TRANSCRIPT

Rosie (00:12)
This is a very special episode. It's a very short one. I am recording and you're flapping yourself with your t-shirt. You know, woo! It's a very special one because...

Roula (00:12)
So glad.

You're recording!

Now, the people are watching.

you

Rosie (00:27)
We are going to take two weeks off. We have worked so hard on this podcast. And the reason this came about, because Roula and I are hard workers, I think we both workaholics. I just have this feeling. But Roula is going with her family to Egypt. she said, Rosie, we need to take time off recording over this time. And as time went on, she said, hey, how about we just don't publish for two weeks? Like this is ⁓ a holiday for the podcast as well. And I went, you know what? That's an awesome idea. I need a break too.

So that's that's the announcement. Roula, what do you have to say?

Roula (01:02)
I'm very grateful that you've given me these two weeks off because I really know that you wouldn't stop at all. It wouldn't even cross your mind.

Rosie (01:10)
That sounds bad, me letting you, me letting you. That's not how we work. I think it's gonna

be good for both of us just to switch off for a bit, because the podcast is kind of our life and we love it, but sometimes it's good to switch off. I think we're gonna come back really refreshed. We've got a whole bunch of episodes in the bank, so there won't be pressure. But while we're away...

Share the podcast please with people and check that you're following the podcast and leave a rating and a comment and an email and a voice message and all the things because I'm demanding and you've got to do what I say. Thank you.

Roula (01:49)
you know, it's good to have, we will give you a pack of episodes, like starter episodes. And this hit Rosie in the face now, because I didn't discuss this with her. ⁓ I don't have the starter. I don't have the starter episodes now, but you can see them in the show notes. So if you episode to start listening to, you can after that binge listen our podcast, the most

Rosie (02:00)
No, what the fuck? I'm so confused.

So maybe

we'll put a list of our favorite ones maybe. Okay. And because we're away for two weeks, that's 10 episodes. So should we put a list of 10? Okay.

Roula (02:19)
Yes, yes, yeah, that makes it easier.

Yes. And you know,

because we have over 100 episodes, it's hard for people to start. Where do I start? So we will give them some place to start. And please follow me on Instagram. You will see also my link in the show notes. And I'm saying follow me because this is where the Rosie and Trula is active. ⁓

Rosie (02:34)
Yeah, that's a good idea.

The Ruler Show has an Instagram

page too, but Roula's page is what has traction. Go follow both of them. You can follow me, but Ruler's the one who's like all in, got our shit together. We've also got a TikTok, I've got a TikTok. Just all the links are in the description. It goes there every episode. Yes, it does.

Roula (02:53)
Yes.

They all help us.

Rosie (03:06)
And please share the podcast with at least one person. That would mean the world because ultimately we want these episodes to go to more people. I think it helps us feel more connected and have a bit of a laugh, but also think about the deeper topics too. So that would be an amazing gift to us.

Roula (03:21)
And one

more thing. So now we're giving you, my dear listeners, something to keep you busy while you're relaxing or doing chores in the house, working on your garden, whatever you're spending your time with this vacation. And I want you to give us something because it would be awesome if you leave us a message on how are you spending your summer. This is something we will listen to on our vacation.

So if you leave us a voice message on our website or send us a text message, an email, we will be listening to what you're doing And it feels like a two-way street. So I love it. What do you think, Rosie?

Rosie (04:02)
Cool. We give you a playlist

of good episodes to listen to, you send us a message. Now I gotta pull you up Roula, because some of us don't live in the Northern Hemisphere and it is winter for us. So whatever season it is, let us know what you're doing. You might not even be on holiday. I'm not on holiday. So just let us know what you're up to. What's going on for you? What's on your mind? Send us a question. Tell us a joke. Anything. Okay. thank you.

Roula (04:28)
This is why I love you, Rozy. You correct me.

You fill in my blanks. You give you like you make a nice turn for my sentences in English. I appreciate you.

Rosie (04:40)
I appreciate you and I think this is why it works right? We love each other for our differences and our similarities so this kind of is almost five minutes it's probably going to be five minutes by the time the intro and outro goes so was it short? I guess shorter than usual? Yeah bye see ya.

Roula (04:57)
Ciao!
