Cześć, cześć. Hey!

00:00:36.217 --> 00:00:41.837
It's coming to Halloween. It's not a holiday, but it's coming to me.

00:00:41.837 --> 00:00:43.177
It's coming to me and in Poland.

00:00:44.177 --> 00:00:48.837
Some people are also taking it. Some people, because they are especially young

00:00:48.837 --> 00:00:51.837
people. They are rather stars... No, no, no.

00:00:52.277 --> 00:00:57.017
I wanted to talk about Halloween in Poland. Because we still have a holiday. Halloween.

00:00:58.617 --> 00:01:02.937
It's not a Polish tradition, but it's not an actual tradition.

00:01:03.157 --> 00:01:06.577
It's an actual tradition. It's an actual tradition, and it's an actual tradition.

00:01:06.617 --> 00:01:10.597
So, Roy, tell me, what do you know about Halloween?

00:01:11.357 --> 00:01:15.977
Because I honestly tell you, I'm just telling you, I'm just telling you,

00:01:16.077 --> 00:01:18.457
that I'm just telling you about Halloween, I don't know about it.

00:01:18.797 --> 00:01:21.117
Because, like I said, it's not a popular holiday in Poland.

00:01:21.497 --> 00:01:28.177
It's not a popular holiday in Poland. I don't know. But I know everything I know, I know.

00:01:28.577 --> 00:01:34.177
I know, I know, I know, I know, that there are dynies, and all of them are in the color.

00:01:34.777 --> 00:01:36.977
In sum, it's all. What is Halloween?

00:01:38.889 --> 00:01:44.749
I've been living here for 18 years and when I was first, I was very small.

00:01:45.049 --> 00:01:47.809
It's always old-fashioned.

00:01:49.089 --> 00:01:54.189
There are a lot of candles in the sky. In the sky.

00:01:54.989 --> 00:02:01.769
Yes, but for people who have advertising from Halloween, there are a lot of shops.

00:02:02.089 --> 00:02:05.289
Everything is Halloween. It's like the USA. It's like everything,

00:02:05.789 --> 00:02:13.649
but it's a real situation, because this pumpkin in Irlandia was the first.

00:02:13.969 --> 00:02:17.789
It was not a pumpkin, but it was a turnip.

00:02:17.989 --> 00:02:24.869
It was like a candle in the middle of the world.

00:02:25.409 --> 00:02:32.249
People sing and sing things. When there was a lot in the USA,

00:02:32.629 --> 00:02:35.349
there were not turnips. And that's why pumpkins.

00:02:35.769 --> 00:02:38.629
So, Irlandia organiza Halloween.

00:02:39.189 --> 00:02:44.409
You were in the USA, and now pumpkins return to Irlandia and to the whole world.

00:02:44.669 --> 00:02:49.349
So, they will organize you from Irlandia. Globalization.

00:02:51.089 --> 00:02:55.469
Everything is the same. Well, right. Is it good that everything is the same?

00:02:56.309 --> 00:03:00.689
I think it's not. Because when you read, it's pagan, right?

00:03:00.869 --> 00:03:08.549
It's pagan tradition, to be the Vikings and to be the first,

00:03:08.769 --> 00:03:11.589
I don't know. But it's all negative.

00:03:12.489 --> 00:03:14.149
Diablo. It's all.

00:03:15.149 --> 00:03:19.529
And the people think, oh, it's a joke. It's all.

00:03:20.889 --> 00:03:22.269
It's a lot of fun.

00:03:23.940 --> 00:03:30.320
It's going to be sold. But if it's going to be sold, then marketing and companies

00:03:30.320 --> 00:03:35.460
adapt to and do something that can be sold.

00:03:35.860 --> 00:03:41.060
Maybe a company doesn't say, that it's a pagan holiday, but it's going to be

00:03:41.060 --> 00:03:41.740
said, that they're going to sell it.

00:03:43.440 --> 00:03:49.760
So it's going to work. So it's not that it's a pagan holiday, but they can sell it.

00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:57.000
So it's like that. Halloween. A powiedz mi, czy ty kiedykolwiek świętowałeś

00:03:57.000 --> 00:03:58.220
Halloween w jakiś sposób?

00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:04.260
Kito, tak? Ty. Czy ty świętowałeś Halloween?

