‘You think this is Aladdin?’: Comedian stuck in Dubai on US evacuation

CNN · 188,204 بازدید · اضافه شده 2 ماه پیش

خلاصه هوش مصنوعی

This news segment explores the challenges faced by Americans stranded in the Middle East during a regional crisis. It features an interview with comedian Marcel Reyes, who uses "levity" and pop culture references—like *Aladdin* and *The Hunger Games*—to describe his frustration with the U.S. State Department’s evacuation delays. For language learners, this video offers an excellent opportunity to practice listening to natural, rapid-fire conversational English paired with formal news reporting. You will gain exposure to high-level vocabulary regarding travel, politics, and emotional resilience, including terms like "gaslight," "interception," and "silver lining." Learners will also observe how native speakers use irony and humor to navigate high-stress situations.

You think this is Aladdin?

00:01

the airports are closed.

00:02

The airspace is closed.

00:03

You couldn't tell me this last week.

00:05

You're messing with me.

00:06

Leave now. When? Where? What? Who?

00:09

Some hopeful news

00:10

for the thousands of Americans

00:12

stuck in the Middle East.

00:13

The State Department

00:14

says a charter flight full of U.S.

00:16

citizens has left

00:17

the region tonight,

00:19

adding that more flights are on the way.

00:21

This comes just days

00:22

after Americans were urged to leave

00:24

the Middle East immediately.

00:27

Those Americans who need help

00:28

getting out

00:28

have been advised to call the 24/7

00:31

State Department hotline at 1202501 4444.

00:37

But as recently as yesterday,

00:39

people calling

00:39

that number

00:40

heard this message telling them, well,

00:43

you're on your own.

00:46

If you are calling about the crisis

00:47

in the Middle East, please press one.

00:53

government for assisted departure

00:55

or evacuation at this time.

00:57

There are currently no United States

00:59

evacuation points.

01:01

Now, to be clear,

01:03

that message has since been changed

01:06

and Americans in need of help

01:08

are still advised to call that number.

01:11

But the incident has only added

01:12

to the anxiety of those people

01:13

who are still stuck overseas.

01:15

My next guest,

01:16

though, is turning to levity

01:18

to try to get through it all.

01:21

America just put out a statement

01:22

that if you're an American

01:23

in the Middle East,

01:24

you need to leave now ASAP.

01:26

I'm in the Middle East right now.

01:28

Tell me please,

01:29

how am I supposed to leave?

01:30

You want me to happen on magic carpet

01:32

The airspace is closed.

01:37

01:39

You're messing with me.

01:40

Leave now.

01:40

When? Where? What?

01:42

Who? Wow.

01:43

No, honestly,

01:43

if I could do a magic carpet, I leave.

01:46

If you have information which you might

01:47

tell me how to turn this carpet.

01:49

And I'll whole new world

01:50

back to California.

01:52

01:59

for over a week.

02:00

I understand

02:01

02:02

to visit family and friends,

02:03

but can you tell me

02:04

at what point did it become clear

02:06

that you wouldn't be able to leave?

02:10

It was very clear around like 4 p.m.

02:13

02:16

the air, I was like,

02:18

I call my mom,

02:18

my mom, I'm not coming home.

02:19

And she was not happy to hear that,

02:20

to say the least.

02:21

I'm sure she wasn't.

02:23

I mean,

02:23

we we've kind of walked

02:24

through this journey with you.

02:25

You actually recorded your experience

02:27

calling that hotline just yesterday.

02:29

I want to

02:29

I want to play that moment for people.
