ESL Podcast 1169 – Being Talkative and Reserved 

Marcia: Phew! I thought they’d never leave. 

Artem: I enjoyed their company, didn’t you? 

Marcia: Jessie is fine, a little reserved and soft-spoken, and on the shy side. Kelly, on the other hand, talked our ear off. No one could get a word in edgewise with her. 

Artem: I thought Kelly’s anecdotes1 were funny. She was a little long-winded, I’ll admit, but I enjoyed talking to her more than trying to make conversation with Jessie. She is so close-mouthed and guarded that it was like pulling teeth. 

Marcia: I’d rather talk to someone who is a little reticent2 than a loudmouth. 

Artem: Ooh, that’s a little harsh. 

Marcia: Maybe you’re right, but I don’t like the blathering, gossipy type. 

Artem: I wonder… 

Marcia: What? 

Artem: I wonder what they’re saying about us. 

Script by Dr. Lucy Tse
