Today's poem is Portrait of My Mother Studying for Her Citizenship Exam by Eduardo Martínez-Leyva. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Major writes… “With watery eyes, Mrs. Kumar shared the feelings of being in a room full of people with different histories and cultures, all raising their hands together, in unison, giving voice to a shared belief in the freedoms espoused by their new country. Her story is but one of many. Today's poem tells another story of a path to citizenship. Such stories deepen my appreciation for the principle of ‘We, the people.'” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.

Rob and the crew open the show talking out about our impending 1-year anniversary, and the conversation about "who wears #52" sparks a really interesting conversation about Ray Lewis. Plus Rob weighs in on Tristan Thompson and LeBron having abusive fans ejected from games, and how he has only reached that point with a couple of fans ever in his life. Plus it's a huge week of college football news, and Rob (as an Alabama alum) has plenty to say about the SEC Championship Game, and gives his take on both Lincoln Riley and Brian Kelly bouncing to new high profile jobs. And in honor of Enes Kanter Freedom becoming a US citizen this week, both Robert Horry and B-Dog take turns trying to answer questions from the US Citizenship exam... and it's NOT easy!

If you are studying for the US Citizenship Test, an American history buff, improving your English, or maybe all three, this lesson in slow English is for you. In this lesson, I talk about some of the causes of the Mexican-American War, the US president, James K. Polk, and some of the aftermath of the Mexican-American War. Many of the soldiers who fought in this war would go on to fight in the American Civil War. Some of the English vocabulary word I explain are: annex, independence, disputes, recognize, reelection, and campaign.

There was no How to Live in Denmark podcast last week, and I apologize for that. I have been busy studying for my Danish citizenship exam. As some of you may know, Denmark is allowing double citizenship as of next year. That means you're are allowed to keep your home country passport - in my case, USA - while also becoming a Danish citizen. Personally, I'm a little concerned that this may be overturned if a right wing government takes power next year. Danske Folkeparti, which is now the biggest party in Denmark, is passionately opposed to it. So like supermarket prices, this offer may be for a limited time only. So, I decided to get my Danish citizenship at the first opportunity. To become a Danish citizen, you have to take a Danish language test and a citizenship test that's tests your knowledge of Denmark and Danish culture. That's the test I will take on Tuesday. It's only given twice a year, and it costs 700 crowns to take, so you might as well get it right the first time. So I have been studying hard. Actually, I started out by studying the wrong thing. There were several quizzes online that tested your knowledge of Danish history - like Harold Bluetooth. Did you know your Bluetooth headset was named after 10th century Danish King? I did not. Bluetooth was the guy who brought Christianity to Denmark. Whether or not he actually had blue teeth, which suggests pretty bad dentistry, remains unknown. So I took the online practice quizzes, and I learned a lot of other things. I learned about King Christian the Fourth, who build the round tower in Copenhagen. And I learned about King Christian the Seventh, who was crazy and ended up in a movie being portrayed in a movie that also starred Mads Mikkelsen.
