The intro 

(Listening Comprehension)

Hey, what's up folks? It's Mr.Wong here. Here's a quick joke for you:

Late one night a drunk guy is showing some friends around his brand new apartment. The last stop is the bedroom, where a big brass gong sits next to the bed. "Hey, what's that gong for?", his friend asks. "It's not a gong," the drunk replies, "It's a talking clock." "How does it work?" 

The guy picks up the hammer and gives the gong an ear-shattering pound. Suddenly, someone on the otherside of the wall screams, "You asshole! It's 3:30 in the god damn morning!" Ohh man! That's a smart way to tell time. Alright, so today's phrase of the day is "wear the pants", check it out!
