| 0:00.0 | Hi, everybody. There's really no smooth or easy way to start this episode off. We are coming here to share a little bit of personal news. We have decided to separate as a couple. And we have shared so much of our life, so much of our relationship with you. So that's why we wanted to come on here and |
| 0:22.3 | share this too. These past 10 years have given us so much. And launching this podcast and sharing |
| 0:30.7 | this space has been one of our favorite things that we've done together. It's going to look a |
| 0:36.3 | little bit different moving forward, obviously. |
| 0:38.6 | Our relationship was such a huge part of this podcast for you guys, but also for us from our |
| 0:45.2 | Bickers to Are You a Megan, Are You Sue? And all the little funny stories that we shared and were a part of in |
| 0:52.0 | between. So we really wanted to bring this here as well |
| 0:56.2 | and be really transparent with all of you. We aren't going to be hosting this pod together every |
| 1:02.4 | week. We are both really sad to be losing this space. It's been so meaningful to us, especially |

| 1:12.3 | not just together, but with you as well. |
| 1:14.4 | But we aren't going anywhere. |
| 1:15.9 | We're going to do a little trade-off hosting six more special episodes of a touch more. |
| 1:21.6 | That'll be our farewell to you all and to this space. |
| 1:26.1 | But Birds Eye View is returning for its second season, |
| 1:28.8 | and I'm so excited for that, and I can't wait to see how it evolves. I've got a little news to |
| 1:34.1 | share also, and something new that really I'm very excited to bring to you. I'm doing a little |
| 1:40.1 | special series, World Cup edition of ATM around the World Cup this summer. And then I'm also |
| 1:46.2 | going to be following in Sue's footsteps and launching my own show later in the summer. And I'm |
| 1:51.2 | really excited to bring that to everybody. I guess I just want to say, like, I hope you all know |
| 1:58.9 | we put a lot of thought and care into this. It's a |
| 2:03.0 | decision that we made together. We're still going to be there for all of you and for each other. |
