| 0:00.0 | Hello listeners welcome back to Luke's English podcast |
| 0:03.6 | here we are it's new episode time |
| 0:06.2 | after a bit of a delay since the last episode I uploaded has it been |
| 0:11.6 | two or three weeks it's been a long time. It feels like a long time anyway. But here we are. I have |
| 0:17.4 | uploaded a couple of premium episodes by the way in that period as premium Leptsters will know. But here we go new episode time and this |
| 0:27.4 | one is episode number 749 and it's all about the Luke's English podcast design competition and we will be choosing the winners so you're going to find out the winners of the competition |

| 1:19.9 | Now we can't choose all of these designs for the merchandise store. We can only choose a few. |
| 1:26.9 | So most of the people are going to be rejected. Most of the entries will be rejected. |
| 1:31.8 | So listen out for the ways in which James and I use language |
| 1:35.2 | in a diplomatic way or ways in which we use hedging to soften our feedback so that we can give essentially negative responses or negative feedback, |
| 1:48.4 | but in a nice way without hurting the feelings of the people who we are rejecting. |
