You see, Feifei, you have to be careful not to be too close to the microphone when you speak,
菲菲你看，你必须要当心，说话的时候别离麦克风太近，
because the pressure of your breath will create this sound -
因为你呼吸的压力，会发出这种声音，
we call that a 'pop' and the recording will sound bad and our listeners will complain.

Mansplaining is when a man explains something to a woman as if they are stupid or knows less about a subject simply because she is a woman.