00:04:04.580 --> 00:04:11.860
Nie, ale my syn będzie na szkole chyba piątek, będzie na szkole i będzie spędzać

00:04:11.860 --> 00:04:14.380
noc w szkole na Halloween party.

00:04:15.320 --> 00:04:22.240
Aha. Ale ja nie mam nic w domu od Halloween. Nie masz nic w dyni, dobrze.

00:04:22.980 --> 00:04:29.100
So, okay, you mentioned that in Poland is more popular, so I think it is more

00:04:29.100 --> 00:04:33.200
popular, so I think it is more popular, so I think it is more popular,

00:04:33.200 --> 00:04:36.800
so I think it is a marketing,

00:04:37.380 --> 00:04:42.000
but what is it is, is it is a marketing, really, is it something that you can

00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:49.280
do, because people like it is, it is something that you like, or is it a day.

00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:56.080
Wszystkich Świętych, Z Dniem Zmarłych, osób, które nie żyją,

00:04:56.320 --> 00:05:01.600
czy w jakiś sposób ma to jakieś takie głębsze znaczenie, że to faktycznie,

00:05:02.443 --> 00:05:06.243
Okay, there are cookies, there are some events in home, in school, I don't know,

00:05:06.743 --> 00:05:14.543
but that is actually a kind of a gift, that is actually a death of the dead,

00:05:14.783 --> 00:05:20.303
that apart from the fun of the cookies, we actually remember those who don't live.

00:05:20.483 --> 00:05:30.483
Or rather it's just marketing and commercialization. I think it's a lot of sugar,

00:05:31.263 --> 00:05:37.243
sweets, because there is always a bread, or something, like,

00:05:37.403 --> 00:05:44.503
she has a lot of tea, and she eats everything, and it's not good, so much sugar, sugar.

00:05:45.163 --> 00:05:48.103
Aha, a no reduction, is it good?

00:05:48.983 --> 00:05:53.763
No, so it's just marketing. We have our Christmas in Poland,

00:05:53.783 --> 00:05:57.443
which we are going to be 1st September.

00:05:59.043 --> 00:06:03.523
It's a Polish Christmas, so it's not. Halloween? No, it wasn't.

00:06:03.903 --> 00:06:06.483
It just took place. We are going to be the same.

00:06:07.323 --> 00:06:09.543
So, so we are going to be the same.

00:06:11.963 --> 00:06:13.003
Okay, now...

00:06:14.146 --> 00:06:20.126
So, tell me, how did it change to Halloween in the past?

00:06:20.566 --> 00:06:24.206
Because when it was a little bit, a little bit, a little bit,

00:06:24.386 --> 00:06:26.706
a little bit, a little bit, a little bit, but it was not like that.

00:06:27.166 --> 00:06:33.326
How is it now? Because it evolved, it is evolution. At first it was a little bit, now it is a lot.

00:06:33.866 --> 00:06:38.626
And how do you see it? Is it evolved and is it even better?

00:06:39.466 --> 00:06:45.746
Or how do you accept it? No, because I tell you that things like Halloween are

00:06:45.746 --> 00:06:51.186
only in the city, because in Warsaw, Łódź, some of the most places,

00:06:51.706 --> 00:06:57.026
I tell you that, in the wsi, if you do this, it would be a place to meet you.

00:06:57.506 --> 00:07:02.466
In the wsi there is no such thing. How do you see this evolution Halloween in Poland?

00:07:03.721 --> 00:07:13.841
It's like, you said it's a big city and there's also a lot of lamps on the window and in the middle,

00:07:14.341 --> 00:07:19.601
and there's also a lot of children from home to home, and so people are there.

00:07:19.601 --> 00:07:25.301
And in Polish, these kids say, sugar or psicos. Right?

00:07:26.081 --> 00:07:33.541
Sugar or psicos. Tell me, did you get to your door children and told you sugar or psicos?

00:07:34.021 --> 00:07:40.141
No, but Ireland is very popular. When I was young, my mom always gave everything to them.

00:07:40.501 --> 00:07:46.461
Everything is like in the night, maybe 50 people to your home or so.

00:07:47.081 --> 00:07:48.641
Mhm. Tak.

00:07:49.281 --> 00:07:54.001
Aha. Dobra. No, ja tutaj też nie miałam takiej sytuacji, żeby dzieci przyszły

00:07:54.001 --> 00:07:55.381
do mnie i chciały cukierki.

