Hello, welcome to Six Minute English, I'm Rob.
And I'm Katherine.
So, Katherine, how long do you spend on your smartphone?
My smartphone, not that long, really only about 18 or 19 hours.
No, sorry, I meant in a day, not in a week.
That's what I meant to, Rob, a day.
Oh, wow, so you've even got it right here.
Yep, got it now, Rob.
Yes, I should, I should actually tell you that I suffer from FOMO.
FOMO.
FOMO, fear of missing out.
Something cool or interesting might be happening.
Somewhere, Rob, and I want to be sure I catch it.
So, I have to keep checking my phone to make sure, you know,
I don't miss out on anything.
Oh, so we could call you a FUBBA.
Hello, I said so you're a FUBBA, someone who ignores other people because you'd rather look at your phone.
Yeah, yeah, that's right, yeah.
