#563 If the EU Fell: Borders, Money and a New Reality
Welcome to our Polish Podcast. Hosts Roy and Anja discuss a series of "what if" scenarios — from the collapse of the EU, a third world war, rising pension numbers, human microchips and hidden cancer cures, to space tourism, internet control and home robots.
“Co jeśli” is the Polish way to ask “What if…?”—and in this bite-sized episode you’ll say it like a native day-dreamer.
First you hear the phrase at real speed, then slowed down so you can copy the soft “ć” and the gentle “jeśli.”
We drop it into three imagination-ready sentences:
– “Co jeśli zdam ten egzamin?” (What if I pass this exam?)
– “Co jeśli się pomylę?” (What if I’m wrong?)
– “Co jeśli to zadziała?” (What if it works?)
Repeat-along track included—perfect while you stare out the window or plan your next big move.
Challenge: DM us your boldest Polish “Co jeśli…” question and we’ll answer it in next week’s episode.

You'll find them in the show notes. And if you want to get lessons from Anja in Polish or in Spanish, you'll find her details in the show notes, both on the audio and the video. DzieÅ dobry, Anja. DzieÅ dobry. Jak siÄ masz? Dobrze. Everything is in the same way. Everything is in the same way. I'm so excited. Today I'm going to talk a little bit about grammatical. I wanted to talk about what would happen.
0:42 What would happen, if something happened. And I have a few interesting questions. And I'm going to talk a little bit about it. In Polish, when we think about it is often when we think about it. So, if we think about it, we think about it. And we think about it. We think about it. We think about it.
1:23 What would it be if I saw something? Tak, tak, tak. No i teraz, powiedz mi Roy, tak, mam kilka wÅaÅnie takich pytaÅ sytuacyjnych na temat, których chciaÅabym poznaÄ w TwojÄ opinii oczywiÅcie. Może byÄ bardzo ciekawie. Dobra, to powiedz mi Roy, w takim razie, co by byÅo, gdyby, jak myÅlisz? Co by byÅo, gdyby when the European Union fell down. So, when European EU is closed, right? No, it's closed, it's just falling. It means that every country comes from the world.
2:03 Yes, I think that it will be very good, because everyone doesn't know. I think that... I think that... It will be very good. It was very good, because I think that people don't know how they organize it, and everything is not for people, everything is control, and it's good, because, for example, they can go to the country without problems, so it's good. One currency is also good, because it's always a value. For example, when you spend from the USA, dollar and euro, there are always money, right?
2:51 You have to give it from 1 to 5%. So when everything has euro, but here it's not, but it's always good. No, in Poland it's gold. It's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's. No wÅaÅnie, w Polsce jest zÅoty, nie euro, czyli tutaj ten argument, że jedna waluta jest dobra. Okej, jedna waluta, ale w innych krajach. W Polsce jest zÅoty. Tak, ale nie ma... I don't know, sovereignty, because in the EU you have to do everything in the country, and you have to do everything in the country, and you have to do everything in the country, because there is no sovereignty.
3:34 And sometimes, for example, you want to buy a lot of immigrants, right? And our country is very bad now. It's not a bad thing. But our country is very bad now. And Great Britain is too. So it's not good. And the EU says, oh, it must be. And when you do it, it will be a mandate. So it's not normal. It's not good for everything. Right, so you said that if the European Union was falling, it would be good, right?
4:16 Yes. So now let's go on the way. We are still more pessimistic, not more pessimistic. What would be, if the third world was the third world war was between the most powerful countries of the world? The most powerful countries of the world, which have the highest power of the world. What would be, if the war was going on? When people think that they will go to war for the politicians who say, please, sit on the chair and your children will not live in 20 years.
5:03 So, don't have a war for anyone who has no problem with anyone, for people who say, please, please. And I think that it's very important when you have to go to war, always write your name. Always write your name. Always write your name. All capital. And it's not yours. It's not yours. It's corporate entry. I'm Roy Collins living soul. I'm a person. And when you write It must be it. It's not yours. And it's all capital.
5:46 And when you write back, to no, to nie ja, ja jestem lewy co, nie może robiÄ, o, musisz iÅÄ do wojna. To jest bardzo ważne. And chyba niestety 99, krótka 99, nie wie to. Ale bardzo ważne. No wiesz, ludzie raczej nie interesujÄ ten temat, no bo gdzieÅ jednak nikt nie myÅli o tym, że to mogÅoby siÄ zdarzyÄ, tak? Å»e to mogÅoby siÄ zdarzyÄ. No i tak, czyli generalnie, pod sumowujÄ c, co by byÅo, if it was like the third war? It means, it was good, it was bad, what would it be? Definitely bad, it never is good, because always there is a lot of war, there is so many people who live, there will always be control, there will be normal life.