00:07:55.881 --> 00:07:59.741
Ja bym nawet nie dała tych cukierków, no, bo ja nie jem cukierków,

00:07:59.881 --> 00:08:02.001
no, bo jestem na redukcji, tak? Dzieci nie rozumieją tak.

00:08:02.661 --> 00:08:05.341
Więc, u mnie słodyczy się nie szuka, niestety.

00:08:06.001 --> 00:08:10.141
No tak, ale no, no właśnie, dla mnie Halloween nie ma sensu.

00:08:10.701 --> 00:08:16.941
Na przykład. Ale to moja opinia. Dobra. A powiedz mi, co sądzisz, What is it?

00:08:18.481 --> 00:08:21.901
Because everyone wants to be a question. Who wants to be a duch,

00:08:22.041 --> 00:08:27.081
who wants to be a monster, who wants to be a mum, who wants to be a mum.

00:08:27.461 --> 00:08:28.741
What do you think about this?

00:08:29.681 --> 00:08:34.601
What do you think about Halloween? We are talking about Halloween as a day that

00:08:34.601 --> 00:08:36.601
is associated with all the Holy Spirit.

00:08:36.701 --> 00:08:39.021
So, for people who don't live and so on.

00:08:39.381 --> 00:08:42.041
And here, someone who wants to be a mum. How does it mean?

00:08:43.313 --> 00:08:48.753
Because people have an impression and they have a costume and they are happy

00:08:48.753 --> 00:08:52.773
to drink alcohol, do a lot of danger, everything is in the same way.

00:08:53.513 --> 00:08:56.333
It's just a topic to drink, drink alcohol.

00:08:57.693 --> 00:09:02.173
To is a so-called pretext, so to be able to drink, no właśnie.

00:09:02.893 --> 00:09:10.133
A tell me, a if you had to take a costume, what would you take to take a costume?

00:09:11.373 --> 00:09:18.653
And what I would say... What? What? For nothing. For nothing.

00:09:19.393 --> 00:09:25.133
For nothing. I would say this, you know, I would say that I would say for a diabo.

00:09:26.133 --> 00:09:32.813
No, I don't know why, but for a diabo. It's like a kind of just a little just a little.

00:09:33.433 --> 00:09:41.433
It's something funny. Well, we were talking about that is more commercial than normal.

00:09:42.153 --> 00:09:46.213
No, good. Better than the urinary, right?

00:09:46.913 --> 00:09:54.113
No, I don't know. I don't know what the urinary is. It's a difficult topic for me.

00:09:54.793 --> 00:09:59.473
Good. Tell me, if Halloween is a Halloween.

00:10:00.544 --> 00:10:05.964
Pomaga w relacjach międzyludzkich, czy to jest po prostu naprawdę już tak komercja, komercja ostra?

00:10:06.304 --> 00:10:09.564
Czy faktycznie Halloween jakoś wpływa na nas? No bo wiesz, mamy na przykład

00:10:09.564 --> 00:10:13.764
Boże Narodzenie, tak? To też jest jakieś takie dni święto, tak?

00:10:13.844 --> 00:10:16.724
No i właśnie, no i Boże Narodzenie to jest zupełnie coś innego, tak?

00:10:17.304 --> 00:10:19.984
Ty spotykasz się z rodziną, ty jesz, tak?

00:10:20.264 --> 00:10:24.604
Pijesz też, spędzasz czas z rodziną, więc to jest taki ważny dzień.

00:10:24.804 --> 00:10:29.824
No a Halloween, no właśnie, czy on łączy, no bo tak, dzieci idą do szkoły i

00:10:29.824 --> 00:10:31.804
spędzają tam noc, okej, no ale co z tego?

00:10:32.684 --> 00:10:37.104
Jakby, a dorośli? No właśnie, dorośli, bo to święto jest dla dzieci dosłownie,

00:10:37.364 --> 00:10:39.584
no bo ty nie świętujesz, ja też nie.

00:10:39.764 --> 00:10:42.724
Nie wiem, czy ktoś z naszych słuchaczy świętuje Halloween, może napisać,

00:10:43.384 --> 00:10:45.464
ale no nie wiem, wydaje mi się, że nie, zgaduję.

