Conversation
Addison
Add: Can you believe Steve?
And: What are you referring to?

Add: How whipped he is.

And: Oh I know. It’s absurd. I don’t know why he does it. He let’s Clare control everything in his life. She treats him like dirt and he let’s her get away with it. He’s let all his girlfriends treat him like that.

Add: A lot of guys do that it’s just pathetic when it’s one of your best friends.

And: Do you think we should step in and say something?

Add: Well, we are best friends but I’m not really sure it’s our place to say something. Confronting someone about his girlfriend is pretty touchy

And: Ya I know, but as you said, we are best friends, if it’s not our place than whose is it?

Add: Good point. I guess we’ve gotta do what we’ve gotta do.

Key vocabulary and phrases that are discussed in the podcast:
Can you believe Steve? – This question is NOT asking whether or not you think someone is telling the truth. This is just saying that Steve is really acting strange. If you want to know if Steve is a liar, you would ask “Do you believe Steve?” or “Can you trust Steve?”

Whipped – A common way to describe a guy who let’s his girlfriend control him and he listens to everything she says and does everything she wants. He’s so whipped.

Absurd – Really strange, ridiculous, or crazy

treats him like dirt – a common phrase describing someone treating someone else really badly.

step in – Step in and do something, or step in and say something. An expression that is often used to describe a situation where you are trying to help in a situation where its not really about you. For example, you could “step in to stop a fight between two strangers”.

our place – “Your place” to do something means something that is your business or its ok for you to do something. For example, if someone else’s kid was acting rude in front of their parents, its Not your place to yell at the kid. It would be your place if it was your own kid. Another example is if someone whom you didn’t know very well was spending a lot of money on clothes, its Not your place to tell them you think they are wasting their money.

Touchy – A very sensitive topic. If you know that someone might easily feel emotional about some topic, then you can say “it’s touchy” or “it’s a touchy issue”.

I guess we’ve gotta do what we’ve gotta do. – A common expression describing a situation where you don’t want to do something or its not easy to do something, but you know you have to. It’s the same meaning as “even though it’s difficult, we still have to do it”.
