| 0:00.0 | Hello, everyone, and welcome to Books Unbound, the podcast where we Unbind books to get to their hearts with your host's us. It's Ariel and Raleen. Hello. Hello, hello. Hello, hello, hello. |
| 0:22.4 | We have an odd little time warp going on here. |
| 0:29.1 | So this is what we're going to start with, explaining time travel. |
| 0:35.0 | We all need to start thinking fourth dimensionally, okay? Okay. Basically, as you all know, |
| 0:43.6 | we went on summer vacation. We took August off. We got, I got married. You came to the |
| 0:52.1 | wedding. I went camping. You went went camping i went on my honeymoon except none of that |
| 1:00.0 | has happened yet needle scratch all that's fake today is july 21st god it's crazy when you say it like that. |
| 1:20.9 | But, obviously, sometimes in the world of entertainment, things have to be filmed out of order, right? |
| 1:32.4 | And basically, in order for us to take August off and come back on September 1st, we would have had to record at the end of August, which completely defeats the purpose of recording and of taking August off. So, |
| 1:39.4 | we're recording this at the end of July. This is going to come out September 1st, which means we're back, |
| 1:45.5 | baby. The podcast is back. We all had a great time. But it's also weird because we haven't left. |
| 1:53.4 | We haven't gotten to enjoy all of those fun things we just talked about. Yeah, but soon. But |
| 1:58.6 | when this episode comes out, I'll be on my honeymoon. Yeah. |
| 2:04.6 | You're literally still actually not home yet. Yeah, I'm not back, actually. Let me look at the |
| 2:11.4 | schedule. Yeah, I don't get back until the weekend. So I'm in the middle of a beautiful adventure. Then we'll get home. |
| 2:20.6 | Then I'll get home and Connor will get home. We're going to then record on the 8th and that episode |
| 2:26.9 | will come out on the 15th. Yeah. Because if you remember, we have shifted to a new every other week |
| 2:32.1 | schedule on the podcast. And so in two weeks from when this comes |
| 2:38.0 | out, you're going to get the episode you actually really want, which is going to be the massive |
| 2:44.5 | wedding update going over all of the adventures we've been having and doing a big book haul. |
| 2:52.6 | Yeah. |
| 2:53.6 | Because there's one thing I do know. |
