll probably know about it. But how can you tell if a workplace is toxic before you even start a new job?

Career coach Beata Staszkow says the way the manager treats you during the interview might give you an idea about how they'll treat you as an employee.

Look out for bosses who don't seem interested in your answers, she adds, or those who make inappropriate jokes.

A manager showing up late for an interview could also be a bad sign, says jobs expert Mita Mallick, writing in Harvard Business Review.

Mallick says to also watch out for things like the interviewer changing the job description after you've started discussing the job, or putting pressure on you to take the job right away.

It's also good to do some research into how many employees are leaving a company and how many new ones are joining. This is known as "employee turnover."

Sometimes there are good reasons for turnover. But it could be a sign of a toxic workplace. You should be able to find out about it by looking on sites like LinkedIn — and you might also be able to contact someone who used to work at the company.

If you're already in a toxic workplace, you'll probably want to get out of it. But you don't want to jump from one toxic workplace into another!

How to Find Out if a Workplace Is 'Toxic'

I came across a podcast about an 80 year old man sharing a valuable life lesson. This life lesson is the same lesson that I learned over the last few years. I hope that this podcast will give insights about business and entrepreneurship to those who want to try it out.

EL MERCADO DE LA GRAN TENOCHTITÁN.

El Mercado de la  “Gran Tenochtitlán”, era el lugar donde se reunían las cosas, almacenando alimentos, animales, objetos y una gran diversidad de productos. Este  centro comercial prehispánico estuvo ubicado en Tlatelolco, ciudad fundada en 1338 por los tlatelolcas, tribu mexica que se separó de los tenochcas, fundadores de Tenochtitlan y estaba situada en un islote al norte de esta ciudad dentro del lago de Texcoco. Su tianguis era el corazón de un hormiguero multiétnico, un centro de reunión e intercambio cultural al que comerciantes -conocidos como pochtecas- provenientes de toda la geografía mesoamericana e individuos, especializados en el comercio a larga distancia entre las distintas regiones que integraban el imperio mexica, e incluso más allá de sus fronteras, acudían a vender sus mercancías, así como a comunicar noticias recogidas durante sus largos trayectos. Esto incluía la información militar, ya que frecuentemente los comerciantes desempeñaban las funciones de embajadores, emisarios e incluso espías, que describían los ricos territorios que fueran propicios para futuras guerras de conquista. El gran tianguis de Tlatelolco se ubicaba al suroeste del área que conocemos como el Templo Mayor de la ciudad; operaba en un gran espacio al aire libre donde se reunían compradores y vendedores; habían alrededor numerosas habitaciones que eran utilizadas como bodegas y depósitos, siendo considerado el modelo prototipo de mercado en Mesoamérica. Su fama deriva de la gran impresión que dejó en los conquistadores españoles, quienes le consignaron en sus crónicas. Cuando los españoles llegaron a la cuenca del Valle de México en 1520, Tlatelolco era el eje del comercio y la economía en el Anáhuac por encontrarse en los linderos de la ciudad de México-Tenochtitlán.
