R: Life would be over. Life would not be worth living.
M: Can you imagine, dear listener? Have you ever been to a place without the internet? When your phone is like a brick, like, you can't do anything with your phone. But now, you know, people have started creating these places without any connection, like for travellers, for people to relax. And actually, more and more people are seeking these places without any connection. Could we say they are internet-free zones?
R: Yes. An internet-free existence.
M: People are looking for an internet-free existence. Dear listener, is it about you? No?
R: Please don't make it about you, because you need to listen to this podcast.
M: A very nice phrase, life would be turned completely upside down. Okay? When you turn it upside down. So if I take you, dear listener, your body, and I put your head on the floor and your feet up, I would turn you upside down. So without the internet, my life would be turned completely upside down.
R: It would not be normal.
M: I would be pretty isolated. Okay? Alone. Isolated from everybody, like on a desert island. And we use would, I would be, it would be difficult, because we are imagining, because now, like, hopefully, you have the internet. Right? Like most people... Do most people on this planet have the internet, Rory?
R: I think so.
M: I think so. Yeah. Okay.
R: Well, we can, we can find this out. How many people... Oh, wow. Maybe not everybody.
M: No? But most, I said like most people.
R: 5.45 billion internet users worldwide, according to Google, which is 67.1% of the global population.
M: Okay. Okay, so more than a half.
R: That's crazy. I thought it was more than 67% though. It should be like, I mean, why do these other people don't have internet access? That's crazy.
M: No, but like people live in the villages, so maybe they just don't need the internet. Okay?
R: Oh, if I lived in a village, I would definitely need the internet. No offence to village-dwelling people.
M: Oh, okay, dear listener, so just remember that the human mind is like Internet Explorer. There are at least nine tabs open, three of them are frozen, and there is no clue where the music is coming from. Did you get that? Did you get the joke?
R: I didn't get that at all because I don't use Internet Explorer.
M: No. But like if you use... What is Internet Explorer? What is it?
R: It's a web browser.
M: Yeah. If, for example, the human mind is like Google, there are at least 20 tabs open, or maybe like 50 tabs open, like half of them are frozen. They're loading, and there is no clue where the music is coming from, so there's some ad running. And it's kind of like the music is coming from somewhere. So the joke is that here we are comparing the human mind to Google or Internet Explorer, or, I don't know, Yahoo, like whatever search engine you are using. Hahahaha, very funny.
R: It is hilarious. Um, moving swiftly on.
M: Thank you very much for listening, dear listener. That's all from us.
R: Bye!
M: Bye!
