| 0:10.7 | Hello ladies and gentlemen welcome to another episode of Luke's English |
| 0:14.2 | podcast in this one I'm just going to try and improvise a story to you right so I've |
| 0:21.9 | done this kind of thing before. There was an episode a while ago called |
| 0:26.4 | The Pink Gorilla episode where I just tried to make up a story off the top of my head |
| 0:31.8 | and see if I could sort of make it long and weird and crazy |