6:38 Better not be war. Okay, but here again, The hypothesis, or rather a condition, because it is a condition, is that it is better, to not be war. In this way, we express this. This is our wish, but also... What if it was? Better to not be. Okay. Now, tell me what... What if it was... What if it was, if the number of emerytums in Europe increased twice? Two-krotnie.
7:25 Jakie byÅyby konsekwencje? Bo rozmawiamy o konsekwencjach sytuacji hipotetycznej. Bo takiej sytuacji jeszcze nie ma. Ale mogÅaby byÄ. Tak? W przyszÅoÅci. I co by byÅo, gdyby ona byÅa? Ta sytuacja. Tak? MówiÄ. Jej teraz nie ma. Wszystko jest ok. Ale kto wie? W przyszÅoÅci może coÅ siÄ zmieni. I my teraz tutaj rozmawiamy wÅaÅnie o tej konsekwencji. which there is still not, but it may be. So what would it be if the amount of emerytums would increase in the same way? For example, there will not be money for people, I think it will be a situation.
8:09 Maybe so, but at the moment it is a situation. I have spoken with my partner, professor from Hungary. Wengler. I on mówi, ten Obama, ten prezydent od Wengler, weź pieniÄ dze od weź pieniÄ dze od emerytora. Nie bÄdzie problem. And chyba wszystko kraj robiÄ też. So, ty pracuje caÅe życie. Przed byÅem 60, potem 65. Now I'm probably 68, 70.
8:57 I even don't know, honestly. I think I'm all right. I'm 70, but... Yes, it's more and it won't be money, it's better to organize your finances. Yes, it won't be money. And here is another question of how we lived, how we lived in these years. Emerytery, in the sense. Okay, tell me, what would it be, if people had in their body some microchip. Let's say here. No, I understand.
9:39 No, I understand. No, I understand. People do this. They can open the door, they can pay for everything and I think that people work on Microsoft and I think that's fine. It's very, very not good. It's a frequency, right? Just clear. Yes, and it will not be healthy for your whole body. I think that people will also do it for the brain and they will do it better, but it is not healthy. So, you just said about these chips, which, I don't know, open the door, or they pay a card, and I thought about these chips that have some information that are coded for us.
10:32 So if I am somewhere, it's just that someone scan this chip and will know everything about me. Where I am, where I am, how many years I do it. So, are these chips are positive? Yes. They are not at all, right? People know about this, because we have fingers, finger prints and eyes too. It's all, but you have control. You can do everything and do it, because I think you have to do it. I am free. We are free. We are free and we are free.
11:14 We are free and we are free. Yes, but when you think about the control, you must know that you are free. Yes, so, well, it would be bad, it would be bad, it would be bad, it would be bad, it would I just often talk about it. What would be it, if some companies, some pharmaceutical companies found out bad. The rake is said that the methods and the methods that are related to the rake, that they think about the fight against the rake, but they think that they still don't have.
12:00 No, exactly, they still don't have. What would be, if someone found a rake? Unfortunately, there may be this rake, but pharmaceuticals will never be, because you want to pay for your whole life. You have to buy, buy, buy, buy. Everything is from money, but it's natural from rake. So, yeah, wszystko chciaÅbyÅ bÄdzie od pharmaceuticals i bÄdzie ludzi bÄdzie stroje szybko, ale nie bÄdzie od... Musisz uczyÄ samo, bo jest dużo aplikacji, noni juice, tak, mniejsze suk, bez suk.
12:47 Wszystko bÄdzie dobrze. Możesz wymieniÄ od raka teraz, ale niestety nie bÄdzie od pharmaceuticals. Aha, czyli tutaj chodzi o to, że my sami musimy prewencyjnie dziaÅaÄ, a raczej jakieÅ firmy farmaceutyczne nam nie pomogÄ . No dobra, czyli byÅoby źle, tak? ByÅoby źle, byÅoby źle, no dobrze. A powiedz mi w takim razie, co by byÅo, gdyby loty w kosmos, tak, loty w kosmos, byÅy w ofercie biur podróży. To znaczy, wyobraź sobie, że tak samo jak chcemy jechaÄ na wakacje, nie wiem, do Egiptu czy do Turcji, ofieramy sobie i sobie rezerwujemy wycieczkÄ w kosmos na wakacje.