00:10:45.944 --> 00:10:49.904
No właśnie, więc to nie jest święto dla dorosłych, to jest święto dla dzieci, tak?

00:10:50.504 --> 00:10:54.384
Dokładnie, tak. Dzieci, szczęśliwe, to jest impreza dla dzieci.

00:10:55.764 --> 00:10:59.204
Impreza dla dzieci? No bo tak, no, dzieci and you know, it's sweet and so on,

00:10:59.204 --> 00:11:02.984
like we were talking about it. No, because...

00:11:03.544 --> 00:11:07.384
What do you think about the adaptation of these days?

00:11:07.744 --> 00:11:11.704
Because, let's say, that it's imported, because it's not Polish,

00:11:11.864 --> 00:11:13.684
but it's imported from other countries.

00:11:14.424 --> 00:11:17.584
What do you think about the import of such events?

00:11:18.544 --> 00:11:23.904
For example, to Poland? Because we have another event that is imported and not Polish?

00:11:24.324 --> 00:11:30.444
We have Halloween. Save Patrick's Day. Not a lot of this country in the USA.

00:11:30.784 --> 00:11:33.204
St. Patrick's Day is a lot of Australia too.

00:11:33.704 --> 00:11:40.864
So it's March 17th, March 17th. St. Patrick's Day is a long day.

00:11:41.990 --> 00:11:47.770
Because a few countries have a river, a snowboard, a lamp in a yellow.

00:11:48.470 --> 00:11:54.370
I am cool. And an impreza, a big impreza, a carnival. An impreza from the world.

00:11:55.050 --> 00:11:59.570
No, no, but, now I have a question.

00:12:01.510 --> 00:12:06.110
How import such international events? I speak here in Poland,

00:12:06.290 --> 00:12:08.590
because we are in Poland, we're talking about Polish, Polish,

00:12:09.050 --> 00:12:14.550
so, how import such events Where we have our culture,

00:12:15.430 --> 00:12:17.950
our religion, our culture,

00:12:18.830 --> 00:12:23.290
and we have a very strong history of our holiday, and we have a very characteristic holiday.

00:12:23.290 --> 00:12:32.150
And now how the import of events in Europe, in the USA, can influence on us,

00:12:32.290 --> 00:12:34.730
to mean on our history and culture?

00:12:35.050 --> 00:12:42.410
Because these events must be adapted, Halloween adapt. How can we change our culture?

00:12:42.670 --> 00:12:44.730
Because it changes, because it was not Halloween.

00:12:45.470 --> 00:12:49.290
Now it is. It is negative or positive.

00:12:50.910 --> 00:12:51.790
What?

00:12:55.390 --> 00:12:56.090
Pirogi.

00:12:58.350 --> 00:13:01.510
Pirogi. Pirogi. Pirogi.

00:13:07.390 --> 00:13:11.610
Pirogi. How can we change the culture adaptability?

00:13:11.890 --> 00:13:15.490
We all have to do universalism.

00:13:16.270 --> 00:13:21.450
In USA it is Halloween, we can do Halloween in Germany, Halloween in Austria,

00:13:21.650 --> 00:13:24.670
Halloween in Poland, and all of them are all the same.

00:13:24.930 --> 00:13:27.490
Is it good or not?

00:13:27.950 --> 00:13:29.510
No, everything is commercial.

00:13:30.370 --> 00:13:35.950
People can buy something, because sometimes they don't have money,

00:13:35.950 --> 00:13:41.010
but a friend has everything to you and you have to buy for a friend.

00:13:44.463 --> 00:13:49.283
It's all from class, all from class later, all from class later,

00:13:49.283 --> 00:13:52.543
all from class later, all from class later.

00:13:53.823 --> 00:13:59.903
Well, unfortunately. Well, I think that it's not good for universalism,

00:13:59.923 --> 00:14:00.783
because everyone is different.

00:14:01.163 --> 00:14:05.603
And what is the most interesting thing is what is the difference between us.

00:14:05.663 --> 00:14:10.363
Because if we were all the same, it would be hard. Exactly. No.

00:14:11.063 --> 00:14:14.843
We can't be so happy. Then the world was nudny. I'm a teacher.

00:14:15.483 --> 00:14:17.383
Now imagine, that everyone is a teacher.