13:36 No wÅaÅnie, to co by byÅo, gdyby takie wycieczki byÅy dostÄpne? Thank you. That... ...nesteadly, it won't be. You said it won't be. It won't be. If it was true, that people from 1969 until... Moon? What's Moon? The Moon? The Moon? James is... It will be 10 years later, or 30 years later, because everything is money. It can't be. You can't return. You're lying. You're lying.
14:17 And I think you're not going to. So, I know. Elon Musk said, all the balls, and everything will be. And Richard Branson, Galactica, can't pay 200 000 dollars. You're lying. You're lying. You're lying. You're lying. You're lying. Because, you know, it's all the truth, what people say about this cosmos. That's all. So, what would be, if these were available, if these were available? What would be? What would be?
15:05 If it was possible, it would be a problem. because maybe you go back to the 21st century and you are 50 years old, right? Yes, because it's time to be different. It's very interesting, very interesting, right? It's always very interesting. Okay, well, tell me in the meantime, What would be, if the Internet was completely controlled by every country? Something like that in Korea.
15:46 I have a lot of control. I always have a sense of it. Everything. The whole time. The podcast is always... There is control now. Oh, yes, cool. Oh, I, I, I, we are Cisco. So, yes, control of Cisco on the internet. That telephone page. But I remember, I have, Google i zawsze uns e-mail, tak? Delix e-mail, tak? I jeden raz, ja mam biznes, musi byÄ Microsoft Outlook, tak? I ja connect i wszystko e-mail wracasz. Wszystko. Kto byÅo uns, wracasz. Nigdy jest deli, tak?
16:27 So masz kontrol, ty jest wszystko i uwaga, co pisz. Uwaga, co piszesz tu? So here we can't even say what we can say when we were, because you said that already. I have a lot of time. I have a Facebook, I have a linktree, I have a podcast to uns. I think I have a podcast to uns. I have three from Awakening, Pinch, odstrowia, Frequencies, meditation podcast, uns. So, let's take a look at TikTok, too. Because you don't know what I'm talking about. Just, I'm not talking about it. So, it's not a hypothesis, it's a fact.
17:08 Exactly, it's a fact. It's a fact. Okay. So, tell me, here we're going to be in this AI. I have a question, what would be, if the home robots were somehow accessible for everyone? What would be? I would say that they would be more advanced robots. I know that everyone has an express to kaw, a microphone, but it's like a robot, They are even like humanoidal. It's a Michelin star cooking.
17:49 Yes, that's it. Robot, who cook or... It can do everything. It can be love. Robot can be at home and maybe be your wife or your husband. What would it be if it would be like this? If there were people, there would be some relationships between robots and people. What would it be then? What would it be? Everything is now. Yes, it is. There will be more and more, but the problem is, I like to cook, because when I cook, you have your own food, when you do nothing, I don't want to do anything, I don't want to do anything, I don't want to do anything.
18:40 What is the fact of life? Because now many people have a lot of work from AI. They don't think about it, because they think about what is your job. So, it will be mine, mine, mine. Who will buy a life? Who will make a life? 90% who will not work, will not work, how can I buy the time? And also, I speak from Awakening Podcast from AI many times and there was a time, when the robot will be silent. So you can do it.
19:21 There was a Pomidor and there was a hacker system. You can do it. I don't want to open the door to this robot. You must be careful. Don't open the door to this robot. I don't plan to open the door to this robot. So, I just wanted to talk about what was going on in this situation, which is a hypothetical situation. When we got to the point, some situations are already real, which already is, so it is not a hypothesis, but in other situations are also a hypothesis.
20:02 And so I will leave the listeners here with a question, also a hypothesis, which will be answered in the comments. So I will leave you with a question first, which I will also ask Royowi. And I will leave it here. What would be, if the European Union would break? That was the first question, which I asked, Roy. And I am going to finish this question. I am going to ask them to all of our listeners. I am going to say in the comments. We use the construction of what would be. What would be?
20:42 I am going to read your opinion. I think that is a very important topic. Because these kinds of things in politics are like a little anti. And what if it was, if it broke out. I think it's a interesting question. And you can write something in Polish. You can write your opinion in Polish. Very nice. You can write your opinion in Polish. Thank you for the conversation. And do you see in the next podcast. Thank you very much. and yes so you get lessons from my uh both in polish and spanish you'll find the links in the show notes but in the audio video find everything about me scan the QR code go to rycon.com find my six podcasts as well as my two school groups and if you're looking for a virtual assistance go to va.world be sure to give us a thumbs up five star rating share with your friends and comment and he loves to read the comments until next week take care.
